### `check_duplicate_issue` (~104 tokens)

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.

- `owner` (string, required): GitHub repository owner
- `repo` (string, required): GitHub repository name
