parallel-prs
Batch-process multiple issues into draft PRs using parallel worktrees. Use when implementing several related issues simultaneously, creating multiple PRs in parallel, or batch-processing a backlog.
When & Why to Use This Skill
This Claude skill automates the software development lifecycle by batch-processing multiple issues into draft Pull Requests using parallel Git worktrees. It streamlines developer workflows by handling issue fetching, environment setup, code implementation, and PR creation in a single, parallelized operation, significantly reducing manual overhead for managing backlogs and related tasks.
Use Cases
- Efficient Backlog Grooming: Automatically convert a batch of up to five low-priority issues or technical debt items into draft PRs to accelerate project maintenance.
- Parallel Feature Development: Implement multiple related sub-tasks of a large feature simultaneously, utilizing parallel worktrees to maintain clean, isolated environments without context switching.
- Automated PR Initialization: Streamline the creation of draft PRs across different branches, ensuring consistent issue linking (e.g., 'Closes #123') and initial implementation agents are deployed correctly.

Constraints
- Batch size: 5 issues max (larger batches split automatically)
- No worktree cleanup: PRs may need iteration after CI feedback
- Issue linking:
Closes #123in PR body (not commit)
Workflow
- Load
linear,github, orgitlabskill; fetch issue details - Ask user to clarify ambiguities upfront
- Plan agents verify paths/line numbers in parallel
- Create worktrees with
wt switch --create - Implementation agents commit, push, load
pull-requestskill, create PR - Monitor CI for failures
