Fix GitHub Issue

When to Use

• You have a GitHub Issue number and want to resolve it from scratch
• Debugging a reported bug with a clear reproduction case
• Picking up an issue from the backlog and implementing the fix
• Fast-track for "good first issue" or well-scoped bug reports

Differentiation from github-issue-triage: This skill fixes issues (code changes, tests, PR). github-issue-triage is for organizing and classifying issues in bulk.

Prerequisites

• GitHub MCP server available (built-in to Copilot CLI)
• Write access to the repository for creating a branch and PR
• gh CLI installed (for branch creation and PR fallback)
