magpie

Open-source project maintenance: PR triage, security handling, releases

Automates the repetitive maintenance work of open-source projects: PR triage and review, issue reproduction and backlog sweeps, security report handling through CVE publication, release candidate verification, and newcomer mentoring. Eliminates manual queue sweeps, copy-paste CVE record filling, and slow first-response times for contributors. Every state-changing action is drafted for maintainer confirmation, so maintainers keep full control while skipping the mechanical work.

Frequently Asked Questions

FAQPage Schema

How to install Apache Magpie?▼

Run `npx skills add apache/magpie --all -g -y` in your terminal to install all skills globally. Alternatively, adopt it into a project repo as a pinned snapshot by following the install recipes in the repository's docs/setup folder.

What does Apache Magpie do for open-source maintainers?▼

It automates repetitive maintenance work: triaging PR queues, reproducing and reassessing old issues, handling security reports through CVE allocation and advisory publication, verifying release candidates, and drafting newcomer mentoring replies.

Can Magpie merge PRs or publish releases on its own?▼

No. Every state-changing action is a proposal the maintainer explicitly confirms, and the framework never holds signing keys, merges PRs, or publishes releases by design.

Which AI agents work with Apache Magpie?▼

All skills use the vendor-neutral SKILL.md format and run in Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot, Windsurf, Goose, and other agents that read the shared .agents/skills/ path.

Is Apache Magpie only for Apache Software Foundation projects?▼

No. The framework is project-agnostic; ASF-specific behavior (release votes, CVE tooling, PMC rosters) is supplied through each adopting project's own configuration directory.
