+# Bug 77: create_bug_file writes no YAML front matter
+
+## Description
+
+The create_bug_file function in server/src/http/workflow.rs writes no YAML front matter block at all. It starts directly with # Bug N: name. All work item .md files need a ---\nname: \"...\"\ntest_plan: pending\n--- block for the UI front matter parser to work.
+
+## How to Reproduce
+
+1. Call create_bug MCP tool with any name\n2. Open the generated .md file\n3. Observe there is no YAML front matter block - file starts with # Bug
+
+## Actual Result
+
+Bug files have no YAML front matter, causing the UI front matter parser to fail.
+
+## Expected Result
+
+Bug files should have the same --- front matter block as story files, with quoted name and test_plan: pending. See create_story_file (line ~165 in workflow.rs) for the correct pattern to replicate.
+
+## Acceptance Criteria
+
+- [ ] create_bug_file in server/src/http/workflow.rs writes YAML front matter before the markdown heading
+- [ ] The name value is quoted to handle YAML-special characters
+- [ ] Existing tests updated to assert front matter is present
+- [ ] cargo clippy and cargo test pass
