Research direction
Start by reading CONTRIBUTING.md and SECURITY.md, then inspect the existing .github/ contents. Add the four specified templates and ensure their prompts and checklist match the issue; verify that templates appear on the fork's New issue page and run node scripts/check-boundary.js.
Written by the indexing model from the issue text.
Description
The repo has no issue or pull request templates, so reports often arrive without steps to reproduce and pull requests skip the checks in CONTRIBUTING.md.
What to do
Add under .github/:
ISSUE_TEMPLATE/bug_report.yml: steps to reproduce, expected vs actual, browser, and whether it is codearena.co or a self-hosted copy.ISSUE_TEMPLATE/new_problem.yml: problem idea, difficulty, tags, and a reminder that problems must be original work.ISSUE_TEMPLATE/config.yml: point security reports toSECURITY.mdinstead of public issues.pull_request_template.md: a checklist withnpm test,npm run validate:problems(if problems changed) andnode scripts/check-boundary.js.
