Repo-specific triage guidance. An agent skill from Terry-Mao/AICodingFlow.

  • Tasks that involve Issue triage
  • SKILL.md covers Heuristics, Label taxonomy, Recurring follow-up patterns and Self-Evolution Boundary
  • Instructions only: no scripts, shell commands, URLs or credentials in SKILL.md

What it does

Triage Issue Repo is an agent skill from Terry-Mao/AICodingFlow. Repo-specific triage guidance. Only the categories declared overridable by the core triage-issue skill may be specialized here.

Its SKILL.md is about 650 tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. It is a single SKILL.md file with no bundled scripts.

It sits in Development, covering Issue triage. The repository describes itself as: Setup a AI Coding Flow. The licence is MIT.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve Issue triage

Example prompts

  • “/triage-issue-repo”

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 7703e16. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md.

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Triage Issue Repo loads about 645 tokens when it runs. Until then it costs about 36 tokens; SKILL.md has 317 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~36
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~645

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

Repo-specific triage guidance

This file is a companion to the core triage-issue skill. It does not redefine the triage output schema, safety rules, or follow-up-question contract. It only specializes the override categories the core skill marks as overridable.

Heuristics

  • Distinguish observed symptoms from reporter hypotheses and proposed fixes.
  • Before asking any follow-up question, first try to answer it yourself through code inspection, documentation lookup, or web search. Only ask questions that you cannot resolve on your own and that only the reporter would know.
  • Ask targeted follow-up questions only for details the agent cannot derive itself and that materially improve triage confidence.
  • Prefer issue-specific questions over generic "please share more info" requests.
  • For concrete workflow, skill, documentation, or test failures/improvements that already contain enough detail for a product/spec pass, consider ready-to-spec during triage. Maintainers repeatedly added this lifecycle label on issues #251, #239, and #134 after initial triage.
  • Treat ready-to-implement as a later lifecycle label, not a default initial-triage label. Only include it during triage when the issue already has an approved or clearly complete spec/plan, or the maintainer-provided issue context explicitly says implementation is approved. Maintainers added it after spec-readiness signals on issues #239 and #134.

Label taxonomy

The label taxonomy for this repository is managed in .github/issue-triage/config.json. Prefer labels from that configuration, and avoid inventing new labels unless the prompt explicitly allows it.

Recurring follow-up patterns

No repo-specific follow-up patterns have been captured for this repository yet. Future updates may add concise, evidence-backed patterns when maintainer overrides reveal recurring follow-up needs that are actually specific to this repository.

Self-Evolution Boundary

The update-triage workflow may propose concise updates to this companion skill when repeated maintainer correction signals across independent issues reveal stable repo-specific triage guidance. Those updates must stay within the override categories allowed by the core triage-issue skill and cannot change the core triage contract, output schema, reserved label rules, safety rules, or duplicate/follow-up exclusivity.
