What Triage does

Triage moves issues and external pull requests through category and state labels, verifies claims, and writes agent-ready briefs. It is used when a maintainer wants to sort, confirm, or route incoming work.

Triage is cataloged under Automation on DirSkills. Triage comes from a repository tagged agent-skills, ai-agents, claude-code, codex and coding-agents.

Documentation

README

Excerpt

Triage

Move issues on the project issue tracker through a small state machine of triage roles.

If this repo treats external pull requests as a request surface (see the issue-tracker config), triage covers them too: a PR is an issue with attached code — same roles, same states, same machine, with a few deltas marked "for a PR" below. Resolve a bare #42 to an issue or PR per the tracker config.

Every comment or issue posted to the issue tracker during triage must start with this disclaimer:

> *This was generated by AI during triage.*
