SKILL

When the user asks to create or update an issue, follow these steps:

1. Gather Context

Read the following to understand available issue types and their required fields:

• bug-report.yml
• feature-request.yml

If updating an existing issue, read its current title, body, labels, and comments first.

2. Determine Issue Type

Based on the user's description, select the appropriate template:

• Bug report (bug-report.yml) — something is broken or behaves unexpectedly
• Feature request (feature-request.yml) — a new capability or enhancement
• Blank issue — if neither template fits

3. Compose the Issue

Fill in the template fields based on information from the user and the codebase. For bug reports, run python scripts/diagnose.py to gather system info if possible.

When updating, ensure the title and body still accurately reflect the current state of the issue.

4. Check for Duplicates

Search for existing issues before creating:

gh issue list --repo verl-project/verl --state open --search "<keywords>"

If a duplicate exists, inform the user instead of creating a new one.

5. Create or Update the Issue

• Create: add good first issue and/or call for contribution labels if the issue is straightforward and suitable for new contributors.
• Update: update title, body, and labels as needed.

Return the issue URL when done.
