Problem Statement
No issue templates exist in .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/. Contributors filing issues have no guidance on required information.
Evidence
.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/ directory does not exist.
Impact
Incomplete, low-quality issues that lack reproducibility steps, environment details, or expected behavior. Maintainer time wasted requesting basic information.
Proposed Solution
Create two issue templates:
bug_report.yml — steps to reproduce, expected vs actual behavior, environment (Node version, OS, browser), screenshots
feature_request.yml — problem statement, proposed solution, alternatives considered, impact
Acceptance Criteria
File Map
.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/bug_report.yml — new
.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/feature_request.yml — new
.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/config.yml — new (optional, blank issues disabled)
