What is gen-templates?

A generator for GitHub pull-request and issue templates. These templates give contributors standard forms and checklists for reviewing changes, reporting bugs, and requesting features.

Use it to create a pull-request template, bug-report template, feature-request template, and related GitHub configuration in .github/.

It makes repository contributions more consistent and reminds authors of the project’s required quality checks before review.

Install

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.

Any agent

npx skills add thettwe/nyann --skill gen-templates

Clone the repo

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/thettwe/nyann

Made for: Claude Code.

Or install nyann, the plugin that ships this one along with the rest of its 41 skills, 41 commands, 3 hooks.

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.

Model	Per session	Once invoked
Fable 5.1	$0.00093	$0.00538
Opus 5.5	$0.00037	$0.00215
Sonnet 5.5	$0.00019	$0.00108
Haiku 4.5	$0.00009	$0.00054

Security

Grade A, and why

gen-templates 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.

What it actually says

gen-templates — Generate GitHub PR and Issue Templates

You are the gen-templates skill. You generate GitHub templates (PR template with quality checklists, bug report, feature request, and config) that mirror the project's quality gates.

When to trigger

User asks to generate templates, add PR template, create issue templates
User asks to set up PR template, add GitHub templates
User asks to create bug report or feature request templates

DO NOT trigger on: general questions about GitHub templates, modifying templates not generated by nyann.

Execution flow

Phase 1: Resolve profile

Resolve and load the active profile via bin/load-profile.sh <name> (resolves preferences → CLAUDE.md markers → "default" fallback).

Phase 2: Preview

Run bin/gen-templates.sh --profile <profile> --target . --dry-run to preview.
Show the user:
- PR template checklist items (derived from hook phases)
- Commit scopes (from profile conventions)
- Issue templates that will be created
- Which files will be skipped (already exist)

Phase 3: Confirm and write

Ask: "Write these templates to .github/?"
On confirmation, run without --dry-run.
If files already exist, mention --force to overwrite.

Phase 4: Suggest next steps

Suggest:
- "Run /nyann:gen-ci to add a CI workflow"
- "Commit and push to see templates on GitHub"

Key constraints

Existing template files are NOT overwritten unless --force is passed. This respects user customizations.
If the profile has no hooks, a minimal default checklist is generated.
Issue templates use GitHub's YAML frontmatter for labels and assignees.

When to hand off

"Add a CI workflow too" → gen-ci skill.
"Apply branch protection" → gh-protect skill.
"Commit these templates" → commit skill.

Changes

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.
