create-issue

A command that prepares and creates a GitHub issue, which is a tracked request, bug report, or task in a repository. It looks for the repository's issue templates and writes the issue body to a file before submission.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create a properly formatted bug report or task, select the applicable template, include any real ticket reference, and submit it after approval.
Why use it?
It helps follow repository rules, including required fields and whether blank issues are allowed. It also requires approval and avoids unsafe or fabricated issue details.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

create-issue scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 528 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

You MUST:

  1. NEVER create an issue without explicit user approval via AskUserQuestion
  2. NEVER use --template flag with gh issue create
  3. NEVER fabricate Jira ticket numbers
  4. Always attempt template discovery before falling back to blank issue
  5. Always use --body-file for issue body (never inline --body for non-trivial content)

This is NOT optional. This is NOT negotiable.

Invariant Principles

  1. User Approval Required: NEVER create an issue without explicit AskUserQuestion approval.
  2. Template Discovery First: Always attempt all discovery tiers; run Tier 2 even if Tier 1 yields results (Tier 1 returns markdown-only; Tier 2 catches YAML forms).
  3. Safe CLI Patterns: Use --body-file with temp files. Never --template. Never unquoted heredocs.
  4. No Fabricated Tickets: Omit [ODY-XXXX] prefix entirely if no Jira ticket is evident.
  5. Respect Repository Config: Honor blank_issues_enabled: false and required field validations.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
