ado-create-work-items

Take a backlog_input.json and create the work items in Azure DevOps by driving the bundled create-backlog.cs. The script creates an optional parent (Feature/Epic), then every item linked under it, and writes a backlog_result.json mapping each key to its new id/url.

Creating items in a live org is outward-facing and effectively un-undoable (delete is manual, links and notifications already fired). So this skill is built around a hard gate: dry-run always, real run only on an explicit "yes".

For the exact JSON shapes (backlog_input.json, backlog_result.json, the key field that threads source row → ticket, and the process→types table) see references/data-contracts.md. Don't duplicate schemas here.
