2025-09-04ai: add `gh-issue` command to help diagnose GitHub issuesMitchell Hashimoto
This enables agents (namely Amp) to use `/gh-issue <number/url>` to begin diagnosing a GitHub issue, explaining the problem, and suggesting a plan of action. This action explicitly prompts the AI to not write code. I've used this manually for months with good results, so now I'm formalizing it in the repo for other contributors. Example diagnosing #8523: https://ampcode.com/threads/T-3e26e8cc-83d1-4e3c-9b5e-02d9111909a7
