AutoGineer summary
Written by AutoGineer from the skill’s own files, not by the author
The GitHub Issue Creator transforms unstructured information such as error logs, voice notes, or screenshots into standardized, actionable GitHub issue reports. It follows a specific markdown template to ensure consistency, including sections for summary, environment, reproduction steps, expected versus actual behavior, error details, and impact assessment. The skill is designed to extract key facts from informal input and organize them into a clear format suitable for development tracking.
What it does
- Parses raw input like error logs and voice dictation into structured markdown.
- Applies a consistent template for GitHub issue reporting.
- Infers missing context from conversation history to fill in report details.
- Assigns severity levels based on the described impact.
- Formats visual evidence references for inclusion in reports.
- Generates markdown files with a standardized naming convention in the repository.
When to use it
- When you have raw error logs that need to be documented as a formal issue.
- When you want to convert informal voice notes or casual descriptions into a structured bug report.
- When you need to report a bug but lack the time to manually format the issue.
- When you have screenshots or GIFs that need to be referenced in a technical issue report.
Advantages
- Reduces manual effort in formatting bug reports.
- Ensures consistent information is captured across all reported issues.
- Helps clarify technical issues by separating facts from casual descriptions.
- Standardizes the documentation of error details and reproduction steps.
Usage examples
- “I just tried to deploy the agent and it failed silently; it disappeared from the list after the workflow ran.”
- Generates a structured GitHub issue report with a summary, reproduction steps, and high-impact assessment based on the silent failure.
- “Error: PERMISSION_DENIED when publishing to Teams channel. Code: 403. It was working yesterday.”
- Produces a formatted issue report including the error code, expected behavior, and a note regarding the regression.

GitHub Issue Creator
Transform messy input (error logs, voice notes, screenshots) into clean, actionable GitHub issues.
Output Template
## 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: 
Examples
Input (voice dictation):
so I was trying to deploy the agent and it just failed silently no error nothing the workflow ran but then poof gone from the list had to refresh and try again three times
Output:
## Summary
Agent deployment fails silently - no error displayed, agent disappears from list
## Environment
- **Product/Service**: Azure AI Foundry
- **Region/Version**: westus2
## Reproduction Steps
1. Navigate to agent deployment
2. Configure and deploy agent
3. Observe workflow completes
4. Check agent list
## Expected Behavior
Agent appears in list with deployment status, errors shown if deployment fails
## Actual Behavior
Agent disappears from list. No error message. Requires page refresh and retry.
## Impact
**High** - Blocks agent deployment workflow, no feedback on failure cause
## Additional Context
Required 3 retry attempts before successful deploymentInput (error paste):
Error: PERMISSION_DENIED when publishing to Teams channel. Code: 403. Was working yesterday.
Output:
## Summary
403 PERMISSION_DENIED error when publishing to Teams channel
## Environment
- **Product/Service**: Copilot Studio → Teams integration
- **Region/Version**: [REGION]
## Reproduction Steps
1. Configure agent for Teams channel
2. Attempt to publish
## Expected Behavior
Agent publishes successfully to Teams channel
## Actual Behavior
Returns `PERMISSION_DENIED` with code 403
## Error DetailsError: PERMISSION_DENIED Code: 403
## Impact
**High** - Blocks Teams integration, regression from previous working state
## Additional Context
Was working yesterday - possible permission/config change or service regressionFiles
