triage
Triage issues through a state machine driven by triage roles. Use when user wants to create an issue, triage issues, review incoming bugs or feature requests, prepare issues for an AFK agent, or manage issue workflow.
npx skills add stevesolun/ctx --skill triage --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Triage Move issues on the project issue tracker through a small state machine of triage roles. Every comment or issue posted to the issue tracker during triage **must** start with this disclaimer: ``` > *This was generated by AI during triage.* ``` ## Reference docs - [AGENT-BRIEF.md](AGENT-BRIEF.md) — how to write durable agent briefs - [OUT-OF-SCOPE.md](OUT-OF-SCOPE.md) — how the `.out-of-scope/` knowledge base works ## Roles Two **category** roles: - `bug` — something is broken - `enhancement` — new feature or improvement Five **state** roles: - `needs-triage` — maintainer needs to evaluate - `needs-info` — waiting on reporter for more information - `ready-for-agent` — fully specified, ready for an AFK agent - `ready-for-human` — needs human implementation - `wontfix` — will not be actioned Every triaged issue should carry exactly one category role and one state role. If state roles conflict, flag it and ask the maintainer before doing anything else. These are canonical role names — the actual label strings used in the issue tracker may differ. The mapping should have been provided to you - run `/setup-matt-pocock-skills` if not. State transitions: an unlabeled issue normally

What does the triage skill do?
Triage issues through a state machine driven by triage roles. Use when user wants to create an issue, triage issues, review incoming bugs or feature requests, prepare issues for an AFK agent, or manage issue workflow.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add stevesolun/ctx --skill triage --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From stevesolun/ctx, a repository with 569 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
