Tool Tokens
check_duplicate_issue ~104

Find the most likely existing open GitHub issues that could be related to a proposed issue. This tool retrieves open issues and performs cheap lexical candidate ranking. Treat the returned issues as candidates only; semantic duplicate determination must be done by the AI. Do not call list_github_issues separately for duplicate checking.
