## Context

This skill is the **canonical Copilot-agent lifecycle for the Squad repository**. It covers the full path from picking up a GitHub issue to merging a PR. Where older docs (templates, copilot-instructions, CONTRIBUTING.md) conflict with this skill, **this skill takes precedence** for Copilot agents.

For advanced scenarios (worktrees, multi-repo coordination), see `.copilot/skills/git-workflow/SKILL.md`.

## Scope

✅ **THIS SKILL COVERS:**
- Issue pickup and branch creation
- Implementation, build, test, lint workflow
- Pre-push safety verification
- PR creation with correct target, title, body, and labels
- All 11 PR readiness checks (what they check, how to pass, how to fix)
