Take a GitHub issue onto the branch — export the thread and its attachments, commit them, and hand the number back to whoever called. Invoke as `/take-issue <number|url>`; its callers are `/task`, `/plan` and `/go`, each running it first when the prompt carries a `#<N>`.

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

End state of this skill: `docs/issue/<n>/` holds the thread and its attachments,
that export is committed on the branch, you have read it, and control is back
with the caller — which is where every decision about the work is made.

This skill decides nothing. It is the one place an issue gets pulled onto a
branch, so its contract to its callers is that the issue has been **taken**:
exported, committed, and there for a later session to re-read.

## Argument shape

The argument is an issue number or a full issue URL, optionally with prose
around it — `fix the sidebar scroll #847` is the same invocation as `847`. The
prose is the operator's own summary of the issue and is worth reading as a hint
at what they care about, but **the export outranks it**: where the two disagree,
the thread is what the work is against.

## Step 0 — Mode gate: native plan mode is not supported

If the session is in **native plan mode** — the launch banner or system prompt
says so, `ExitPlanMode` is the offered exit, or an edit is refused for that
reason — **stop before running anything below.** Tell the operator:

- this flow is plan-**file**-based (`@.claude/skills/plan/SKILL.md`), and native
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add vzakharov/muthur/take-issue@sha256:a5789f46a7928a01

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261014.0f16275, 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.
