issue-triage

issue-triage is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from brain-bootstrap/claude-code-brain-bootstrap. It costs 0 tokens per session (2,952 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A tool for reviewing a repository’s open GitHub issues, which are reports of bugs, requests, or tasks. It groups issues, looks for duplicates, connects them to pull requests, and assesses risk.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to audit all open issues or selected issue numbers, analyze them in depth, and prepare or post comments after validation.
Why use it?
It reduces the manual work of sorting a crowded issue list and helps identify which items need attention.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

issue-triage scanned grade A with 1 finding against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 3d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 370 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Issue Triage

Workflow in 3 phases: automatic audit → opt-in deep analysis → actions with mandatory user validation.

When to Use

Skill Usage Output
/issue-triage Triage, analyze, and comment on issues Action tables + deep analysis + posted comments
/repo-recap General recap to share with the team Markdown summary (PRs + issues + releases)

Triggers:

  • Manually: /issue-triage or /issue-triage all or /issue-triage 42 57
  • Proactively: when >10 open issues without triage, or issue stale >30d detected

Language

  • Check the argument passed to this skill
  • If fr or french → output tables and summary in French
  • If en, english, or no argument → English (default)
  • Note: GitHub comments (Phase 3) are ALWAYS in English (international audience)

Preconditions

git rev-parse --is-inside-work-tree
gh auth status

If either fails, stop and explain what's missing.


Phase 1 — Audit (always executed)

Data Gathering (parallel commands)

# Repo identity
gh repo view --json nameWithOwner -q .nameWithOwner

# Open issues with full metadata
gh issue list --state open --limit 100 \
  --json number,title,author,createdAt,updatedAt,labels,assignees,body,comments

# Open PRs (for cross-reference)
gh pr list --state open --limit 50 --json number,title,body

# Recently closed issues (for duplicate detection)
gh issue list --state closed --limit 20 \
  --json number,title,labels,closedAt

# Collaborators (to protect maintainer issues)
gh api "repos/{owner}/{repo}/collaborators" --jq '.[].login'

Collaborators fallback — if gh api .../collaborators fails (403/404):

gh pr list --state merged --limit 10 --json author --jq '.[].author.login' | sort -u

If still ambiguous, ask the user via AskUserQuestion.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
