Repository Resolution
Infer repo from workspace in Azure/azure-sdk-for-* repos. Otherwise, ask.
Workflow
- Query —
azsdk_engsys_codeowner_viewto inspect current state. - Modify — Add/remove owners or labels.
- Verify — Re-query to confirm.
- Update cache — After all ownership changes are complete, ask the user if they want to run
azsdk_engsys_codeowner_update_cacheto propagate changes immediately. This is especially important when changes are needed to unblock PRs or releases.
New labels: azsdk_check_service_label → azsdk_create_service_label → PR merged → azsdk_engsys_codeowner_add_package_label. See data model.
Checking Package Readiness
Use azsdk_engsys_codeowner_check_package with a package directoryPath to verify a package has sufficient owners, PR labels, and service owners. This is useful to diagnose why a PR or release is blocked due to missing ownership.
Examples
