When to Use

Use this skill when:

Creating a GitHub issue (bug report or feature request)
Helping a contributor file an issue
Triaging or approving issues as a maintainer

Critical Rules

Blank issues are disabled — MUST use a template (bug report or feature request)
Every issue gets status:needs-review automatically on creation
A maintainer MUST add status:approved before any PR can be opened
Questions go to Discussions, not issues

Workflow

1. Search existing issues for duplicates
2. Choose the correct template (Bug Report or Feature Request)
3. Fill in ALL required fields
4. Check pre-flight checkboxes
5. Submit → issue gets status:needs-review automatically
6. Wait for maintainer to add status:approved
7. Only then open a PR linking this issue

Issue Templates

Bug Report

Template: .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/bug_report.yml Auto-labels: bug, status:needs-review

Required Fields

Field	Description
Pre-flight Checks	Checkboxes: no duplicate + understands approval workflow
Bug Description	Clear description of the bug
Steps to Reproduce	Numbered steps to reproduce
Expected Behavior	What should have happened
Actual Behavior	What happened instead (include errors/logs)
Operating System	Dropdown: macOS, Linux variants, Windows, WSL
Agent / Client	Dropdown: Claude Code, OpenCode, Gemini CLI, Cursor, Windsurf, Codex, Other
Shell	Dropdown: bash, zsh, fish, Other

Optional Fields

Field	Description
Relevant Logs	Log output (auto-formatted as code block)
Additional Context	Screenshots, workarounds, extra info

Example — Bug Report via CLI

gh issue create --template "bug_report.yml" \
  --title "fix(scripts): setup.sh fails on zsh with glob error" \
  --body "
### Pre-flight Checks
- [x] I have searched existing issues and this is not a duplicate
- [x] I understand this issue needs status:approved before a PR can be opened

### Bug Description
Running setup.sh on zsh throws a glob error when no matching files exist.

### Steps to Reproduce
1. Clone the repo
2. Run \`./scripts/setup.sh\` in zsh
3. See error: \`zsh: no matches found: skills/*\`

### Expected Behavior
The script should handle missing glob matches gracefully.

### Actual Behavior
Script crashes with glob error.

### Operating System
macOS

### Agent / Client
Claude Code

### Shell
zsh

### Relevant Logs
\`\`\`
zsh: no matches found: skills/*
\`\`\`
"

Feature Request

Template: .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/feature_request.yml Auto-labels: enhancement, status:needs-review

Required Fields

Field	Description
Pre-flight Checks	Checkboxes: no duplicate + understands approval workflow
Problem Description	The pain point this feature solves
Proposed Solution	How it should work from the user's perspective
Affected Area	Dropdown: Scripts, Skills, Examples, Documentation, CI/Workflows, Other

Optional Fields

Field	Description
Alternatives Considered	Other approaches or workarounds
Additional Context	Mockups, examples, references

Example — Feature Request via CLI

gh issue create --template "feature_request.yml" \
  --title "feat(scripts): add Codex support to setup.sh" \
  --body "
### Pre-flight Checks
- [x] I have searched existing issues and this is not a duplicate
- [x] I understand this issue needs status:approved before a PR can be opened

### Problem Description
The setup script only configures Claude Code, Gemini CLI, and OpenCode. Codex users have to manually copy skills.

### Proposed Solution
Add a Codex option to setup.sh that links skills to the .codex/ directory.

Example:
\`\`\`bash
./scripts/setup.sh --agent codex
\`\`\`

### Affected Area
Scripts (setup, installation)

### Alternatives Considered
Manually symlinking, but that defeats the purpose of the setup script.

Label System

Applied Automatically on Issue Creation

Template	Labels added
Bug Report	`bug`, `status:needs-review`
Feature Request	`enhancement`, `status:needs-review`

Applied by Maintainers

Label	When to apply
`status:approved`	Issue accepted for implementation — PRs can now be opened
`priority:high`	Critical bug or urgent feature
`priority:medium`	Important but not blocking
`priority:low`	Nice to have

Maintainer Approval Workflow

1. New issue arrives with status:needs-review
2. Review the issue — is it valid, clear, and in scope?
3. If YES → add status:approved label
4. If NO → comment with reason, close if needed
5. Contributor can now open a PR linking this issue

Decision Tree

Is it a bug?                    → Use Bug Report template
Is it a new feature/improvement? → Use Feature Request template
Is it a question?               → Use Discussions, NOT issues
Is it a duplicate?              → Link to existing issue, close

Commands

# Search existing issues before creating
gh issue list --search "keyword"

# Create bug report
gh issue create --template "bug_report.yml" --title "fix(scope): description"

# Create feature request
gh issue create --template "feature_request.yml" --title "feat(scope): description"

# Maintainer: approve an issue
gh issue edit <number> --add-label "status:approved"

# Maintainer: add priority
gh issue edit <number> --add-label "priority:high"
