Craft well-structured GitHub issues with solution-agnostic outcomes, duplicate detection (open and closed), dynamically-discovered labels, and acceptance criteria describing observable behavior without implementation details. Use when creating new GitHub issues. Proactively suggest when an issue prescribes a method instead of describing an outcome.

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

# Issue Crafting

## Contract

Iron law: issues describe outcomes, never implementations — if the issue says "how," rewrite it. Invoked by `/flow:issue` (all phases), by `/flow:start` Phase 1 when the issue lacks acceptance criteria, and by `/flow:review` and `/flow:address` when a user-selected finding becomes a new issue. Returns a created and verified GitHub issue (`gh issue view <N> --json number,title,state,labels`) whose body follows the Context / Current State / Objective / Acceptance Criteria structure, with labels drawn from `gh label list`. Permitted skips: none — duplicate search (open and closed) always runs before creation, and any of the four requirement elements that is missing is gathered via the AskUserQuestion tool before composing.

## Solution-Agnostic Rules

- Describe outcomes: "Users can reset their password via email" — not "Add a reset_password method to UserController that sends a Postmark email."
- Acceptance criteria are verifiable without reading code: "Resetting a password with a valid token changes the stored password" — not "The `reset!` method updates the `password_digest` column."

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add synaptiai/synapti-marketplace/issue-crafting@sha256:c06a832ba3612554

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261105.46e96eb, 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.
