NemoClaw Maintainer Morning
Start the day: triage, pick a version target, label items, share the plan.
See PR-REVIEW-PRIORITIES.md for the daily cadence and review priorities.
Step 1: Determine Target Version and Stragglers
node --experimental-strip-types --no-warnings .agents/skills/nemoclaw-maintainer-day/scripts/version-target.ts
This fetches tags, computes the next patch version, and finds open items still carrying older version labels. Surface stragglers first — the team needs to decide: relabel to today's target, or defer further.
Step 2: Triage
Run the triage script to rank the full backlog:
node --experimental-strip-types --no-warnings .agents/skills/nemoclaw-maintainer-day/scripts/triage.ts --approved-only
If too few results, run without --approved-only. The script calls gh-pr-merge-now --json, enriches candidates with risky-area detection, and applies the scoring model documented in PR-REVIEW-PRIORITIES.md.
Also use find-review-pr to surface PRs with security + priority: high labels. Merge these into the candidate pool.
Step 3: Label Version Targets
Present the ranked queue to the user. After they confirm which items to target, label them:
gh label create "<version>" --repo NVIDIA/NemoClaw --description "Release target" --color "1d76db" 2>/dev/null || true
gh pr edit <number> --repo NVIDIA/NemoClaw --add-label "<version>"
gh issue edit <number> --repo NVIDIA/NemoClaw --add-label "<version>"
Step 4: Save State and Output the Plan
Pipe triage output into state:
node --experimental-strip-types --no-warnings .agents/skills/nemoclaw-maintainer-day/scripts/triage.ts \
| node --experimental-strip-types --no-warnings .agents/skills/nemoclaw-maintainer-day/scripts/state.ts set-queue
Output the daily plan:
| Target | Item | Type | Owner | Next action |
|---|
| v0.0.8 | #1234 | PR | @author | Run merge gate |
| v0.0.8 | #1235 | Issue | unassigned | Needs PR |
Include: total items targeted, how many are PRs vs issues, how many are already merge-ready.
Notes
- This skill runs once at the start of the day. Use
/nemoclaw-maintainer-day during the day to execute.
- The target version label is the source of truth for "what we're shipping today."
- Stragglers from previous versions should be addressed first — they already slipped once.
