Megaproject â high spam risk
Could not determine 'zotero/web-library' star count (GitHub API rate-limited or unreachable). When in doubt about repo size, prefer opening a focused PR or a discussion rather than an issue.

The button opens GitHubâs new-issue page in a new tab. You will see the title + body pre-filled â review, edit if you want, then click GitHubâs "Submit new issue" button. Repobility never posts anything on your behalf.

For real security findings on big repos: use the project's SECURITY.md or private advisory flow instead of a public issue.
