Core Features & Use Cases

  • Search and view issues efficiently to quickly locate relevant reports by text, state, labels, or assignees.
  • Triage workflows that help you label priority, assign ownership, and add informative comments, including bulk closing patterns.

Quick Start

Ask the agent to create a new issue in the current repo with a title, a structured bug template body, and the labels and assignee you specify.
