Convert raw notes, error logs, voice dictation, or screenshots into crisp GitHub-flavored markdown issue reports.

  • SKILL.md covers Output Template, Output Location, Guidelines and Examples
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md
  • Informal descriptions and wants a structured GitHub issue

What it does

GitHub Issue Creator is an agent skill from microsoft/skills, published by the product's own GitHub organization. Convert raw notes, error logs, voice dictation, or screenshots into crisp GitHub-flavored markdown issue reports. Use when the user pastes bug info, error messages, or informal descriptions and wants a structured GitHub issue. Supports images/GIFs for visual evidence.

Its SKILL.md is about 910 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, covering Issue triage and Transcription. It works with GitHub. The repository describes itself as: Skills, MCP servers, Custom Agents, Agents.md for SDKs to ground Coding Agents. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • The user pastes bug info
  • Informal descriptions and wants a structured GitHub issue

Example prompts

  • “/github-issue-creator”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 354361d. 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

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are markdown).

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

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    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

GitHub Issue Creator loads about 910 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 72 tokens; SKILL.md has 196 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~72
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~910

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.

GitHub Issue Creator

Transform messy input (error logs, voice notes, screenshots) into clean, actionable GitHub issues.

Output Template

markdown
## Summary
[One-line description of the issue]

## Environment
- **Product/Service**: 
- **Region/Version**: 
- **Browser/OS**: (if relevant)

## Reproduction Steps
1. [Step]
2. [Step]
3. [Step]

## Expected Behavior
[What should happen]

## Actual Behavior
[What actually happens]

## Error Details

[Error message/code if applicable]


## Visual Evidence
[Reference to attached screenshots/GIFs]

## Impact
[Severity: Critical/High/Medium/Low + brief explanation]

## Additional Context
[Any other relevant details]

Output Location

Create issues as markdown files in /issues/ directory at the repo root. Use naming convention: YYYY-MM-DD-short-description.md

Guidelines

Be crisp: No fluff. Every word should add value.

Extract structure from chaos: Voice dictation and raw notes often contain the facts buried in casual language. Pull them out.

Infer missing context: If user mentions "same project" or "the dashboard", use context from conversation or memory to fill in specifics.

Placeholder sensitive data: Use [PROJECT_NAME], [USER_ID], etc. for anything that might be sensitive.

Match severity to impact:

  • Critical: Service down, data loss, security issue
  • High: Major feature broken, no workaround
  • Medium: Feature impaired, workaround exists
  • Low: Minor inconvenience, cosmetic

Image/GIF handling: Reference attachments inline. Format: ![Description](attachment-name.png)

Examples
