What it does

Create Issue is an agent skill from dyoshikawa/rulesync. Create a GitHub issue with detailed description, purpose, and appropriate labels

Its SKILL.md is about 530 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development. It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: A Utility CLI for AI Coding Agents. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Development work in your project

Example prompts

  • “/create-issue”

Workflow steps

6 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Gather Information
  2. Research Context
  3. Draft the Issue
  4. Assign Labels
  5. Create the Issue
  6. Report Result

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 85bcaf6. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • gh

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md. Its commands use gh, which can reach the network depending on how they are called.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Create Issue loads about 532 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 23 tokens; SKILL.md has 212 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~23
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~532

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Create GitHub Issue

Step 1: Gather Information

Receive the issue topic from $ARGUMENTS or the user's description.

If the information is insufficient, ask the user to clarify the following:

  • What needs to be done (the task or problem)
  • Why it needs to be done (the purpose or motivation)

Step 2: Research Context

Before writing the issue, investigate the relevant parts of the codebase to understand:

  • Which files and modules are affected
  • Existing related code patterns
  • Potential impact and scope of the change

Step 3: Draft the Issue

Important: All issue content (title, body, labels) must be written in English, regardless of the language used in the conversation with the user.

Create a well-structured issue with the following sections:

markdown
## Summary

A concise one-liner describing what this issue is about.

## Motivation / Purpose

Why this change is needed. Explain the problem, user impact, or improvement opportunity.

## Details

Detailed description of what needs to be done:

- Specific changes required
- Files or modules likely affected
- Acceptance criteria or expected behavior

## Additional Context

Any relevant links, screenshots, or references (if applicable).

Step 4: Assign Labels

First, get the available labels from the repository:

bash
gh label list

Then choose appropriate labels from the existing repository labels based on the issue content. Also evaluate whether the issue is suitable for newcomers. If the contribution is straightforward (e.g., small scope, well-defined, minimal domain knowledge required), also assign the good first issue label if it exists in the repository.

Step 5: Create the Issue

bash
gh issue create --title "<concise title>" --body "<drafted body>" --label "<label1>,<label2>,..."

Step 6: Report Result

Output the created issue URL and a summary of:

  • Issue title
  • Assigned labels
  • Whether good first issue was applied and why (or why not)
