Create GitHub Issues

Execute automated GitHub issue creation workflow for $ARGUMENTS following TDD principles and conventional commit standards.

Context

• Current git status: !git status
• Current branch: !git branch --show-current
• Open issues: !gh issue list --state open --limit 10
• GitHub authentication: !gh auth status

Requirements Summary

Follow TDD principles, conventional commits, and protected branch workflows. Use proper labels, auto-closing keywords, and atomic commits. See references/requirements.md for complete standards.

Phase 1: Repository Analysis

Goal: Assess repository state, detect templates, and determine issue scope and type.

Actions:

1. Analyze current branch from context (main/develop vs PR branch)
2. Review open issues to identify duplicates or related work
3. Check for contributing guidelines (CONTRIBUTING.md) and follow its requirements
4. Detect issue templates in .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/ directory
5. If templates exist: select appropriate template using gh issue create --list
6. Determine issue type (epic, PR-scoped, or review) based on $ARGUMENTS complexity
7. Apply branch-based decision logic from references/decision-logic.md

See references/repository-templates.md for template detection and compliance details.

Phase 2: Issue Creation

Goal: Create GitHub issue with proper structure, labels, and links.

Actions:

1. Create or verify required priority labels exist (see references/decision-logic.md for commands)
2. Draft issue following structure requirements in references/issue-structure.md
3. Apply appropriate labels (priority, type)
4. Add auto-closing keywords if PR-scoped issue (NOT for epics)
5. Link to related issues or epics if applicable

Phase 3: Documentation and Handoff

Goal: Document decisions and communicate follow-up actions.

Actions:

1. Document branch strategy decision and rationale
2. Report created issue number and URL to user
3. If on PR branch and blocking: add detailed comment to PR instead of creating issue
4. Share next steps (create PR, assign to team member, etc.)
