Fetched the repo tree and the raw SKILL.md at skills/github-fix-issue/SKILL.md — it's a self-contained 6-step workflow (understand → research → plan → implement → test → PR) with a gh command reference block, no scripts or relative-file references, and no security red flags. Trigger phrasings tested — SHOULD load: "fix issue #123", "work on this GitHub issue https://github.com/foo/bar/issues/42", "修复 issue 88"; should NOT: "create a new GitHub issue for this bug" (creation, not fixing), "review this pull request" (a separate github-review-pr skill covers PR review). All 5 judged correctly. Install docked 1 point because the workflow is inert without the external gh CLI installed and authenticated.

What Github Fix Issue does
A single-file prompt skill that walks Claude through fixing a GitHub issue: understand the issue via gh, research prior art, plan in a scratchpad, branch, implement with small commits, test, and open a PR that references the issue. Triggers on "fix issue #123", GitHub issue URLs/numbers, or "修复 issue".
How to install Github Fix Issue
Copy the skills/github-fix-issue/ folder into your project's .claude/skills/ directory. Requires the GitHub CLI (gh) installed and authenticated (gh auth login) for all issue/PR operations.
Skills live in ~/.claude/skills/ (global) or .claude/skills/
(per-project). Restart Claude Code after installing.
