GitHub Issue Create

When to use

• The user asks to open a new issue.
• You need to file a bug, feature request, or task.

Inputs to confirm

• Title and body.
• Labels, assignees, milestone, project (optional).
• Target repo if not current (--repo OWNER/REPO).

Workflow

1. Verify auth:

   gh --version
   gh auth status
   

2. Create the issue:

   gh issue create --title "Bug: login fails" --body "Steps to reproduce..."
   gh issue create --label "bug" --assignee "@me"
   

3. Optional: use templates or open the web flow:

   gh issue create --template "Bug Report"
   gh issue create --web
   

Examples

# Create with labels and assignee
~ gh issue create --title "Add caching" --body "Details..." --label "performance" --assignee "@me"

Notes

• --assignee @me assigns yourself; @copilot is supported on GitHub.com only.
• Adding to projects may require gh auth refresh -s project.
