- Evidence: `.codex/skills/gh-resolve-issue/SKILL.md`, `.codex/skills/gh-resolve-issue/agents/openai.yaml`, `gh issue close --help`, `gh label create --help`, `gh pr create --help`, `python C:/Users/redan/.codex/skills/.system/skill-creator/scripts/quick_validate.py .codex/skills/gh-resolve-issue`

## Facts

- The repository now has a manual-only skill named `gh-resolve-issue` for triaging and resolving GitHub issues through `gh`.
- The skill guarantees that an automatically selected issue is never left re-pickable without new information: each run ends with the issue either closed or labeled `automation:nop`.
- The skill uses `Fixes #<issue>` or `Closes #<issue>` for real fixes, but treats those keywords as default-branch aware rather than assuming any push closes the issue immediately.

## Implications

- If no issue ID is provided, the skill should skip issues labeled `automation:nop` and move to the next eligible open issue.
- If a fix is pushed to a non-default branch, the issue should remain open but be marked `automation:nop` until merge or human follow-up.

## Follow-ups

- Revalidate if the repository adopts a stricter PR-only workflow or standardized issue labels that should replace `automation:nop`.
