issue-workflow-guide

A guide for planning and implementing GitHub issues by following a structured workflow. A GitHub issue is a written report of a bug, request, or task.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for creating an issue analysis, implementation plan, testing strategy, and risk assessment, then making changes, validating tests, and preparing a feature branch and pull-request suggestion.
Why use it?
It gives manual issue work a consistent process, from analysis and planning through testing and a pull request.

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.

Made for: Claude Code.

Per session 0 Only the description is in the session, so the agent can decide to use it. The body loads when it is invoked.
When invoked 168 The whole file, excluding the scripts and references it only reads on demand.
Security scan A 0 findings. Scan, not verified.
Origin original No closer match found in the catalogue.
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

issue-workflow-guide 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 3d 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.

What it actually says

Claude Issue Workflow Usage Guide

Quick Start

Expected Outputs

Planning Phase

  • Detailed analysis comment posted to issue
  • Implementation plan with steps and file changes
  • Testing strategy and validation steps
  • Risk assessment

Implementation Phase

  • Code changes made according to plan
  • Tests run and validated
  • Feature branch created: fix/issue-{number}
  • PR suggestion with proper title format

Manual Override

If you need to work on an issue manually, use the /gh-issue-plan command for structured guidance following the same workflow patterns.

Troubleshooting

  • Ensure you're on the authorized users list
  • Check that the issue has sufficient detail for analysis
  • For implementation, ensure a plan comment exists from the planning phase
  • If workflows fail, check the Actions tab for detailed logs
Changes

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.
