What problem does it solve?

Triage GitHub bug reports for actionability by evaluating completeness of the reporter's details and identifying missing information to determine if a bug is actionable.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Template discovery: locate standard issue templates across repositories and fall back to a provided reference when templates are missing.
  • Issue evaluation: assess clarity, reproduction steps, and impact to determine readiness for triage.
  • Feedback generation: provide concrete guidance on missing details and next steps to reporters.
  • Use Case: when you receive a noisy bug report, run the triage workflow to decide if it's actionable or requires more information.

Quick Start

Begin by feeding a GitHub issue and let the triage workflow assess actionability and missing details.
