Code Review

This pull request introduces a new agent skill ($new-feature) for analyzing feature ideas, along with corresponding GitHub issue templates, funding configuration, and agent guidance. The review feedback suggests improving the robustness of the shell commands in the skill documentation by using a static, safe temporary filename to avoid issues with shell-unsafe characters in titles, and providing the explicit gh label create command for creating missing labels.

Important

The consumer version of Gemini Code Assist on GitHub is being sunset. Starting June 18, 2026, new organization installations will be blocked, and all code review activity will officially cease on July 17, 2026.
