/bug - Create Bug Task

Create a bug/defect task with the provided title and optional description.

Usage

/bug <title>
/bug <title> - <description>

Examples

/bug Fix login timeout
/bug Database connection drops - Users report intermittent connection failures after 5 minutes of inactivity

Action

Create a bug task with the following parameters:

• •title: The bug title from user input
• •task_type: "bug"
• •priority: 1 (high - bugs are important)

Parse the user input:

• •Try splitting on common delimiter patterns: -, --, — (em dash), – (en dash)
• •Use regex pattern \s*[-–—]+\s* to split once (first match only)
• •If a delimiter is found, assign the left part as title and right part as description
• •If no delimiter is found, use entire input as title and set description to null

call_tool(
    server_name="gobby-tasks",
    tool_name="create_task",
    arguments={
        "title": "<parsed title>",
        "description": "<parsed description or null>",  # Use null, not empty string
        "task_type": "bug",
        "priority": 1,
        "session_id": "<session_id>"  # Required - from session context
    }
)

Error Handling

Missing session_id

The session_id parameter is required. If session context is unavailable:

1. •User-facing error: Display "Session context unavailable — please sign in or retry"
2. •Behavior: Fail gracefully with a clear error message; do not create partial tasks
3. •Fallback options:
   • •Prompt the user to provide a session ID manually
   • •Implement retry logic with exponential backoff if the session service is temporarily unavailable
   • •Check get_current_session from gobby-sessions to obtain or refresh the session

# Example error handling
session_id = get_session_context()
if not session_id:
    return error("Session context unavailable — please sign in or retry")

After creating, confirm with the task reference (e.g., "Created bug #123: Fix login timeout").
