Overall the issue templates are well-structured and will significantly improve the quality of incoming reports and questions. The main improvements are to avoid unsupported root-level type fields in the bug and feature templates and to slightly tighten the environment guidance in the bug template to better reflect typical Ultralytics CLIP usage.

These structured issue templates are exactly that: thoughtful pieces that, together, will make our support, triage, and community collaboration smoother and more scalable. From clearer bug reports to more focused feature requests and questions, this will save maintainers time while giving users a better experience and clearer path to contribute.
