Adds a 4-step example job that searches git branches, commits, PRs, and issues using optional filter substrings to build comprehensive status reports for decision makers.

Implementation

Job structure (job_library/status/)

  • gather_filters - Prompts for comma-separated keywords, creates filters.txt
  • search_git - Searches branches/commits matching ALL keywords, outputs git_results.md
  • search_github - Searches PRs/issues via MCP tools matching ALL keywords, outputs github_results.md
  • compile_report - Cross-references results, produces status_report.md with executive summary

Filtering logic: AND operation across keywords (e.g., "foo,bar" returns only items containing both)

Step instructions: ~150 lines each with process details, output format examples, quality criteria, and GitHub MCP tool usage patterns

Example workflow

/status.gather_filters
# Enter: "authentication,security"

/status.search_git
# Outputs git_results.md with matching branches and commits

/status.search_github  
# Outputs github_results.md with matching PRs and issues

/status.compile_report
# Generates status_report.md with cross-referenced results and insights

Documentation added to job_library/README.md.

Original prompt

Create a status example job that searches git and github open prs issues to build the status of work for this repo. It should optioanly take filter substrings to effectivly index and build context for the status acorss branches/commits/prs/issues. for example foo and bar would return branches/issues/commits with foo bar allowing a decision maker to get up to speed on all work relating to the matching substrings
