SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Writing well-structured GitHub issues that follow a repository's templates is repetitive and error-prone. This Skill drafts and creates issues that match the correct template (bug, feature, or task) so reports are complete and consistently formatted. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Template Selection: Inspects .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/ and picks the right template (bug report, feature request, or task) based on your request, asking when the type is ambiguous. - Faithful Filling: Respects each template's frontmatter (title, labels, assignees) and fills every required section without inventing data you did not provide. - Duplicate Check & Creation: Searches existing issues with gh issue list before creating one via gh issue create, and falls back to showing the drafted body when no remote is configured. - Use Case: Say "open an issue: login fails with Google on Safari" and get a properly labeled bug report published to GitHub with its URL returned. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to open an issue describing your bug, feature, or task, for example: open an issue for the login failing with Google on Safari.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a GitHub issue from a template using the gh CLI?▼

Use gh issue create with a title, body, and labels matching the template's frontmatter, or pass --template for the interactive flow. This Skill automates that by reading .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/ and filling the chosen template for you.

How does the skill choose between bug report, feature request, and task templates?▼

It inspects the templates available in .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/ and maps your request to bug_report.md, feature_request.md, or task.md. If the type is ambiguous, it asks you before choosing.

Does it check for duplicate issues before creating one?▼

Yes. It searches existing issues with gh issue list before creating a new one, so an identical issue is not opened twice.

What happens if no git remote is configured?▼

When no remote is available for the gh CLI, the skill outputs the fully drafted issue body so you can paste it manually into GitHub instead of creating it automatically.

Can it close, edit, or comment on existing GitHub issues?▼

No. The skill only creates new issues. It explicitly does not close, edit, or comment on existing issues, and it never invents missing details like versions or logs.
