name	youtrack
description	Interacts with YouTrack issue tracker for IdeaVim. Use when working with tickets (VIM-XXXX), adding comments, managing tags, setting status, or release management. This project does NOT use GitHub Issues - use YouTrack instead.

YouTrack Integration

• YouTrack URL: https://youtrack.jetbrains.com/issues/VIM
• Tickets are prefixed with VIM- (e.g., VIM-1234)
