triage

Invoke the triage workflow in natural language, such as asking what needs attention or naming a specific issue number. The assistant reads the full issue, recommends a category and state, and applies labels, comments, or closures after your confirmation.

An agent brief is a structured issue comment that serves as the authoritative spec for an autonomous coding agent. It describes current and desired behavior, key interfaces, testable acceptance criteria, and explicit out-of-scope boundaries, avoiding file paths and line numbers that go stale.

Rejected enhancements are recorded as concept files in an .out-of-scope/ directory with the decision, reasoning, and links to prior requests. During triage, new issues are matched against these files by concept similarity so prior rejections can be surfaced instead of re-litigated.

Yes, a quick state override lets you command a direct transition such as moving an issue to ready-for-agent. The assistant confirms the role changes, comments, and closures before acting, and asks whether you want an agent brief written.

The assistant attempts reproduction from the reporter's steps first. If detail is insufficient, the issue moves to needs-info with triage notes listing what was established and specific actionable questions for the reporter, so prior progress is never lost.
