OK @juruen can you make an issue to re-visit the CSV style, and use proper JSON RPC arrays once it works?

Context
This PR adds a tool for creating an issue. We initially postponed this feature to wait for mcp-go to support arrays for describing arguments.
The library finally added support for arrays a few days ago. However, my first implementation, which used them, caused issues in VS Code.
Since VS Code is my main test platform, I decided to implement the array using a comma-separated list instead. We can revisit this decision once the issue is resolved.
