| description | Read-only dashboard over a directory of `verdict.json` files
produced by `issue-reassess` campaigns. Surfaces a health
rating, classification distribution, partial-fix surfaces,
oldest-unresolved buckets, and per-component breakdowns.
Output is HTML by default; markdown fallback available.
Read-only on tracker state; consumes campaign artefacts.
|
| when_to_use | When a maintainer asks "what's the state of the reassessment
campaign", "give me the dashboard for the recent sweep", or
"which issues still fail across pool runs". Also as a
pre-release check on whether the EOL pool has dropped, and
as a periodic health-of-the-backlog view.

issue-reassess-stats
Read-only dashboard skill over the verdict.json artefacts
produced by issue-reassess
campaigns. Surfaces a health rating, classification distribution,
the still-fails-* action tail, partial-fix surfaces, new-issue
candidates from cross-family probes, and per-component breakdowns.
The skill is the read-only counterpart to
issue-reassess — both consume the
same on-disk artefacts. Where reassess writes verdicts (one
per candidate) and a report.md, this skill renders an at-a-
glance dashboard for the maintainer to scan.
Modelled on pr-management-stats.
Golden rules
Golden rule 1 — read-only on tracker AND on campaign
artefacts. This skill reads verdict.json files and emits HTML.
It does not modify any campaign artefact, does not post to
<issue-tracker>, does not re-invoke issue-reproducer.
Golden rule 2 — HTML by default. The dashboard is designed for
the "what should I do today" glance. Markdown and tables-only
fallbacks are available for terminal pipelines (--markdown,
--tables-only).
Golden rule 3 — surface action candidates first. The dashboard
opens with the still-failing-bug count and the new-issue
candidates from probes — these are where work happens. The bulk
fixed-on-master / cannot-run-* counts come second.
Golden rule 4 — fresh read on every invocation. The dashboard
re-reads verdict.json files on every run; no in-memory caching.
This makes the dashboard a coherent snapshot of the campaign
state at the moment of invocation.
Golden rule 5 — multi-campaign reads are explicit. When the
user points the skill at a directory that contains multiple
campaign subdirectories, it asks which one — never silently
aggregates across campaigns.
Adopter overrides
Before running the default behaviour documented below, this skill
consults
.apache-magpie-local/issue-reassess-stats.md (personal, gitignored) and .apache-magpie-overrides/issue-reassess-stats.md (committed, project-wide)
in the adopter repo if it exists, and applies any agent-readable
overrides it finds. See
docs/setup/agentic-overrides.md
for the contract.
Hard rule: agents NEVER modify the snapshot under
<adopter-repo>/.apache-magpie/. Local modifications go in the
override file.
Snapshot drift
Also at the top of every run, this skill compares the gitignored
.apache-magpie.local.lock (per-machine fetch) against the
committed .apache-magpie.lock (the project pin). On mismatch
the skill surfaces the gap and proposes
/magpie-setup upgrade.
Prerequisites
- A campaign directory exists at the path the user supplies (or
the project's default per
<project-config>/reproducer-conventions.md).
- That directory contains
<KEY>/verdict.json files for the
campaign's candidates (at least one).
No tracker access required — the skill operates entirely on
on-disk artefacts.
Inputs
| Selector | Resolves to |
|---|
stats <campaign-dir> (default) | path to a campaign directory |
--markdown | emit markdown instead of HTML |
--tables-only | emit terminal-rendered tables only (no hero cards, no recommendations) |
--output <file> | write to a file instead of stdout |
--component <name> | filter the dashboard to one component |
The default output is HTML to stdout; the user pipes it to a file
or opens it directly.
Step 0 — Pre-flight
- Campaign directory exists at the supplied path.
- At least one
verdict.json present under the directory.
- Override consultation — see Adopter overrides above.
- Drift check — see Snapshot drift above.
If the directory has multiple campaign subdirs (e.g., the user
pointed at <scratch>/), prompt which to use.
Step 1 — Fetch the verdicts
Read every verdict.json under the campaign directory. Parse and
schema-validate each per
issue-reproducer/verdict-composition.md.
Skip and report any file that fails to parse; do not aggregate
partial data.
Full details: fetch.md.
Step 2 — Classify
Bucket each verdict by classification (10 labels) and orthogonally
by nature (5 labels). Detect multi-case partial fixes from the
cases array. Cross-tabulate classification × nature.
Full details: classify.md.
Step 3 — Aggregate
Compute the dashboard's payload:
- Total candidates, breakdown by classification and nature.
- Health rating (Healthy / Needs attention / Action needed) per
the project's thresholds.
- Action candidates (still-failing tail).
- Closure candidates (fixed-on-master with strong evidence).
- New-issue candidates (probe findings).
- Per-component breakdown.
Full details: aggregate.md.
Step 4 — Render
Emit the dashboard. Default is HTML with inline CSS (single self-
contained file); markdown and tables-only fallbacks honour the
--markdown and --tables-only flags.
Full details: render.md.
Step 5 — Output
Write to stdout (default), to a file if --output was passed, or
present in the agent's response if the user invoked the skill
interactively.
The HTML output is self-contained — no external CSS, no JS, no
images. A maintainer opens it in any browser without setup.
Step 6 — Hand-back
Surface to the user:
- The path to the rendered output (if file mode).
- Headline numbers (count of still-failing, count of new-issue
candidates).
- Recommended next actions:
- For each still-failing candidate:
/magpie-issue-fix-workflow <KEY>.
- For each closure candidate: a manual close via the tracker.
- For each new-issue candidate: a manual file via the tracker.
The skill never executes any of these next actions — it only
recommends.
Hard rules
- Never modify campaign artefacts. Read-only on the campaign
directory; no re-running
issue-reproducer, no rewriting
verdict.json.
- Never post to
<issue-tracker> — the dashboard is a local
view; tracker writes go through other skills.
- Never aggregate across campaigns without an explicit user
prompt. Each campaign's verdicts are scoped to one
<campaign-id>.
- Never invent counts. If a
verdict.json failed to parse,
it's surfaced as a parse error, not counted in the totals.
Failure modes
| Symptom | Likely cause | Remediation |
|---|
Campaign directory contains no verdict.json files | Campaign hasn't run yet, or paths are wrong | Invoke issue-reassess to populate, or correct the path |
verdict.json parse error on N files | Schema drift, manual edits, or interrupted campaign run | Surface the failing paths; do not aggregate partial data |
All verdicts classified cannot-run-* | Pool was shape-D / shape-H heavy, or runtime is broken | Surface in the dashboard's "limitations" section |
| Health rating threshold seems wrong for this project | Project's defaults don't match its scale | Override via .apache-magpie-overrides/issue-reassess-stats.md |
| Age bands don't match the project's pace | "Recent" is project-relative; defaults assume a moderately active project | Override the band edges via .apache-magpie-overrides/issue-reassess-stats.md |
