FAQPage Schema
How do I prioritize issues across GitHub, GitLab, and Linear?

Cross-platform issue prioritization works by fetching open issues from GitHub, GitLab, and Linear into a unified dataset, then scoring them on impact, urgency, readiness, and risk to generate a ranked report. This provides a clear list of priorities without mutating the original issues.

How does scoring open issues by impact and urgency work?

Issue scoring evaluates each open ticket against heuristics for impact, urgency, readiness, and risk. The system then applies tiebreakers and optional project-context validation to produce a ranked list, ensuring high-priority items are surfaced for stakeholder review.

Can I use issue prioritization for automated workflows without modifying tickets?

Yes, issue prioritization operates in read-only mode to fetch and analyze tickets without modifying them. This makes the generated prioritization report safe for automated workflows and continuous integration pipelines that require non-destructive analysis.

What is the best way to rank development issues using readiness and risk?

Ranking issues by readiness and risk involves fetching open tickets and applying heuristic scoring to evaluate their deployment readiness against potential risks. The process outputs a formatted prioritization report with top recommendations to guide development actions.

Does issue prioritization support validating ranked issues against codebase references?

Yes, after fetching and scoring issues, the prioritization process offers optional validation against codebase references. This refines the top candidates by checking project context, ensuring the final ranked report accurately reflects actual development readiness.
