 * **Pattern:** Extract repeated `embedMessage.edit()` and typing indicator loops into a helper function (e.g. `_animate_update`).
 * **Why:** The sequential reveal of complex Discord embeds clutters the main logic loop.
 * **Rule:** When multiple sequential embeds updates are tied to typing animations, move the boilerplate into a standalone helper method.

+### Command Handler Refactoring
+* **Date:** 2026-07-10
+* **Pattern:** Extract identical inline command handler logic into a shared helper method (e.g., `submitQuickIssue`).
+* **Why:** Monolithic switch statements for Discord interaction routing grow unmanageable when complex logic (like truncating strings, interacting with GitHub APIs, and sending DMs) is duplicated inline.
+* **Rule:** If two or more commands share more than 10 lines of identical logic inside the main switch statement, extract the logic into a typed standalone function.

+ * Helper method to handle inline quick issue submissions for bugs and feature requests.
+ *
+ * Why: Both `/bug` and `/featurerequest` slash commands duplicate the logic
+ * to truncate text, resolve the reporter's name, submit the payload via the
+ * issue tracking service, and handle errors.
+ * What: Consolidates the common Github issue creation logic into a single method
+ * that takes the interaction context, issue text, and the target issue type.
+ *
+ * @param sender The interaction sender abstraction used to defer and reply.
+ * @param interaction The original chat input command interaction.
+ * @param issueType The type of issue being submitted ('bug' | 'feature').
+ * @param quickText The short text provided by the user.
