Each app now lives in its own app-* repository, and the app folders here are overwritten on every app release. Issues and pull requests for an app belong in its repository.

Replace the bug report form with one contact link per app on the new issue page, each leading to the issue tracker of the app repository. The only apps left without a repository are deprecated, so the form has no remaining use. Point the README bug link and the task form to the new issue page, and put the task form notice on single lines so GitHub doesn't render each line break as a hard break.

Add a pull request template that sends app changes to the app repositories and keeps this repository for repository-wide changes.

Update the auto-close bug report link

When a non-member opens a Task issue, the auto-close comment links to the deleted bug report form. The link does not direct the author to the app issue trackers.

Use a direct instruction.

Remove “please” and front the goal: “To report a bug, open an issue in the app’s own repository.”

As per path instructions, “use a direct and authoritative tone” and “front the ‘goal’.”
