End-to-end plan → implement → review pipeline that takes one triaged Gaia issue to a merged-ready PR, with Kill Criteria on the issue and zero follow-up debt. Use when someone says: "resolve this issue", "take #N end-to-end", "work the P0 queue", "fix and ship this issue", "run the resolver", "close out this issue properly", or /gaia-issue-resolver. Works any gaia-research org repo — gaia-skill-tree, gaia-research, gaia-skill-heaven — while the issue itself lives on the headquarters tracker…
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# gaia-issue-resolver Execute the complete resolution pipeline on **one** already-triaged Gaia issue, selected by priority (`P0`–`P4`) or assignee. Adapted from `favorchurch/rock-steward`'s `rock-issue-resolver`; the six-phase shape and the Kill Criteria discipline are its contribution, the Gaia mechanics below are this repo's. Prerequisite: the issue is triaged — it has a priority label, a size, and a stated problem. If it doesn't, stop and run `/gaia-triage` on it first. This skill resolves; it does not decide what is worth resolving. --- ## 1. Non-negotiables 1. **Zero follow-up debt.** Do not close an issue by filing a trailing "clean up" issue that carries its own unfinished work. Everything a reasonable reviewer would call a direct consequence of this change belongs in this change. This is `gaia-skill-tree`'s sprint-completeness rule applied at issue granularity: genuinely new, out-of-scope work discovered along the way may still be filed; the issue's own remainder may not. 2. **Kill Criteria before code.** Every acceptance requirement is written as an explicit `KC-1 … KC-N` list, posted as a comment on the issue *before* implementation starts, …

How to install
mdr add gaia-research/gaia-skill-heaven/gaia-issue-resolver@sha256:121d10ff446b9639The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260912.9737909, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
