  • Unified Triage: Handles both issues and PRs in a single, automated workflow.
  • Automated Classification: Identifies issue types (Question, Bug, Feature) and PR types (Bugfix, Other).
  • Background Processing: Spawns individual background tasks for each item, allowing for parallel processing.
  • Intelligent Actions: Automatically comments on issues, confirms bugs, and merges safe bugfix PRs.
  • Use Case: When new issues and PRs are opened, this Skill automatically categorizes them, attempts to answer simple questions by searching the codebase, flags potential bugs, and merges straightforward bug fixes, providing a daily summary report.

Quick Start

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate GitHub issue and pull request triage?

Automate GitHub issue and PR triage by leveraging the gh CLI to classify items and spawn background sub-agents for parallel processing. This automatically categorizes issues, answers questions, confirms bugs, and merges safe bugfix PRs.

Can I automatically categorize GitHub issues into bugs, features, and questions?

Yes, automated triage classifies GitHub issues into Question, Bug, and Feature categories. It evaluates pull requests as Bugfix or Other, automatically commenting on issues and attempting to answer simple questions by searching the codebase.

Do I need the gh CLI to automate repository management and PR merging?

Yes, automating repository management with this approach requires the gh CLI and a background task execution environment. These dependencies are necessary to spawn parallel sub-agents for processing and aggregating individual issues and pull requests.

What is the best way to process large volumes of open GitHub issues automatically?

Processing large volumes of open GitHub issues is handled by spawning individual background tasks for each item. This enables parallel processing and result aggregation, allowing the system to assess feature requests and confirm bugs simultaneously.

Why use background sub-agents for GitHub pull request classification?

Background sub-agents enable parallel processing of multiple pull requests simultaneously. This allows the system to independently classify PR types, execute intelligent actions like merging safe bugfixes, and aggregate results into a summary without blocking operations.
