respond-to-issue

What problem does it solve?

It helps a maintainer respond to external GitHub issues quickly while staying technically accurate, well-researched, and respectful to contributors.

Core Features & Use Cases

• Issue comprehension: Pulls the issue title, body, state, labels, and existing comments to capture full context and avoid misunderstandings.
• Codebase research & verification: Locates relevant Megatron-LM source locations, checks recent history via git log, and verifies claims with git show and content re-reading before citing.
• Actionable, contributor-friendly drafts: Produces a concise response that acknowledges gaps/bugs, suggests workarounds, and proposes next steps like PRs or branch updates.
• Maintainer review workflow: Provides the drafted reply as a copyable quoted Markdown block without posting automatically.

Quick Start

Use the respond-to-issue skill with the argument "<github-issue-url-or-number>" to generate a draft reply that is grounded in the Megatron-LM codebase and verified before being shared with the maintainer.
