Use ONLY when a git repository is hosted on GitHub to create, structure, or link GitHub epics, sub-issues, and dependency relationships.
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
# GitHub Epic & Sub-issues Manage multi-issue epics, parent-child task hierarchies, and blocking dependencies natively on GitHub. ## Preflight & Hosting Check Verify GitHub hosting (`git remote get-url origin`). For custom domains needing self-hosted GHES detection, see [hosting-detection.md](references/hosting-detection.md). ## Native Wiring (GitHub API) GitHub supports native sub-issue hierarchies and issue dependency links via `gh api` using numeric database IDs (not issue numbers). ### 1. Database ID Lookup ```bash gh api repos/<owner>/<repo>/issues/<issue_number> --jq .id ``` ### 2. Link Sub-issue to Epic ```bash gh api --method POST repos/<owner>/<repo>/issues/<parent_number>/sub_issues \ -F sub_issue_id=<child_db_id> ``` ### 3. Link Blocked-by Dependency ```bash gh api --method POST repos/<owner>/<repo>/issues/<child_number>/dependencies/blocked_by \ -F issue_id=<blocker_db_id> ``` ## Issue Linking Conventions - **Auto-close**: Use `Closes #N`, `Fixes #N`, or `Resolves #N` solely when merging auto-closes issue `#N`. …

How to install
mdr add akunzai/agent-skills/github-epic@sha256:1b0bfb1ede3dc9e6The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260926.0e0d27a, 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.
