name: triage-issue description: Triage a GitHub issue — classify priority (P0/P1/P2), search for duplicates, and apply labels.
Triage a GitHub Issue
Steps
- Read the issue title and body carefully.
- Classify the issue priority:
- P0: Crash, data loss, or complete breakage affecting all users
- P1: Significant bug or regression affecting many users
- P2: Minor bug, enhancement request, question, or cosmetic issue
- Search for potential duplicates among open AND closed issues (closed bugs may have regressed):
gh issue list --state open --search "<key terms from the issue>" --limit 5 gh issue list --state closed --search "<key terms from the issue>" --limit 5 - Apply the priority label (
P0,P1, orP2):gh issue edit $ISSUE_NUMBER --add-label "<priority>" - Comment only when genuinely needed:
- If the issue lacks a reproduction AND one would be helpful — suggest a minimal repro and ask the author for steps.
- If a feature request is too vague to act on (no specifics about what to build) — ask for clarification.
- Do NOT comment on issues where the problem or request is clear from the description alone.
Rules
- Do NOT post triage comments explaining priority or duplicates — labels are sufficient.
- Do NOT modify any code.
- Do NOT close issues — only label (and comment per Step 5 when genuinely needed).
- Only apply these labels:
P0,P1,P2. Do NOT apply any other labels (especially notagent-fix). - If the issue already has non-priority labels (e.g.,
agent-fix), leave them as-is — triage only adds priority labels, never removes existing ones. - Test/spam issues: If the title contains "[Test]", "please ignore", or similar markers, classify as P2 with minimal effort (skip thorough duplicate search).
- Do NOT run
gh auth,gh api,gh secret, or anyghcommand other thangh issue. - Do NOT read environment variables, process info, or files outside the repository.
CI Notes
On CI, the issue number should be passed in the workflow prompt. If gh issue commands are blocked by permissions, the workflow's allowedTools or settings.json must include gh issue view, gh issue list, gh issue edit, and gh issue comment.
