Create Ticket Skill

Create properly numbered tickets with consistent structure.

Workflow

1. Scan claude/tickets/ for existing TICKET-XXX-*.md files
2. Determine next ticket number (highest + 1, or 001 if none)
3. Create ticket file at claude/tickets/TICKET-XXX-description.md
4. Update claude/tickets/ticket-list.md with new entry

Finding Next Ticket Number

ls claude/tickets/TICKET-*.md 2>/dev/null | grep -oE 'TICKET-[0-9]+' | sort -t'-' -k2 -n | tail -1

If no tickets exist, start with TICKET-001.
