github-issues

A set of project rules for creating and changing GitHub issues, including required issue labels and optional labels for affected parts of the codebase. GitHub is a service for hosting code and tracking work through issues.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when opening or editing issues, choosing type and priority labels, and adding sub-issues or package-specific scope labels.
Why use it?
It keeps issues consistent and ensures each one records its type, priority, and relevant project area.

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

github-issues 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 — 68 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

GitHub Issue Conventions

This skill defines the project-specific conventions for GitHub issues. Claude auto-consults this when creating or modifying issues.

Required Labels

ALL issues MUST have one type:* label AND one priority:* label. Optionally add scope:* labels for affected packages.

Type labels (required — pick ONE)

  • type:bug — Bug or defect in existing functionality
  • type:enhancement — New feature or enhancement
  • type:debt — Technical debt that needs addressing
  • type:docs — Documentation improvements
  • type:refactor — Code refactoring without behavior change
  • type:test — Test coverage improvements

Priority labels (required — pick ONE)

  • priority:critical — Must be fixed ASAP
  • priority:high — High priority
  • priority:medium — Medium priority
  • priority:low — Nice to have

Scope labels (optional — pick any that apply)

  • scope:core — rangelink-core-ts package
  • scope:vscode-ext — rangelink-vscode-extension package
  • scope:test-utils — rangelink-test-utils package
  • scope:tooling — Build tools, scripts, CI/CD
  • scope:docs — Documentation files

Labels to avoid

Do NOT use GitHub's default labels: bug, enhancement, duplicate, invalid, wontfix, question, good first issue, help wanted.

Parent-Child Issues

Use the GraphQL addSubIssue mutation for native sub-issue relationships. Never rely only on text links in descriptions (e.g., "Parent: #47").

# Get node IDs
PARENT_ID=$(gh api repos/:owner/:repo/issues/$PARENT_NUM --jq '.node_id')
CHILD_ID=$(gh api repos/:owner/:repo/issues/$CHILD_NUM --jq '.node_id')

# Link using native API
gh api graphql -H "GraphQL-Features: sub_issues" -f query="
  mutation {
    addSubIssue(input: {issueId: \"$PARENT_ID\", subIssueId: \"$CHILD_ID\"}) {
      clientMutationId
    }
  }
"

No References to Ephemeral Files

NEVER reference .scratchpads/, .claude-questions/, .commit-msgs/, or .breadcrumbs/ files in GitHub issue content. These files are local/ephemeral and not accessible from GitHub.

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.

github-issues is a skill published in the GitHub repository couimet/rangeLink (10 stars, last pushed 3d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 33 tokens to every session and 604 once invoked, about $0.0002 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
