Slash command
Portable /topissues is defined in commands/topissues.md. Run the script and paste stdout verbatim โ do not invent or adjust scores.
RICE scores
Scores are read only from the project custom field RICE Score on the org project board. Issues must be on that project and scored by the prioritize agent; issue comments are not used.
The top backlog pool excludes issues with open blockers (GitHub blockedBy links โ e.g. #470 blocked by open #788). Assigned issues in the mine pool are not filtered by blocker status.
