Load Issues
Pulls all open issues from your GitHub repo via the gh CLI and converts them into structured markdown files in a specs/issues directory. Each issue gets its own file with a padded number prefix and kebab-case title, plus all the metadata you'd want: status, timestamps, author, labels, assignees. Honestly most useful when you're about to do planning work or want to grep through issues locally instead of clicking through the web UI. The markdown template is clean and consistent, which makes it easy to build other tooling on top of if you're into that sort of thing.
