From 29cfe67bc59b8ebdc99c09f24303d20f30752c7b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Charan Jagwani Date: Thu, 14 May 2026 09:25:34 -0700 Subject: [PATCH 1/2] feat(skills): add nemoclaw-maintainer-fresh-issue-triage skill Automates first-touch triage for net-new issues filed in the last 24-48h. Detects ISSUE_TEMPLATE (bug_report / feature_request / doc_issue) and applies template-specific rules. CODEOWNERS path- match drives area-labels and assignee suggestion; severity keywords drive priority. Drafts a needs-info comment when a bug_report has empty Reproduction Steps. Flags possible-duplicates.

Reads the issue body, detects which ISSUE_TEMPLATE was used (bug_report / feature_request / doc_issue), matches paths against CODEOWNERS to suggest area-labels and assignee, applies severity-keyword heuristics for priority, drafts a "needs-info" comment when a bug_report's Reproduction Steps section is empty, flags possible-duplicates.

Local-only. +--- + +# Fresh Issue Triage + +When an issue is filed, somebody needs to touch it within 24-48h: apply the right area-labels, ask for repro if it's missing, propose a priority, suggest an assignee, mark it `status: triage` → `status: ready` if everything's in order. This is the highest-frequency-lowest-automation maintainer action in the daily flow. + +This skill handles all of that as a draft pass — surfaces a per-issue triage proposal, the maintainer confirms or edits, then the skill applies the agreed actions (label, assignee, comment). + +## Why this matters + +In the 2026-05 maintainer workflow, fresh issues sat in `status: triage` for a median of 2-3 days before someone touched them. That delay compounds: reporters lose context, duplicate issues pile up, and the queue's "true open" count is overstated by stale-untriaged tickets. A 5-minute structured triage pass per issue beats a 30-minute deep-dive a week later. + +The skill is **judgment-augmenting**, not judgment-replacing — every suggestion is a draft the maintainer approves. + +## Invocation + +```text +/nemoclaw-maintainer-fresh-issue-triage +``` + +Flags: + +| Flag | Default | Meaning | +|------|---------|---------| +| `--since` | `48h` | Time window: `24h`, `48h`, `7d`, or an ISO date | +| `--top N` | `20` | Maximum candidates to surface | +| `--apply` | `off` | If on, apply confirmed actions automatically (default off — drafts only) | +| `--include-untouched-only` | `on` | Skip issues that already have non-`triage` labels (someone else triaged them) | +| `--require-repro-for-bug` | `on` | If a `bug` issue has empty Reproduction Steps, draft a needs-info comment | + +## Workflow + +1. **Fetch fresh issues.** + + ```bash + gh issue list --repo NVIDIA/NemoClaw --state open \ + --search "created:>=$(date -v-48H +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S 2>/dev/null || date -d '48 hours ago' +%Y-%m-%dT%H:%M:%S)" \ + --json number,title,body,labels,author,createdAt,comments + ``` + +2. **Skip if already triaged.** If `--include-untouched-only on`, skip any issue whose labels don't include `status: triage` OR whose labels are non-empty beyond `bug` / `enhancement` / `documentation`. + +3. **Detect issue template.** Match the issue's labels against `.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/*.yml` `labels:` field to identify which template was used: + - `bug_report` → expect Description + Reproduction Steps + Environment + Debug Output + Logs sections + - `feature_request` → expect Problem Statement + Proposed Design + Category sections + - `doc_issue` → expect Description + Affected Page + Issue Type sections + - Unknown → free-form; treat as bug-shaped by default + +4. **Per-issue triage proposal** — produce a structured suggestion: + + **a.

Priority (severity keyword heuristic).** + - Body or title contains `crash`, `segfault`, `data loss`, `silent failure`, `production` → suggest `priority: high`. + - Body contains `nice to have`, `would be nice`, `low priority` → suggest `priority: low`. + - Default → `priority: medium`. + - For `feature_request` issues → no priority suggestion (those go through scope review separately). + + **c. Assignee (CODEOWNERS team membership).** + - For the resolved team, suggest the team handle (e.g. `@NVIDIA/nemoclaw-engineer`) as the area-owner. Do NOT pick an individual unless the maintainer explicitly asks — team handles auto-distribute via GitHub's round-robin. + + **d.
