The bug report command helps users save bug reports in the current repository. This command will generate a detailed bug report from your description of the bug. Genie will analyze the issue and generate a structured report with:

  • Steps to reproduce
  • Expected vs actual behavior
  • Potential fixes
  • Severity and category classification

All the information is saved in a markdown file in the bugs directory categorized by priority order.
