markitect wish create: Create new wishlist items with templates - markitect wish list: List and filter wishes by stage - markitect wish promote: Promote wishes through workflow stages - markitect wish convert: Convert ready wishes to regular issues ā€¢ Workflow Stages: - discussion: Initial idea capture and brainstorming - draft: Create specification and requirements - ready: Prepare for conversion to development issue - archived: Preserve ideas that won't be pursued ā€¢ Features: - Automatic label management (wish, wish/stage, priority/level) - Multiple output formats (table, simple, json) - Stage filtering and organization - Structured templates for each workflow stage - Comprehensive documentation and best practices šŸ¤– Generated with [Claude Code](https://claude.ai/code) Co-Authored-By: Claude --- docs/wishlist.md | 300 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ markitect/cli.py | 323 +++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ 2 files changed, 623 insertions(+) create mode 100644 docs/wishlist.md diff --git a/docs/wishlist.md b/docs/wishlist.md new file mode 100644 index 00000000..9fbb5399 --- /dev/null +++ b/docs/wishlist.md @@ -0,0 +1,300 @@ +# Feature Wishlist System -
