No issue template chooser config or PR template existed, making it harder for contributors to file well-structured issues or PRs.

Changes

  • .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/config.yml — keeps blank issues enabled (contributors can still open freeform issues) and surfaces the Q&A Discussions link as an alternative contact point
  • .github/PULL_REQUEST_TEMPLATE.md — adds a PR template with description, related issue, type-of-change selector, and a checklist aligned to the project's Rhiza workflow (make fmt, make test, make deptry, docs, Conventional Commits)
