Pull request overview

This PR extends the existing github-issues skill with milestone management guidance. It adds a new reference document describing how to create, read, update, close, reopen, delete, and manage issues within GitHub milestones via the REST API (gh api), and wires that reference into the skill's capability table and generated docs. This fits the repository's pattern of documenting extended capabilities in dedicated per-topic reference files that the agent loads on demand.

Changes:

  • Added references/milestones.md documenting milestone CRUD operations and issue-to-milestone assignment using gh api.
  • Registered the new capability in the SKILL.md "Extended Capabilities" table.
  • Regenerated docs/README.skills.md so the github-issues row lists the new reference file.

docs/README.skills.md Regenerated skills doc so the github-issues entry includes references/milestones.md.
