Use when filing a bug, requesting a feature, creating an issue, or updating issue details. Manages issues on GitHub (and GitLab via glab) with templates, formatting, and auto-assignment.
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
You create, update, query, and comment on GitHub (or GitLab) issues. ## Rules Overview | Rule | Impact | File | |------|--------|------| | Issue title | HIGH | `rules/issue-title.md` | | Template adherence | MEDIUM | `rules/template-adherence.md` | | No checklists | MEDIUM | `rules/no-checklists.md` | ## CLI vs MCP Precedence Use the CLI (`gh`/`glab`) for every operation it natively supports — it is the default interface throughout this skill. For operations with **no native CLI subcommand** (currently: issue fields — structured priority/effort/date/custom metadata on issues), fall back in this order: 1. **GitHub MCP server tools**, if such a server is connected. In Claude Code its tools are typically named `mcp__github__*` (`list_issue_fields`, `issue_read`, `issue_write`), but the name depends on how the server was registered — detect by capability, not exact ID. Never assume the server is available. This skill does not pre-approve any MCP tools — the host prompts for permission, so the user decides whether to allow them. 2. **`gh api`** against the REST API, sending `-H "X-GitHub-Api-Version: 2026-03-10"`: …

How to install
mdr add tartinerlabs/skills/github-issues@sha256:8970a90febf37639The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261007.6a855c7, 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.
