FAQPage Schema

How do I triage Linear issues for automated agent workflows?▼

Triage evaluates tracker issues to determine AFK eligibility, posting notes and applying labels to transition Linear issues toward ready-for-agent, ready-for-human, or backlog. It generates an Agent Brief when the issue is ready for automated execution.

What is an Agent Brief and when is it needed in issue triage?▼

An Agent Brief is a durable instruction set produced during triage when an issue meets AFK eligibility. It is needed to prepare tracker issues for autonomous agent execution by ensuring all required context and status transitions are complete.

How do I start triaging an issue to create an Agent Brief?▼

Invoke the triage command on an issue and describe your intent in natural language. The skill evaluates the issue, applies necessary labeling and status transitions, and drafts an Agent Brief if AFK eligibility is met.

Does triage work with GitHub Issues or only Linear trackers?▼

Triage currently works with Linear trackers configured in .afk/config.yml. GitHub Issues support is planned for future adapter expansion to maintain governance across multiple tracker backends.

What happens to issues with missing information during tracker triage?▼

Triage posts triage notes to surface blockers when information is missing. It then moves the issue toward ready-for-human or backlog status instead of generating an Agent Brief until the required context is provided.

Can I cancel issues or move them to backlog during the triage process?▼

Yes, triage applies status transitions to move issues toward backlog or cancellation as appropriate. It evaluates AFK eligibility and steers the issue through the funnel based on available information and intent.
