gh-issue-drafter SKILL.md skillA

This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.

gh-issue-drafter from northraystudio/maruda is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add northraystudio/maruda/gh-issue-drafter@git:20261007.c71d404

Pins git:20261007.c71d404 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Turn a rough, hand-written intent into a well-scoped GitHub Issue before planning starts. Takes a loose 'what I want' from the user, proposes the missing structure (Done definition, Out of scope, Design constraints), gets the user's approval, and creates the Issue via the gh CLI with a scoped-issue marker so gh-issue-planner can pick it up. When the intent is too large for one Issue, it proposes splitting it into independent Issues or an Epic with sub-issues. This is the human-authored…

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

# GitHub Issue Drafter

## Overview

The quality of everything downstream — the plan, the reviews, the implementation, the
CI verification — is capped by the quality of the Issue that starts it. A rough,
one-line Issue forces every later step to guess at the author's intent.

This skill takes the user's rough intent (the *What*) and, without slowing them down,
proposes the three things a hand-written Issue almost always omits: a machine-checkable
**Done definition**, an explicit **Out of scope**, and optional **Design constraints**.
The user approves or edits the proposal, then the skill creates a structured GitHub
Issue tagged with a marker that `gh-issue-planner` recognizes.

**Scope boundary:** this skill only drafts and files the Issue. It does not investigate
code, propose a response plan, or implement anything. Hand off to `gh-issue-planner`
once the Issue exists.

## When NOT to expand

If the user's input already contains a clear Done definition and scope (e.g. they pasted
a fully-formed Issue, or a `report-to-issues` output), do not re-interrogate them — just
confirm and file. The goal is to fill gaps, not to add ceremony to Issues that are
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add northraystudio/maruda/gh-issue-drafter@sha256:64e762864a700ec0

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261007.c71d404, 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.
