GitHub Issue Creation — Data-Driven Workflow Engine

This skill creates GitHub issues by dynamically fetching field definitions from GitHub issue templates at runtime. Template metadata (triggers, labels, defaults, formatting rules) is stored in per-template JSON config files. Configs can be stored locally or in a GitHub repository for cross-machine and team sharing. The skill itself contains no hardcoded field definitions.
