Reduce the fields that gate submission of the bug-report issue form so reporters aren't blocked by triage-only metadata. Every field is kept (they still help triage), but only two now block submission. Made optional (required: true -> false): - "What kind of report is this?" (report-type) - "Steps to reproduce" (reproduction) - "How did you install privacycommand?" (install-method) - "privacycommand version" (app-version) - "macOS version + chip" (macos-version) - "Privileged helper status" (helper-status) - "I searched existing issues and didn't find a duplicate." checkbox Still required: - "What happened?" (summary) - "This is not a security vulnerability." acknowledgment checkbox Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

Summary
Closes #2 — the bug-report issue form required too many fields, blocking reporters on triage-only metadata.
This is a config-only change to
.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/bug_report.yml. Every field is kept (they all still have triage value); we only reduce which ones gate submission.Fields made optional (
