Feedback Intake

Nimbalyst Feedback Skill

This skill is the entry point for the Nimbalyst in-app feedback flow. It activates when:

• The user runs the /feedback:bug-report slash command
• The user runs the /feedback:feature-request slash command
• The user opens a session with sessionType: 'bug-report' or sessionType: 'feature-request'

Behavior

Read the matching command file:

• For bug reports: commands/bug-report.md in this plugin
• For feature requests: commands/feature-request.md in this plugin

Both commands share these constraints:

1. The user is the gate. Never call mcp__nimbalyst-situational__feedback_open_github_issue without explicit user approval of the final title and body.
2. Anonymize aggressively. Run anything that includes file paths, log content, environment strings, or workspace identifiers through mcp__nimbalyst-situational__feedback_anonymize_text first, then read the output and redact anything else that looks sensitive.
3. Honor the intake flags. Bug-report sessions include Log gathering: allowed or Log gathering: not allowed; feature-request sessions may include UX mockup: requested or UX mockup: not requested. Only bug reports may read logs, and only when log gathering is allowed.
4. Handle long reports. When the drafted body exceeds the URL safe length, the URL builder returns reason: 'too-long'. Fall back to: show the body in chat, open a no-body URL, tell the user to paste.
5. Target repo and templates. Bug reports use bug_report.yml; feature requests use feature_request.yml. Both target nimbalyst/nimbalyst. Don't hardcode the URL — let the URL builder handle template selection and field-id routing. The GitHub issue type (Bug / Feature) and status:needs-triage label come from the template frontmatter, not from the URL builder.

Tools available

• mcp__nimbalyst-situational__feedback_anonymize_text(text) → returns anonymized string
• mcp__nimbalyst-situational__feedback_get_environment() → app version, OS, recent error counts
• mcp__nimbalyst-situational__feedback_open_github_issue({ kind, title, body }) → opens GitHub new-issue page in browser, returns { ok, opened, reason?, url? }
• mcp__nimbalyst-extension-dev__get_main_process_logs({ lastLines, searchTerm, logLevel, component }) → only with consent
• mcp__nimbalyst-extension-dev__get_renderer_debug_logs({ lastLines, searchTerm, logLevel }) → only with consent

Important

• Don't add "generated by AI" or "Co-Authored-By" lines to the issue body.
• Don't claim the issue was submitted; the user clicks Submit on github.com themselves.
• If the user pivots from a bug to a feature mid-conversation (or vice versa), say so and switch templates.
