Enhance GitHub issue creation workflow with procedures and templates #1100

Description

Problem Statement

When users ask "create a GitHub issue for xyz", the current workflow doesn't automatically incorporate:

  • Existing procedures that might be relevant
  • GitHub issue templates that provide structure
  • Contextual guidance based on issue type

Proposed Solution

Create procedures that enhance the GitHub issue creation workflow to:

  1. Auto-detect issue type from user request and suggest appropriate template
  2. Cross-reference procedures - automatically link relevant procedures based on keywords
  3. Inject context - pull in relevant documentation, principles, or procedures
  4. Template selection - guide agents to use appropriate issue templates

Implementation Ideas

  • Create procedure: github-issue-creation.md with decision tree for issue types
  • Enhance slash commands to incorporate template selection
  • Build mapping between common requests and issue templates
  • Add procedure for agents to scan for relevant context before creating issues

Example Workflow

User: "create a github issue for improving MCP server logging"

Agent should:

  1. Recognize this as a technical enhancement
  2. Use appropriate issue template
  3. Reference existing MCP procedures
  4. Include relevant context from knowledge base

Acceptance Criteria

  • Procedure documentation created
  • Slash command enhancement (if needed)
  • Issue templates are discoverable by agents
  • Workflow reduces manual template selection
  • Context injection improves issue quality

  • snowball-method - Knowledge accumulation through better templates
