github-issue-manager

github-issue-manager is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from explyt/spring-plugin. It costs 100 tokens per session (4,916 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A GitHub issue helper for the explyt/spring-plugin repository. GitHub issues are tickets used to report bugs, request changes, ask questions, or track tasks.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to find an existing issue or create a new one with the repository's required title, form, and labels.
Why use it?
It turns an informal request into a correctly classified issue, while checking the code and existing issues for duplicates.

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-issue-manager 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 15d 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.

GitHub Issue Manager (explyt/spring-plugin)

Create or find an issue in explyt/spring-plugin from a user description, following the repository issue forms and label conventions.

Critical constraints

  • Work only with the GitHub repository explyt/spring-plugin. If the user names another repository, stop and ask them to use a workflow configured for that repository.
  • Never create a new issue when an open (or relevant closed) issue with the same core outcome already exists.
  • Before creating an issue, always do light codebase research and a similar-issue search.
  • Do not implement, deep-review, or refactor code: research only enough for a good title, body, labels, and template choice.
  • Pick labels from the live repository label list (gh label list --repo explyt/spring-plugin); never invent label names.
  • Verify every label exists before passing it to gh, including labels named in this skill and labels declared by the issue forms. gh issue create fails outright on an unknown label. Check with: gh label list --repo explyt/spring-plugin --limit 200 --json name --jq '.[].name' and match exactly.
  • Do not trust the labels: field in .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/*.yml. A form may declare a label that does not exist in the repository (verified: the feature form declares feature-request, which is absent, so that form silently applies nothing). Treat the forms as the source of truth for body structure only, and verify each declared label against gh label list before relying on it.
  • The issue category is the GitHub issue Type, not a label. Set the Type from Classification rules on every created issue and never add a label that restates it.
  • Never use plugin-bug, even if a fresh fetch shows it again. It was deleted on 2026-09-30 after every issue carrying it received Type Bug; do not pass, re-create, or suggest it.
  • Use the live label catalog and the module/feature mapping below; the static list is a synchronization aid, not a substitute for refreshing GitHub. The only category labels are compatibility, question, and type:internal. Use a matching in:<module> area label when one exists, plus only relevant feature/topic labels.
  • Never pass component dropdown values such as Navigation gutter or Autocompletion as labels: they are form fields, not GitHub labels. Reference examples: #25/#44/#268 (inspection, in:spring-core), #118 (inspection, in:spring-core, properties), #142 (inspection, in:spring-web).
  • If a needed label genuinely does not exist, file without it and say so in the report; never create labels, invent an in:<module> label, or substitute a similar-looking name.
  • If issue creation is blocked (permissions, auth, missing tooling), return the ready-to-create title/body/labels and the exact blocker instead of retrying.
  • When creating or proposing a new issue, always append as the final body line: _Created automatically by github-issue-manager skill._
  • Never include secrets, tokens, private customer data, or local absolute paths in an issue body.
  • For delegated codebase research use call_ask_agent; the subagent must return a complete summary inline (no artifact files needed for this light research).

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.
