Remove [EPIC]/[Ticket] bracket title prefix from issue templates #199
Remove [EPIC] /[Ticket] bracket title prefix from issue templates
🧠 Summary
This repo's issue templates (.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/epic.md and ticket.md) have title: "[EPIC] " / title: "[Ticket] " baked into the frontmatter. This is not a GitHub standard — it's an artifact of GitHub's web "New issue" picker pre-filling the title box from the template frontmatter. Issues created via the web UI inherit the bracket; issues created via the repo-scaffold CLI (issue create --title) never read the template, so they stay clean. This caused inconsistent titles across the repo's issue list. The companion fix already landed in blairg23/repo-scaffold#177.
📦 Scope
Change title: "[EPIC] " → title: "" in .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/epic.md
Change title: "[Ticket] " → title: "" in .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/ticket.md
🚫 Out of Scope
Renaming existing issues that already have the bracket prefix (handled separately, on a case-by-case basis)
Any code/CLI changes — this is a template-only fix local to this repo
✅ Acceptance Criteria
Both templates' title: frontmatter field is empty
name/about/labels fields are unchanged
🧪 Testing / Validation
Open a new issue via the GitHub web UI using each template and confirm the title field is empty by default
