github-issues

github-issues is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from kid-sid/codex-spellbook. It costs 57 tokens per session (3,535 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A guide for creating and managing GitHub issues, which are tracked tickets for bugs, feature requests, and engineering work. It covers issue types, severity, reproduction steps, acceptance criteria, and cross-repository links.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to write or triage bugs, regressions, feature requests, tasks, performance problems, and security or data-loss reports, including work handled through the gh command-line tool.
Why use it?
It helps teams file tickets with enough evidence and context to be understood, prioritized, acted on, and closed without repeated clarification.

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 1mo 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 — 408 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

GitHub Issues

Write issues that are acted on — not ignored, misrouted, or reopened for missing info.

When to Activate

  • Filing a bug report, feature request, or engineering task on GitHub
  • Triaging an issue and assigning severity or priority
  • Using the gh CLI to create or manage issues programmatically
  • Handling special cases: regressions, flaky tests, security holes, data-loss bugs
  • Writing acceptance criteria or reproduction steps
  • Linking issues across repositories or to pull requests

Issue Types & When to Use Each

Type Label Use When Must Include
Bug bug Observed behavior differs from documented or expected Repro steps, expected vs actual, environment
Regression bug, regression Previously working behavior broke in a specific version Commit/PR that introduced it, last-good version
Feature enhancement New capability that doesn't exist yet Problem statement, proposed solution, AC
Task / Chore chore Non-feature engineering work (refactor, migration, upgrade) Why now, success criteria, estimated scope
Performance performance Measurable slowdown or resource regression Benchmark before/after, profiling output
Security (private) Vulnerability, auth bypass, data exposure Do NOT file publicly — use private advisory
Documentation documentation Missing, wrong, or outdated docs Affected page/file, what's wrong, correct behavior
Flaky Test flaky, ci Test fails intermittently with no code change Failure frequency, CI run links, log excerpts

Severity × Priority Matrix

Severity = impact if it occurs. Priority = urgency to fix.

High Priority Low Priority
High Severity P0: fix immediately, page oncall P1: fix this sprint
Low Severity P2: schedule soon, workaround exists P3: backlog, good first issue

P0 triggers: data loss, auth bypass, production down, PII exposure, charge errors. P1 triggers: feature broken for >1% of users, no workaround, SLA at risk.

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.
