SuperPlane Integration: Log Issues to GitHub
Use this skill when creating integration issues on GitHub from prepared template files. You need GitHub MCP (e.g. user-github) with projects permissions so you can create issues, set SuperPlane Board fields (Integration Status, Priority), and attach child issues as sub-issues of the base. No manual Board or sub-issue setup is required. Source content lives under tmp/integrations_pm/issues/.
Prerequisites
- •GitHub MCP available with issue and projects permissions (for Board fields and sub-issue links).
- •Repository: SuperPlane GitHub repo (owner/repo where issues are created).
- •Source content: Markdown files under
tmp/integrations_pm/issues/— base underbase/p1/orbase/p2/, components underp1/orp2/. File names:{integration}_base.md,{integration}_{component}.md. - •Progress tracking: Create or update a temporary document in
tmp/integrations_pm/(e.g.progress.mdorlog-progress-{integration}.md) at the start and after each issue created, so you don’t lose track after context summary.
Workflow overview
- •Create/update a progress doc in
tmp/integrations_pm/listing the integration, base file, component files, and (as you go) created issue numbers. - •Create the base issue first (one per integration). Assign labels and SuperPlane Board fields. Log base issue number in the progress doc.
- •Create child issues one per component, sequentially (one by one) to avoid API rate limiting. For each: create issue, set parent/sub-issue link, assign labels and Board fields, then update progress doc.
- •Update list.md (if present): in
tmp/integrations_pm/issues/list.md, set checkbox to[x]for each created issue. - •Ask the user to review on GitHub and confirm.
- •Once the user confirms, clean up: remove the progress doc and any other temporary files created for this run (e.g. under
tmp/integrations_pm/for this integration).
Step 1: Progress tracking
- •Before creating any issue, create or open a progress document in
tmp/integrations_pm/(e.g.log-progress-consul.md). - •Contents: Integration name, base file path, list of component file paths, then as you create issues: base issue #, then each child issue #.
- •After each created issue (base or child), append to this doc so that after context summary you can resume from the last created issue.
Step 2: Create the base issue
- •Locate the base file:
tmp/integrations_pm/issues/base/p1/{integration}_base.mdorbase/p2/(e.g.consul_base.md). - •Build the issue from the file:
- •Title: From
### Title(e.g.[Consul] Base). Do not put the title line in the body. - •Body: IMPORTANT block, Description, Suggested Connection Method, Acceptance Criteria, Follow up tasks, Reference — no
### Titleor backtick title line; no### Priorityor priority value line (Priority is set via Board).
- •Title: From
- •Create the issue via GitHub MCP with title and body as above.
- •Labels: Add
integrationandrefinementto the issue. - •SuperPlane Board (via MCP projects):
- •Add the issue to the SuperPlane Board project (
add_project_itemwith owner, project_number 2, item_owner, item_repo, item_typeissue, issue_number). - •Set Board fields (required — do not skip): Adding an issue does not set Integration Status or Priority. Get the new item's numeric id via
list_project_items(e.g. querytitle:*[IntegrationName]*), find the item whose Title matches the issue you just created; then callupdate_project_itemtwice for that item — once Integration Status = Backlog (field id and Backlog option id fromlist_project_fields), once Priority = agreed P1–P4 (field id and P1/P2/P3/P4 option id fromlist_project_fields). Field ids inupdated_fieldmust be numbers.
- •Add the issue to the SuperPlane Board project (
- •Note the base issue number (e.g.
#1912) and write it in the progress doc. You need it for every child issue body and for linking sub-issues.
Step 3: Create child issues (one per component, sequentially)
- •Find component files: Under
tmp/integrations_pm/issues/p1/orp2/, all{integration}_*.mdexcept{integration}_base.md(e.g.consul_get_kv.md,consul_register_service.md). Usetmp/integrations_pm/issues/list.mdif present for the exact list. - •For each component file, one at a time (to avoid rate limiting):
- •Build the issue:
- •Title: From
### Titlein the file (e.g.[Consul] Get KV). Do not put the title in the body. - •Body: First line must be
**Parent (base integration):** #BASE_ISSUE_NUMBER, then a blank line, then the rest of the file content without the### Titleand backtick title line and without the### Priorityand priority value line (Priority is set via Board). Include IMPORTANT block, Description, Use Cases, Configuration, Outputs, Acceptance Criteria, Reference.
- •Title: From
- •Create the issue via MCP with this title and body.
- •Labels: Add
integrationandrefinement. - •SuperPlane Board: Add to project with
add_project_item. Then set Board fields (required — do not skip): get the new item's numeric id vialist_project_items(e.g. querytitle:*[IntegrationName]*), then callupdate_project_itemtwice for that item — once Integration Status = Backlog (field id and Backlog option id fromlist_project_fields), once Priority = agreed P1–P4 (field id and P1/P2/P3/P4 option id fromlist_project_fields). Field ids inupdated_fieldmust be numbers. - •Sub-issue link (via MCP projects): Attach this issue as a sub-issue of the base issue so the Board shows the hierarchy. The parent reference in the body is also required.
- •Update progress doc with this child issue number, then proceed to the next component.
- •Build the issue:
- •Create issues sequentially; do not batch many creates in parallel to avoid GitHub API rate limits.
Step 4: Update list.md (if present)
- •In
tmp/integrations_pm/issues/list.md, for each issue created (base and each child), change the corresponding line from- [ ]to- [x](same indentation and filename). - •This keeps the checklist in sync with what exists on GitHub.
Step 5: User review and cleanup
- •Ask the user to review the created issues on GitHub (base, children, labels, Board fields, sub-issue links) and confirm.
- •After user confirms: Delete the progress document and any other temporary files created for this logging run (e.g.
tmp/integrations_pm/log-progress-{integration}.md). Do not delete the source issue template files unless the user explicitly asks to clean those too.
Summary checklist (per integration)
- • Create/update progress doc in
tmp/integrations_pm/before starting. - • Create one base issue first; exclude
### Titleand### Priorityfrom body; add labelsintegration,refinement; add to Board then set Board fields viaupdate_project_item(Integration Status = Backlog, Priority = agreed P1–P4) — get item id fromlist_project_items; do not skip this. - • Create one child issue per component sequentially; body starts with
**Parent (base integration):** #BASE_ISSUE_NUMBER; exclude### Titleand### Priorityfrom body; same labels; add to Board then set Board fields viaupdate_project_itemfor that item; attach as sub-issue of base via MCP (projects). - • After each issue, update progress doc; then update
list.mdcheckboxes if the file exists. - • Ask user to review on GitHub; after confirmation, remove progress doc and other tmp files created for this run.
