FAQPage Schema

How do I prioritize GitHub issues based on strategic goals?▼

You can prioritize GitHub issues against a strategic goals matrix to assign P0, P1, or P2 priority levels. This process cross-references your open issues with defined goals to compute priority scores and identify consolidation opportunities for your repository.

Can I automatically group related GitHub issues for project board consolidation?▼

Yes, triaging GitHub issues against strategic goals identifies consolidation candidates by grouping related issues together. This surfaces opportunities to consolidate work directly within your GitHub Project board, streamlining your development pipeline.

How do I set up strategic goals for GitHub issue triage?▼

You need to define your strategic goals matrix within a goals.json file located at the .claude/skills/triage/goals.json path. The triage process loads this configuration to cross-reference issues and calculate priority scores.

Does GitHub issue triage require a project board to function?▼

Yes, this triage approach is applicable to projects that have an issues list, labels, and a GitHub Project board. It uses the gh command to fetch issues and project items to compute scores accurately.

What is the best way to align open GitHub issues with strategic project priorities?▼

The best way to align GitHub issues with strategic priorities is to run a triage pass using a strategic goals matrix. This generates actionable recommendations for prioritizing and re-prioritizing work based on how well issues match your goals.

Why should I use a strategic goals matrix instead of manual issue prioritization?▼

Using a strategic goals matrix for issue prioritization replaces manual sorting with computed scores based on goal alignment. It systematically assigns P0/P1/P2 priorities and surfaces consolidation opportunities that manual review might miss.
