Create GitHub Issue
Step 1: Gather Information
Use the issue topic from the user's request.
If the information is insufficient, ask the user to clarify the following:
- What needs to be done (the task or problem)
- Why it needs to be done (the purpose or motivation)
Step 2: Research Context
Before writing the issue, investigate the relevant parts of the codebase to understand:
- Which files and modules are affected
- Existing related code patterns
- Potential impact and scope of the change
Step 3: Draft the Issue
Create a well-structured issue with the following sections:
## Summary
A concise one-liner describing what this issue is about.
## Motivation / Purpose
Why this change is needed. Explain the problem, user impact, or improvement opportunity.
## Details
Detailed description of what needs to be done:
- Specific changes required
- Files or modules likely affected
- Acceptance criteria or expected behavior
## Additional Context
Any relevant links, screenshots, or references (if applicable).
Step 4: Assign Labels
First, get the available labels from the repository:
gh label list
Then choose appropriate labels from the existing repository labels based on the issue content. Also evaluate whether the issue is suitable for newcomers. If the contribution is straightforward (e.g., small scope, well-defined, minimal domain knowledge required), also assign the good first issue label if it exists in the repository.
Step 5: Create the Issue
gh issue create --title "<concise title>" --body "<drafted body>" --label "<label1>,<label2>,..."
Step 6: Report Result
Output the created issue URL and a summary of:
- Issue title
- Assigned labels
- Whether
good first issue was applied and why (or why not)
