I'm a fan of this. My own projects on GitHub have an action[1] which autocloses and autolocks any opened issues until they have been reviewed and accepted by me, and I only consider feature requests from sponsors.

The real miss here is that there isn't a way on GitHub to only allow maintainers to create issues, instead we are left with these subpar workarounds.

1. Set a default label for issues (e.g. “autoclose”) 2. Make your auto closing and locking logic based on that label (eg the label-actions github action) 3. As a maintainer, remember to remove the label when creating an issue!
