Description

Overhaul the GitHub issue templates and PR template for consistency, clarity, and to support issue types.

  • Clean up front matter: fix labels syntax, remove unused fields (title, assignees, projects), add type field
  • Improve about descriptions to be concise and help users pick the right template
  • Add new templates for Epic, Task, and Spike issue types
  • Add config.yml to disable blank issues
  • Simplify template bodies: remove low-value sections (Additional Context, Tasks), streamline callout blocks
  • Update Related Issues comments to guide users toward bulleted lists for auto-expanded titles
  • Update PR template checklist: clarify pnpm checks and pnpm test items, replace changelog item with documentation item
  • Update GitHub skill to map issue types to their corresponding templates

Validation

Create a new issue on GitHub and verify the template picker shows all five types in order with correct descriptions. Verify blank issues are disabled.
