issue-analyzing

A process for analyzing a specific GitHub issue, which is a tracked bug report or feature request in a code repository. It combines the issue details with research into the relevant code.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when reviewing a numbered GitHub issue to inspect its description, discussion, related code, scope, and resolution status.
Why use it?
It helps determine what an issue affects, how large the work may be, and whether it has already been resolved.

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-analyzing 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 — 100 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Issue Analyzing

Analyze a GitHub issue by combining authoritative issue data from GitHub with semantic code research from ChunkHound. Produces a structured analysis of problem scope, affected code area, and resolution status.

Do not activate for generic code questions that do not reference a specific issue.

Prerequisites

Requires the chunkhound-integration companion plugin. The skill calls mcp__plugin_chunkhound-integration_ChunkHound__code_research at Step 3 and stops with an error if that tool is not callable — see Errors.

Issue data is fetched from GitHub using whatever access the session has available (a GitHub MCP server, the gh CLI, or direct API calls).

Input

  • Required: Issue number
  • Optional: Repository as owner/name — defaults to the current repository context
  • Optional: Triage reasoning — context from the caller about why analysis was requested. Treat as a hint for research focus.

Workflow

Step 1 — Fetch issue data

Fetch the following from GitHub: issue metadata (title, body, author, labels, state) and all comments.

Use whatever GitHub access is available in the session. If a single call returns everything together, that's fine; if comments are returned separately, fetch them as part of this step. On error (issue not found, access denied, no GitHub access), stop and report to the user.

Step 2 — Identify the affected code area

From the issue description and comments, extract signals about what part of the codebase is affected:

  • File paths or component names mentioned directly in the description
  • Class or function names referenced in the text (often in backticks or stack traces)
  • Error messages that can be traced back to specific components
  • Area labels (e.g., area/checkout, area/admin) that indicate scope
  • Linked PRs referenced as fixes — comments often contain "Fixed in #X" or "See PR #Y"

If the issue is a feature request, the "affected area" is the area that would need to change to implement it. If the body is too vague to identify a specific area, note this in the output and research at the area label's level instead.

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.

issue-analyzing is a skill published in the GitHub repository shopwareLabs/ai-coding-tools (42 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It adds 51 tokens to every session and 1,390 once invoked, about $0.0003 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 2026-08-30.
