issue-tracking

issue-tracking is a skill for Claude Code from arozumenko/sdlc-skills. It costs 59 tokens per session (2,199 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for managing software issues and tickets across GitHub, GitLab, Jira, Azure DevOps, or Linear. Issues are written records of bugs, tasks, or larger work items.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to create, find, comment on, update, transition, and close bugs, tasks, and epics.
Why use it?
It prevents tickets from being created in the wrong tracking system or with the wrong format. It also keeps issue operations consistent with the project's configured tracker.

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-tracking 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 9d 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 — 232 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Issue Tracking

Create, query, comment on, and close tickets on whatever tracker the project actually uses. This skill is tracker-aware — the same operation lands in the right system because the dispatch reads .agents/profile.md.

Step 0 — Read the destination from profile.md

Before any command, open .agents/profile.md § Project systems § Issue tracker. Scout's Step 0.7 records one of:

Value (profile.md) Default tooling
github-issues (default) gh CLI
gitlab-issues glab CLI
jira Atlassian MCP (create / comment / transition); body must be in ADF
azure-devops Azure DevOps MCP (az boards as a fallback)
linear Linear CLI (linear) or Linear MCP
Unconfirmed Default to gh; surface the gap to the operator so scout can fill the field

On restrictive hosts (e.g. Copilot CLI), scout's Step 6.8 has already wired the matching CLI/MCP into the calling agent's tools: whitelist based on what's actually installed. If the named tracker has no wired tool, stop and escalate rather than silently falling back — the right ticket in the wrong tracker is worse than no ticket.

Body templates

Body shapes are tracker-agnostic markdown — they live in references/templates.md and are reused across all trackers. Pick:

  • Bug Report — defect filing (severity, environment, steps, expected, actual, evidence, frequency, workaround); for lightweight clarifications, use the same template at [INFO] severity
  • Task — implementation task under an epic
  • Epic — multi-task feature umbrella

Render the markdown body, then hand it to the tracker-specific command below. Jira / Azure DevOps require ADF (Atlassian Document Format) rather than markdown — convert via whatever ADF-authoring capability your agent has wired.

File a defect

Standard flow when the caller is filing a new defect:

  1. Read .agents/profile.md § Project systems § Issue tracker (see Step 0 above) and § Bug filing — the latter records:
    • Bug filing style: github-issue (standalone) / story-subtask (sub-task under a parent story; Jira / ADO only) / separate-ticket (filed into a dedicated QA/bugs project)
    • Bug filing target: when style is separate-ticket, the destination project/board key
  2. Fill the Bug Report template from references/templates.md.
  3. Open the ticket via the tracker's create command (see Create issue below). For story-subtask, the caller is responsible for providing the parent story ID; pass it as the parent when invoking the tracker's create command. For separate-ticket, target the project named in § Bug filing target.
  4. Return the ticket ID and URL to the caller. What the caller does with that ID (note in an AFS, attach to a test, link in a PR body) is caller policy, not this skill's concern.

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.
