pm-triage

pm-triage is a skill for Claude Code from pmatos/skills. It costs 121 tokens per session (3,692 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

An interactive workflow for deciding what to do with project issues that are blocked because a human decision is still needed.

In plain words
What is it for?
It is for reviewing flagged issues one at a time, identifying stale or resolved items, and documenting decisions that unblock implementation.
Why use it?
It helps clear stalled issues by checking their current status and recording each decision directly on the project tracker.

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

pm-triage scanned grade A with 0 findings 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 1mo 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.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

pm-triage — Decision Session for Blocked Issues

Some issues aren't blocked on code — they're blocked on a decision only a human with technical vision and product context can make. This skill runs a per-project decision session over exactly those issues: it gathers every open issue flagged needs-triage, human-needed, or sym:human-needed (the label symphonika inserts on personal projects), works out which of them are stale or already resolved, and walks the rest past the user one at a time so each decision unblocks implementation immediately.

Scope is one project per run. Pass owner/repo to target a repository other than the current one; with no argument, infer the repo from the current git remote.

Why no local state file

Every decision is written back to GitHub itself — a comment recording the decision and a label removal — so the label is the queue. The next /pm-triage run re-queries open issues carrying the target labels and naturally picks up wherever the last session left off, including a session that ended early. Nothing needs to be tracked locally, and nothing can drift out of sync with what actually happened on the issue.

Arguments

  • owner/repo — triage this repository instead of the current one.
  • --labels a,b,c — use exactly this label set instead of the default needs-triage, human-needed, sym:human-needed. Replaces the default entirely; include all the labels you want considered.

Workflow

1. Resolve the repo and the label set

Determine the repo: the owner/repo argument if given, otherwise gh repo view --json nameWithOwner -q .nameWithOwner. Bail with a clear message if neither works (not a git repo, no gh auth, or gh unavailable — this skill is gh-only; it never uses a GitHub MCP server, since it targets arbitrary owner/repo values that may not be the current project).

Determine the label set: --labels if given, otherwise the three defaults. Check which of them actually exist in the repo with gh label list --repo <repo> --json name --limit 1000 -q '.[].name' — --limit defaults to 30, and a repo with more labels than that would otherwise make a real target label look absent. Keep only the labels that exist.

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.
