Should new issues include a take/untake reminder?

[Phoenix500526]

Context

Maka lets contributors self-assign an unclaimed issue by posting a comment whose entire body is take. Posting untake removes the assignment. These commands are documented in the contributing guides, but contributors may not see them when they open an issue.

PR #4127 proposes posting a short automated reminder on every newly opened issue.

Proposed behavior

When someone opens an issue, a workflow would add this comment:

Thanks for opening this issue.

Use one of these commands:

• take: Assign this issue to yourself.
• untake: Unassign yourself from this issue.

This would put the commands at the point where a contributor may need them. It would also add a notification and an automated comment to every new issue, including issues whose authors do not intend to work on them.

Questions

1. Is there still a discoverability gap even though take and untake are documented in the contributing guides?
2. Should every new issue receive this reminder?
3. If an automatic comment is too noisy, where should these commands be surfaced instead?

Implementation under review: #4127
