Skill: Check DEP Status

Purpose

List DEP issues with their current status, area, PIC, and approval state. Find related DEPs for a given topic or component.

When to Use

When the user wants to see the status of one or more DEPs, check what's pending review, find DEPs related to a component, or get a triage summary.

Workflow

1. List open DEP issues:

gh issue list --repo ai-dynamo/dynamo \
  --search 'label:"dep:draft","dep:under-review","dep:approved","dep:implementing"' \
  --json number,title,labels,assignees,createdAt,updatedAt

2. Filter by area (if requested):

gh issue list --repo ai-dynamo/dynamo \
  --label "<area>" \
  --json number,title,labels,assignees

3. Filter by status (if requested):

gh issue list --repo ai-dynamo/dynamo \
  --label "dep:<status>" \
  --json number,title,labels,assignees

4. Format as a summary table:

| # | Title | Status | Area | PIC | Updated |
|---|-------|--------|------|-----|---------|
| 42 | DEP: KV router scheduling | dep:under-review | router | @pic | 2026-03-28 |

5. Find related DEPs by searching issue titles and bodies:

gh issue list --repo ai-dynamo/dynamo \
  --search 'DEP <keyword> label:"dep:draft","dep:under-review","dep:approved","dep:implementing","dep:done"' \
  --json number,title,labels,state

6. Include closed DEPs if requested:

gh issue list --repo ai-dynamo/dynamo \
  --state closed \
  --search 'label:"dep:done","dep:deferred","dep:rejected","dep:replaced"' \
  --json number,title,labels,assignees,closedAt

Notes

• For a full triage view, include both open and recently closed DEPs.
• Cross-reference with dep:lightweight label to distinguish full vs. lightweight DEPs.
• Area labels are bare names (e.g., frontend, router) — no prefix.
