SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Poorly written GitHub issues are frequently ignored, misrouted, or reopened for missing critical information, creating unnecessary friction for engineering teams and delaying bug fixes, feature delivery, and maintenance work.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Standardized Issue Templates: Pre-built structures for bug reports, feature requests, regressions, flaky tests, security vulnerabilities, and performance issues that ensure all required context is included upfront.
  • gh CLI Integration: Ready-to-use command references for creating, editing, labeling, and managing issues programmatically, including bulk operations and cross-repo issue linking.
  • Triage & Classification Guidance: Clear severity/priority matrices, label definitions, and edge case handling rules for regressions, data-loss bugs, cross-platform issues, and duplicate detection to streamline issue triage.
  • Use Case Example: If your team regularly receives bug reports with no reproduction steps, this skill ensures every issue includes numbered repro steps, environment details, and acceptance criteria so engineers can start fixing immediately without follow-up requests.

Quick Start

Use the github-issues skill to file a complete bug report for the payment card decline issue with all required reproduction steps, environment details, and P1 severity classification.
