Replace the original checklist + manual testing section with a
unified checklist modeled after the Paperclip open-source project:
thinking path, model disclosure, local tests, test coverage,
UI screenshots, documentation, risk assessment, and reviewer comments.
Adds a new "Manual Testing / Acceptance" section to the PR template
with checklist items for verifying changes in a real environment:
happy path, edge cases, visual regressions, cross-platform testing,
API consumer compatibility, and log inspection.
* chore: add issue templates and improve PR template
Add GitHub issue templates (bug report, feature request) using YAML
forms, referencing hermes-agent's template structure. Update the PR
template with clearer sections for changes made, related issues, and
a more comprehensive checklist.
* chore: add AI disclosure section to PR template
Since most PRs are now authored or co-authored by AI coding tools,
add a dedicated AI Disclosure section to the PR template. Includes
authorship type, tool used, and a human review checklist to ensure
AI-generated code is properly reviewed before merge.
* chore: simplify AI disclosure to focus on prompt sharing
Remove the review-status checklist — it was too heavy and users won't
actually do it. Instead focus on what's useful: which AI tool was used
and what prompt/approach produced the code, so the team can learn from
each other's AI workflows.
* chore: simplify issue templates to lower submission friction
Bug report: just what happened + steps to reproduce (required),
plus an optional context field for logs/env.
Feature request: just what you want and why (required),
plus an optional proposed solution.
Removed all dropdowns, environment fields, checkboxes, and
other fields that discourage users from filing issues.
* chore: add screenshots section to issue templates
Add optional screenshots field to both bug report and feature request
templates so users can attach images for richer context.
Encourage contributors to share the prompt they used when AI tools
were involved, helping reviewers understand intent and enabling
knowledge sharing across the community.
Adds a structured PR template requiring change description, motivation,
type classification, test plan, and an optional AI disclosure field.
Part of the Phase 1 community management improvements (MUL-320).
