Create GitHub issues from a plan, bug, finding, audit or PRD, whose titles and bodies a stranger can act on. Use when filing issues or turning work into issue-sized slices. Routes unresolved decisions to a plain-language Question/Why/Questions/Done when shape; writes each issue in its verifier's language as Outcome plus Done when; makes each issue one cause with one fix, adding new sightings to the existing issue; labels by issue kind with bug priority; wires real sub-issue, blocked-by, and…
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
# To issues clearly Turn a plan, bug report, audit finding, or PRD into live GitHub issues that explain the outcome clearly enough for another person to implement and verify. The tracker is the publication surface. Draft in the conversation, then create or edit the issue directly with GitHub. The skill supplies judgment and a repeatable shape; GitHub supplies the issue number, labels, and relationships. ## Choose the issue shape before writing The title and body depend on what the source is asking for. Do not force every issue into a defect-shaped template. - **Decision:** a product, policy, workflow, or boundary choice is unresolved. Use an imperative title such as `Decide where customers book online` and the decision template below. - **Change, fix, or capability:** the issue exists to make the product do something. Use an imperative desired-outcome title such as `Show seller-linked colour photos in the storefront before vision processing completes` or `Keep a failed upload available for retry`. - **Reported defect or contract failure:** the issue exists to record and investigate what is wrong now. Use the observed-action-and-consequence title shape below. …

How to install
mdr add checkpickerupper/skills/to-issues-clearly@sha256:946c2ffdfa0c545cThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261021.61c15fb, 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.
