## What it does

\`create-scrap-issue` takes everything supplied by the user and turns it into a single GitHub issue. The issue uses three sections: Background, Details, and Solution / Next Steps. It also creates a descriptive title and always applies the `maintainer-scrap` label.

Before opening the issue, the skill checks repository labels with `gh label list` and can add labels such as `bug`, `enhancement`, `documentation`, or `refactor` when the content calls for them. It creates the issue through `gh issue create`. The resulting issue is written in English, including when the source notes are in another language.

## Requirements
- Works with: GitHub

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add dyoshikawa/rulesync --skill create-scrap-issue -a claude-code
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `~/.claude/skills/create-scrap-issue/SKILL.md` — Copy the whole skill folder; for one project use .claude/skills/create-scrap-issue/

### Codex

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add dyoshikawa/rulesync --skill create-scrap-issue -a codex
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.agents/skills/create-scrap-issue/SKILL.md` — For all projects use ~/.agents/skills/

### Cursor

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add dyoshikawa/rulesync --skill create-scrap-issue -a cursor
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.cursor/skills/create-scrap-issue/SKILL.md` — Cursor also reads .agents/skills/ and .claude/skills/

### GitHub Copilot

1. **GitHub CLI**
```bash
gh skill install dyoshikawa/rulesync create-scrap-issue
```

2. **Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.github/skills/create-scrap-issue/SKILL.md`

### Gemini CLI

1. **Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add dyoshikawa/rulesync --skill create-scrap-issue -a gemini-cli
```

2. **Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini skills install https://github.com/dyoshikawa/rulesync --path .rulesync/skills/create-scrap-issue
```

### Windsurf (Devin Desktop)

**Manually: put the files in place**
- File: `.devin/skills/create-scrap-issue/SKILL.md` — The legacy .windsurf/skills/ path still works

### OpenCode

**Skills CLI (Vercel)**
```bash
npx skills add dyoshikawa/rulesync --skill create-scrap-issue -a opencode
```

### Claude.ai

**Claude.ai**
- Zip the folder and upload it in Settings → Capabilities → Skills

Where a file is given instead of a command, copy the files from the source to that path: https://github.com/dyoshikawa/rulesync/tree/HEAD/.rulesync/skills/create-scrap-issue/SKILL.md

## When to use it
- turn scattered notes into one GitHub issue
- preserve context around a finding for later review
- outline a solution and actionable next steps
- apply the `maintainer-scrap` label to an issue
- choose extra labels from the issue content

## Example prompts
- Create a scrap issue from these notes about the failed build and the checks I already ran.
- Turn this finding into one GitHub issue with background, details, and next steps.
- Save this investigation as a scrap issue and add any suitable labels.

BEGIN THIRD-PARTY FILE 28652680fde6e55a

name: create-scrap-issue
description: >-
  Create a GitHub issue that consolidates passed content into a single scrap
  issue with background context and solution details, labeled as
  maintainer-scrap. Use when the user wants to create a scrap issue, jot down
  notes as a GitHub issue, or save findings for later.
targets:
  - "*"
---

Create a single GitHub issue that consolidates all the content provided by the user.

## Requirements

- Write the issue entirely in English.
- Always attach the `maintainer-scrap` label to the issue.
- Additionally, judge whether other labels are appropriate based on the content and attach them as needed. For example:
  - `bug` — if the content describes a defect or unexpected behavior
  - `enhancement` — if the content proposes a new feature or improvement
  - `documentation` — if the content relates to docs updates
  - `refactor` — if the content discusses code restructuring
  - Use `gh label list` to check available labels in the repository before attaching.
- Structure the issue so it is easy to understand even when revisited later:
  - **Background**: Describe the context, motivation, and why this matters.
  - **Details**: Include the specific content, observations, or problems passed by the user.
  - **Solution / Next Steps**: Propose a solution or outline actionable next steps.
- Use a clear, descriptive title that summarizes the scrap topic.
- Use `gh issue create` to create the issue.

## Workflow

1. Review the content provided by the user.
2. Organize and enrich it with background information and proposed solutions.
3. Check available labels with `gh label list` and determine which labels to attach in addition to `maintainer-scrap`.
4. Draft the issue body in the structure above.
5. Create the issue with the appropriate labels using `gh issue create --label maintainer-scrap --label <other-labels>`.
