docs/issues - Issue Specification Files
This directory contains markdown files that are automatically converted to GitHub Issues when merged to main or development.
How It Works
- Create a markdown file in this directory using the template format
- Add YAML frontmatter with issue metadata (title, labels, priority, etc.)
- Merge to main/development - the
docs-to-issues.ymlworkflow runs - GitHub Issue is created with your specified metadata
- File is moved to
docs/issues/created/to prevent duplicates
