Set up GitHub Project 9 automation and issue creation #239
Description
🎯 Layer 1: Intent Parsing
What needs to be done?
Task Title:
Set up GitHub Project 9 automation and issue creation
Area: infra | Repos: infra/
Primary Goal:
Configure GitHub Project 9 automation workflows and establish standardized issue creation processes to streamline project management and tracking
User Story / Context:
As a project manager/developer, I want GitHub Project 9 automation and standardized issue creation so that project tracking, sprint planning, and progress monitoring are efficient and consistent
Business Impact:
Enables efficient project management, improves sprint planning accuracy, and ensures consistent issue tracking across the team. Contributes to Phase 1 Foundation goals.
Task Metadata:
- Sprint: Sprint 1
- Related Epic/Project: GitHub Project 9 - Phase 1 Foundation
- Issue Type: Chore
- Area: Infra
- Related Documentation:
- Platform Blueprint - Complete platform specification
- Planning Master Index - All planning documents
- Execution Strategy - Implementation strategy
📚 Layer 2: Knowledge Retrieval
What information do I need?
Required Skills / Knowledge:
- DevOps/Infra (CI/CD, Docker)
- GitHub Actions and project automation
- Project management workflows
Estimated Effort:
S (Small - 1-2 days)
Knowledge Resources:
- Review
.cursor/skills/for relevant patterns (gitops-workflow, github-actions-templates) - Check
.cursor/llm/docs/for implementation examples - Read Platform Blueprint:
docs/draft.md - Read Planning Master Index:
docs/planning/0-Master-Index.md - Read Execution Strategy:
docs/reference/spec/execute.md - Study tech docs / ADRs in
docs/adrs/directory - Review GitHub Actions documentation for project automation
Architecture Context:
According to the Platform Blueprint, HyperAgent uses a microservice architecture with three major layers. This task focuses on establishing project management infrastructure to support the development workflow.

⚠️ Layer 3: Constraint Analysis
What constraints and dependencies exist?
Known Dependencies:
- GitHub Project 9 must be created and configured
- Team members must have appropriate GitHub permissions
Technical Constraints:
Scope limited to GitHub Project 9 automation setup. Issue template structure is defined in
.github/template/ISSUE_TEMPLATE.md.
Current Blockers:
None identified (update as work progresses)
Risk Assessment & Mitigations:
Standard development risks; follow best practices, code review, and testing. Ensure automation workflows are tested in a non-production environment first.
Resource Constraints:
- Deadline: Feb 5–17 (Sprint 1)
- Effort Estimate: S (Small - 1-2 days)
💡 Layer 4: Solution Generation
How should this be implemented?
Solution Approach:
Implement GitHub Actions workflows to automate:
- Issue assignment to GitHub Project 9 based on labels
- Automatic status updates when issues are moved between columns
- Issue creation templates that auto-populate Project 9 fields
- Sprint milestone tracking and reporting
Use GitHub's project automation features and custom Actions workflows.
Design Considerations:
- Follow established patterns from
.cursor/skills/gitops-workflow - Maintain consistency with existing GitHub Actions workflows
- Consider scalability and maintainability
- Ensure proper error handling and logging
- Plan for testing and validation
- Align with Agile/Scrum practices from Execution Strategy
Acceptance Criteria (Solution Validation):
- GitHub Project 9 automation workflows created and tested
- Issues automatically added to Project 9 based on labels
- Issue status syncs with Project 9 columns
- Issue creation templates include Project 9 metadata
- Sprint milestone tracking functional
- Documentation updated with automation setup instructions
- Code reviewed and approved
📋 Layer 5: Execution Planning
What are the concrete steps?
Implementation Steps:
- Review GitHub Project 9 structure and columns
- Design automation workflow requirements
- Create GitHub Actions workflow for issue-to-project automation
- Create GitHub Actions workflow for status synchronization
