FAQPage Schema
How do I identify low-quality GitHub issues in my repository?

This Skill automatically analyzes open GitHub issues and assigns quality scores based on title clarity, body completeness, and presence of key details like environment, reproduction steps, and error information. It ranks issues from lowest to highest quality, surfacing the most problematic ones for triage.

What information does the Skill check when evaluating issue quality?

The Skill assesses title length and clarity, body completeness, and the presence of environmental data, reproduction steps, error messages, expected versus actual behavior, version details, and URLs. Issues missing these elements receive lower quality scores.

Can I use this with my GitHub repository without manual setup?

Yes. Provide your repository name and a GitHub personal access token for REST API v3 authentication. The Skill handles pagination automatically, fetching open issues and excluding pull requests to deliver ranked results.

How can I integrate issue quality results into my CI/CD pipeline?

The Skill outputs results in both human-readable text and machine-parseable JSON formats, making it simple to feed quality scores into automated workflows, dashboards, or notification systems for continuous issue monitoring.

What's the difference between using this for triage versus enforcing issue standards?

This Skill prioritizes existing issues by identifying the lowest-quality ones first, helping teams decide where to focus improvement efforts. It's complementary to upstream issue templates or validation rules that prevent low-quality submissions from being created.
