Create a GitHub Discussion (for example a feature request in a repository that routes them to Discussions instead of issues) with background, prioritized acceptance criteria (Must/Should), and a justified time budget.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Create GitHub Discussion

Creates a structured GitHub Discussion in the specified repository with background, prioritized acceptance criteria (Must/Should), and (for private repositories) a justified time budget.
Use it for repositories that route requests (typically feature requests) to GitHub Discussions instead of issues, so the request arrives in the channel the maintainers asked for.
This skill is standalone: it is the Discussion counterpart to `/create-issue` and does not participate in the issue-driven SDLC pipeline.

## Prerequisites

- Apply the shared SDLC conventions in `skills/sdlc/references/shared.md`.
- If no argument is provided, operate on `$REPO`.
- `gh` CLI authenticated with write access to the target repository, and Discussions enabled for it
- Repository name in `owner/repo` format (`$1`), or omitted to use the repository in the current working directory

### Skill attribution (GitHub)

Before creating the discussion with `createDiscussion`, read [`github-post-attribution/SKILL.md`](../github-post-attribution/SKILL.md) and append the **Created with** footer for `SKILL_DIR` = `create-discussion` to the discussion body.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add tomzx/agents/create-discussion@sha256:a2bfda26b660efac

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261007.b35fc4b, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
