feat(labels): estate label tooling + auto-triage for new issues - #6
Conversation
📝 WalkthroughSummary by CodeRabbit
WalkthroughAdds a generated label taxonomy, a jq issue classifier, and two GitHub Actions workflows. The workflows classify new or reopened issues and synchronise repository labels while preserving frozen labels and existing issue labels. ChangesLabel automation
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The PR adds automatic issue labeling and label synchronization. Opted-out issues may still be modified, and label synchronization can mis-handle API failures or concurrent runs; the PR is mergeable with explicit owner awareness or follow-up on these bounded workflow risks.

Ships the canonical label set and the classifier that labels newly-filed issues. Additive only: it never removes a label, never overrides a human's classification, stays silent when unsure, and never fails an issue. Also adds this repo's two new workflows to .github/workflows/actions.lock as '[]'. That lock is keyed by workflow path and refuses any workflow it does not list -- a startup_failure, which produces no check run and is therefore silent. `gh actions-lock` cannot add these: it records action versions, and both workflows deliberately use no actions.

Honour status:do-not-automate before classification.
If the issue already has status:do-not-automate, Lines 87-115 can still add type and area labels. .github/labels.json defines this status as “Bots and sweeps must not touch this issue”. Exit after reading HAVE when that label is present.
Proposed fix
[[ -n "$HAVE" ]] || HAVE='[]'
echo "already has: $HAVE"
+ if jq -e 'index("status:do-not-automate") != null' <<<"$HAVE" >/dev/null; then

Add a concurrency group.
The workflow has three trigger sources. A push to .github/labels.json can run at the same time as the monthly schedule or a manual dispatch. Parallel runs then issue the same gh label create calls, and the loser records failed entries for labels that already exist.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Check the exit status of the existing-label listing.
set -e is not enabled, so a failed or truncated gh api --paginate call leaves existing empty or partial. Every affected label then looks missing, and the script attempts to create labels that already exist.
The guard at line 101 does not always catch this. If at least one genuinely missing label is created, created is greater than 0 and the step exits 0 while reporting failures.
Abort before the loop when the listing fails.
