SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill standardizes and accelerates how issues are triaged by transforming discussions into durable, actionable agent briefs, reducing ambiguity and enabling consistent follow-through.

Core Features & Use Cases

Detects and manages canonical triage states (needs-triage, needs-info, ready-for-agent, ready-for-human, wontfix) and ensures consistent labeling across trackers.
Integrates with major trackers (GitHub, GitLab) and provides a local fallback mode, surfacing relevant context from the knowledge base when available.
Generates a durable AGENT-BRIEF.md when an issue is ready for an AFK agent, while referencing CONTEXT/ADR guidance and OUT-OF-SCOPE notes as appropriate.

Quick Start

Invoke /triage on an issue to start the triage workflow and generate an agent brief when ready.

FAQPage Schema

How do I automate issue triage for GitHub and GitLab trackers?▼

Automating issue triage standardizes tracker discussions into structured agent briefs, managing canonical states like needs-triage and ready-for-agent across GitHub and GitLab to enable consistent follow-through.

What is an agent brief and when is it generated during issue triage?▼

An agent brief is a durable AGENT-BRIEF.md document generated during issue triage when a tracker state reaches ready-for-agent, transforming discussions into actionable context for AFK agents.

How do I standardize triage states across multiple issue trackers?▼

Standardizing triage states involves enforcing a canonical category and state taxonomy across GitHub and GitLab, ensuring consistent labels like needs-info, ready-for-human, and wontfix are applied.

Does issue triage work without connecting a GitHub or GitLab tracker?▼

Issue triage provides a local fallback mode when GitHub or GitLab trackers are unavailable, still processing discussions and surfacing relevant context from the local knowledge base.

How are out-of-scope issues handled during AI-assisted triage?▼

Out-of-scope issues are managed by referencing OUT-OF-SCOPE.md notes during triage, ensuring the AI recognizes boundaries and applies the wontfix state appropriately to invalid requests.
