Triage
Triage a bug report end-to-end: reproduce the bug, diagnose the root cause, verify whether the behavior is intentional, and attempt a fix.
General Rules
Do not get stuck on infrastructure problems. Bail out after 2 attempts and write your report with the data you already have.
This is a GitHub Action project written in TypeScript. The codebase is small — the important files are in src/ and test/. There are no dev servers or browsers involved; bugs will be in the routing logic, GitHub API interactions, label management, or LLM prompt handling.
Input
You need either:
issueTitle and issueBody provided in args, OR
- A GitHub issue number or URL (use
gh issue view to fetch details)
If a triageDir is provided in args, use that as the working directory. Otherwise, default to triage/gh-<issue_number>.
Step 1: Reproduce
Read and follow reproduce.md. Use a subagent for this step to isolate context.
After completing reproduction, check the result:
- If the issue was skipped — skip to Output.
- If the issue was not reproducible — skip to Output.
- If the issue was reproduced — continue to Step 2.
Step 2: Diagnose
Read and follow diagnose.md. Use a subagent for this step to isolate context.
After completing diagnosis:
- If confidence is low — skip to Output.
- If confidence is medium or high — continue to Step 3.
Step 3: Verify
Read and follow verify.md. Use a subagent for this step to isolate context.
After completing verification:
- If the verdict is intended-behavior — skip to Output.
- If the verdict is bug or unclear — continue to Step 4.
Step 4: Fix
Read and follow fix.md. Use a subagent for this step to isolate context.
Whether the fix succeeds or fails, continue to Output.
Output
Return your structured results so the orchestrator can post a comment and manage labels.
