SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It reduces the backlog and confusion of open GitHub issues by automatically categorizing new reports, identifying likely duplicates, and closing redundant threads.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Needs-information follow-up: Posts a short, targeted request for the specific details required to reproduce or understand the issue.
  • Operational summary: Produces a concise triage report counting how many issues were closed as duplicates vs. labeled by category.
