# Issue report — report template

This is a nested `lingtai-issue-report` reference: the canonical structure for an issue report — subject/title, body sections, and how to deliver it through the right channel before any filing decision.

## The report template

Send the report as a mail message with a clear subject and a structured body. Use this skeleton:

```
Subject: [Issue Report] <one-line summary>

## What's wrong
<concise statement of the problem — one paragraph>

## Where
- Component: <skill name / capability name / preset name / procedure section>
- File or URL (if known): <path or URL>

## Reproduction
<exact steps you took, exact tool calls, exact responses you got. Include
verbatim error messages, status codes, or contradictory text.>

## What you expected
<what the docs/skill led you to expect>

## What actually happened
<what you observed instead>

## Severity
<one of: blocking | major | minor | cosmetic>
- blocking — agents cannot complete the affected workflow at all
- major — a documented feature is broken or absent; workaround exists but costs time
- minor — incorrect detail; doesn't break workflows but misleads new agents
- cosmetic — typo, formatting, broken link in a doc

## Suggested fix (optional)
<if you have a concrete suggestion, include it. otherwise omit this section.>
```

Keep the section headers verbatim — they double as the GitHub-flavored markdown issue body later, and GFM renders them cleanly. The title used for filing is your `Subject` line **minus the `[Issue Report]` prefix**.

## Send it through the right channel first

Before any filing decision, send the report so there is a durable record and your parent/human can see it. Use the channel they are actually using:

```python
# Internal LingTai email / peer mail
email(action="send", address=<parent_or_human_address>, subject="[Issue Report] ...", message=<body>)

# If the human is currently on Telegram/another chat channel, send or reply there instead.
# Always follow the surrounding agent's channel discipline.
```

Send it to your **parent avatar** (if you're an avatar) AND to the **human** — the same content to each, sent explicitly per channel.

## Which repo

The umbrella issue tracker for end-user reports is **`Lingtai-AI/lingtai`** (the binary humans actually install). File there even if the underlying bug is in `lingtai-kernel`, a sibling skill repo, or a preset — the maintainers will route or transfer as needed.

If the human happens to know the issue is kernel-specific (e.g. they're a developer), they may prefer `https://github.com/Lingtai-AI/lingtai-kernel/issues`. Don't second-guess; let them choose.

The canonical org is **`Lingtai-AI`** on GitHub. If `https://github.com/Lingtai-AI` itself 404s one day, the project has likely moved; ask the human where to file instead.

## Self-healing

This skill itself can have bugs. If the report template here is missing a section that you find yourself wanting, or if the GitHub URLs in this reference 404 (the org may rename, repos may move), include a note in your report saying "the issue-report skill says X but Y is what I actually found" — and the maintainers will update this skill.
