Create local ticket

Input: anything — a title, a sentence, a JSON blob from gh, a paste from a conversation. Extract the intent and normalize to %erg v1.

Steps

1. Determine the next ID:

   ls tickets/*.erg tickets/archive/*.erg 2>/dev/null \
     | sed 's|.*/||; s|-.*||' | sort -n | tail -1
   

   Increment by 1, zero-pad to 4 digits. If empty, start at 0001.

2. Choose a slug: lowercase kebab-case, ASCII only ([a-z0-9-]), derived from the title.

3. Create tickets/{ID}-{slug}.erg with this exact structure:

   %erg v1
   Title: {imperative title}
   Status: open
   Created: {YYYY-MM-DD}
   Author: {agent or user}
   
   --- log ---
   {YYYY-MM-DD}T{HH:MM}Z {author} created
   
   --- body ---
   ## Context
   {why this work exists}
   
   ## Actions
   1. {concrete step}
   
   ## Test
   {first test to write — TDD red step}
   
   ## Exit criteria
   {definition of done}
   

4. Commit the ticket file.

Rules

• Closed header set: Title, Status, Created, Author, Blocked-by. No other headers.
• Blocked-by: one line per dependency. Use 4-digit ticket IDs or gh#N for GitHub issues.
• Log: append-only. Format: {ISO-timestamp} {actor} {verb} [{detail}]
• Verbs: created, status, claimed, released, note
