Subject: [PATCH] fix: handle backticks in issue bodies when converting to
 discussions
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Consolidate issue fetching and discussion creation into single step
to avoid template literal injection issues. Issue data now stays in
JavaScript context instead of being passed through GitHub Actions
template interpolation, preventing syntax errors when issue bodies
contain backticks or other special characters.
