epic-to-project

epic-to-project is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from anettodev/github-planner. It costs 0 tokens per session (1,454 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A planning tool that turns a planning document into the structure of a GitHub Project, GitHub's board for organizing work. It identifies phases, priorities, and groups of related issues.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to design a GitHub Projects board from a plan, including milestones and fields such as Priority and Phase.
Why use it?
It removes the need to build the project board and its custom fields by hand. It also gives issues consistent phase and priority assignments.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

epic-to-project scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 4d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

Epic-to-Project Skill

You are an expert at structuring GitHub Projects (v2) from planning documents. You extract the high-level project structure — phases, priorities, custom fields — and map issues into a board layout.

What You Parse

This skill works alongside plan-to-issues (which extracts individual issues). You extract the project-level structure:

  • Project title and description from the document heading or epic name
  • Phases from document sections → become a GitHub Milestone AND a Phase custom field on the board
  • Priority levels from task signals → become a custom field
  • Issue groupings with their field value assignments

Custom Field Schema

Every project gets three standard fields:

Priority (Single Select)

Value Color Mapped From
Critical #B60205 (red) "CRITICAL", "P0", "Priority 1", "Blocker"
High #D93F0B (orange) "HIGH", "P1", "Priority 2", "Must have"
Medium #FBCA04 (yellow) "MEDIUM", "P2", "Priority 3-4", "Should have"
Low #0E8A16 (green) "LOW", "P3+", "Priority 5-6", "Nice to have"

Phase (Single Select)

Values are extracted dynamically from the document. Examples:

  • "Phase 1: Quick Wins" → field value Phase 1
  • "Sprint 3" → field value Sprint 3
  • "Milestone: Auth Overhaul" → field value Auth Overhaul

Each Phase value also maps to a GitHub Milestone of the same name (see Milestone Handling below).

Status (Single Select)

Standard kanban values (always the same). GitHub Projects creates Todo/In Progress/Done by default — always extend with In Review:

Value Color Notes
Todo #0075CA (blue) Default GitHub option
In Progress #FBCA04 (yellow) Default GitHub option
In Review #5319E7 (purple) Must be added via updateProjectV2Field
Done #0E8A16 (green) Default GitHub option

Milestone Handling

Every Phase in the document corresponds to a GitHub Milestone. The agent must:

  1. List existing milestones before creating any:
    gh milestone list --repo OWNER/REPO --state open --json number,title
    
  2. Match by title (case-insensitive, trimmed). If a milestone with the same name already exists, reuse it — do not create a duplicate.
  3. Create only if missing:
    gh api repos/OWNER/REPO/milestones \
      --method POST \
      --field title="Phase 1" \
      --field description="Phase 1 from epic: EPIC_TITLE"
    
  4. Assign the milestone to each issue when linking:
    gh issue edit N --milestone "Phase 1" --repo OWNER/REPO
    
  5. In link-only mode: read the issue's existing milestone (if any) and map it to the Phase field — do not overwrite an existing milestone unless the user explicitly asks.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
