FAQPage Schema
How do I automate GitHub issue triage and PR fixes?▼

You can automate GitHub issue triage by using a command to fetch filtered issues and spawn parallel sub-agents that implement fixes and open PRs. Invoke it with owner/repo and optional flags for labels or milestones.

How does sub-agent orchestration work for GitHub issues?▼

Sub-agent orchestration works by spawning parallel agents to generate code changes, create branches, and open PRs for fetched GitHub issues. It tracks progress and monitors PR review comments to trigger follow-up actions or additional fixes as needed.

Do I need a GitHub token to automate issue fixes and open PRs?▼

Yes, you need a required GH_TOKEN to automate opening PRs from GitHub issues. The automation uses the GitHub REST API via curl, performing pre-flight checks with this token to authenticate and manage repository workflows.

Can I filter GitHub issues by labels, milestones, and assignees during triage?▼

Yes, you can filter GitHub issues by labels, milestones, and assignees during triage. The orchestration retrieves issues based on these filters and supports fork workflows to generate code changes and open PRs in parallel.

Does GitHub issue automation support fork workflows and cron polling?▼

Yes, GitHub issue automation supports fork workflows and cron-based polling. The cron polling is used to monitor PR reviews, ensuring that follow-up actions or additional fixes are triggered when review comments are detected.

What are the limitations of automating PR fixes with sub-agents?▼

Automating PR fixes with sub-agents requires a GH_TOKEN and uses curl for GitHub REST API calls, meaning it is limited by API rate limits and token permissions. It relies on pre-flight checks and optional model or notify-channel parameters for execution.
