Ln 911 Github Triager

Paths: File paths (shared/, references/, ../ln-*) are relative to skills repo root. If not found at CWD, locate this SKILL.md directory and go up one level for repo root. If shared/ is missing, fetch files via WebFetch from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/levnikolaevich/claude-code-skills/master/skills/{path}.

ln-911-github-triager

Type: L3 Worker (standalone) Category: 9XX Community Engagement Invocation: Standalone or as part of a broader community triage workflow

Scans all open issues, PRs, and discussions in the current repository. Categorizes by urgency. Produces an actionable triage report.

Arguments

$ARGUMENTS controls scope and staleness threshold:

Parse $ARGUMENTS: extract scope tokens (issues, prs, discussions), numeric threshold, and summary flag. If no scope tokens, scan all three. If no number, default to 7 days.

Phase 0: GitHub Discovery

MANDATORY READ: Load shared/references/community_github_discovery.md

Execute the discovery protocol. Extract:

• {owner}/{repo} for --repo flag and URLs
• maintainer login (authenticated user) for maintainer detection
• Verify gh is authenticated

Load strategy: check docs/community_engagement_strategy.md in target project, fallback to shared/references/community_strategy_template.md. Extract Section 5 (Engagement Metrics) for targets and red flags.

Phase 1: Fetch Data

Run these gh commands based on scope. Execute all applicable fetches in parallel.

1a. Issues

gh issue list --repo {owner}/{repo} --state open --limit 100 --json number,title,labels,createdAt,updatedAt,author,comments,assignees

1b. Pull Requests

gh pr list --repo {owner}/{repo} --state open --limit 100 --json number,title,labels,createdAt,updatedAt,author,reviewDecision,reviewRequests,isDraft,comments,assignees

1c. Discussions (GraphQL)

gh api graphql -f query='
  query($owner: String!, $name: String!) {
    repository(owner: $owner, name: $name) {
      discussions(first: 100, states: OPEN) {
        nodes {
          number
          title
          category { name }
          createdAt
          updatedAt
          author { login }
          answerChosenAt
          labels(first: 5) { nodes { name } }
          comments(first: 20) {
            totalCount
            nodes {
              author { login }
              createdAt
            }
          }
        }
      }
    }
  }
' -f owner="{owner}" -f name="{repo}"

Gate: If all sources return zero items, report "No open items. Triage complete." and stop.

Phase 2: Classify Each Item

For every fetched item, evaluate these conditions. An item can match multiple -- use highest priority.

Priority Matrix

Maintainer Detection

The maintainer login comes from Phase 0 discovery (viewer.login). An item "has maintainer reply" if any comment's author.login equals the maintainer login.

For issues: check comments array authors. For discussions: check comments.nodes[].author.login.

Staleness Calculation

Days since last activity: (today - updatedAt) in days. Compare against threshold (default 7, or from $ARGUMENTS).

Label Urgency Signals

Labels that elevate priority: bug, breaking, security, urgent.

Labels that signal engagement opportunity (not urgency): help wanted, good first issue.

Phase 3: Engagement Metrics

Calculate aggregate metrics per strategy Section 5:

Phase 4: Preview Table

If $ARGUMENTS contains summary → skip this phase entirely. Output compact summary (red flags, priority counts per category, health metrics table) and stop. Do NOT compose the full Phase 5 report.

Otherwise (standalone mode): present a compact summary table of ALL classified items for user review. Wait for user approval before proceeding to Phase 5.

### Triage Preview -- {total count} items found

| # | Type | Title | Priority | Age | Key Signal |
|---|------|-------|----------|-----|------------|
| {number} | {Issue/PR/Discussion} | {title (truncated to 50 chars)} | {P0/P1/P2/P3/P4} | {days}d | {short reason} |

Sort by priority (P0 first), then by age (oldest first) within each priority group.

After presenting, ask the user:

• Confirm priorities look correct
• Whether to exclude any items from the full report
• Whether to adjust the staleness threshold

Proceed to Phase 5 only after user confirms.

Phase 5: Compose Report

Present the full triage report in this format:

## GitHub Triage Report -- {YYYY-MM-DD}

**Scope:** {issues/PRs/discussions or "all"} | **Threshold:** {N} days | **Open items:** {total count}

Red Flag Alerts

If any red flags from Phase 3 are triggered, add BEFORE Health Metrics:

> [!WARNING]
> **Red flags detected:**
> - {description, e.g., "2 unanswered discussions older than 7 days"}

Health Metrics Table

| Metric | Value | Target | Status |
|--------|-------|--------|--------|
| Unanswered (>{N}d) | {count} | 0 | {OK / RED FLAG} |
| Avg first response | {hours}h | <24h | {OK / RED FLAG} |
| Community:maintainer ratio | {ratio} | >0.3 | {OK / RED FLAG} |
| New discussions (30d) | {count} | >2 | {OK / RED FLAG} |
| Zero-engagement items | {count} | -- | {count} |

Priority Tables

For each priority P0..P3, show header with count. If count is 0, show header (0) and skip table.

P0 Critical:

P1 Urgent:

P2 Stale:

P3 Monitor:

P4 Info: Do NOT list individually -- only include in total count.

Recommended Actions

### Recommended Actions

1. **Respond:** {items needing maintainer reply, with GitHub URLs}
2. **Review:** {PRs needing review, with GitHub URLs}
3. **Close or bump:** {stale items -- suggest close if resolved, bump if relevant}
4. **Engage:** {items that could benefit from community call-to-action}

Formatting Rules

• Sort items within each priority group by age (oldest first)
• URL format: https://github.com/{owner}/{repo}/{issues|discussions|pull}/{number}
• Dates in YYYY-MM-DD, ages in days
• All items in Recommended Actions must have direct GitHub URLs

Rules

• Read-only: this skill fetches and reports -- never create, modify, or close any GitHub item
• No publishing: do not create issues, comments, labels, or any other GitHub state change
• Maintainer login: from Phase 0 discovery (authenticated user)
• Default threshold: 7 days (per strategy Section 5)
• Rate limits: if GraphQL rate limit hit, report partial results with a warning

Definition of Done

• GitHub data fetched for all scoped item types (issues/PRs/discussions)
• Every item classified by priority (P0-P4)
• Engagement metrics calculated per strategy targets
• Report composed (full interactive report OR compact summary for coordinator)
