Ships the canonical label set and the classifier that labels newly-filed issues.

Additive only — never removes a label, never overrides a human's classification, silent when unsure, 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 none.

See docs/LABELS.adoc in hyperpolymath/.git-private-farm.

📝 Walkthrough

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features
    • Added automated issue classification based on titles, keywords and existing labels.
    • New and reopened issues can receive appropriate labels automatically, with manual dispatch available.
    • Introduced a standardised label taxonomy covering type, area, priority, status, metadata and scope.
  • Chores
    • Added scheduled label synchronisation to create missing labels and update non-protected label details.
    • Protected labels are preserved during automated synchronisation.

Walkthrough

Added a label taxonomy, a jq issue classifier, and two GitHub Actions workflows. The workflows synchronise labels and apply classifier results to newly opened, reopened, or manually selected issues.

Changes

Issue labelling automation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Label taxonomy and classification rules
.github/labels.json, .github/label-classifier.json
Defines six label tiers. Adds title-prefix, bracket-tag, keyword, tier-limit, frozen-label, and precedence rules.
Issue title classification
.github/scripts/classify-issue.jq
Normalises titles, parses prefixes and bracket tags, matches keywords, enforces tier limits, and excludes existing labels.
Label synchronisation
.github/workflows/labels.yml
Synchronises labels from JSON. It preserves frozen labels and reports mutation results.
Issue triage workflow
.github/workflows/label-triage.yml
Classifies issue titles and applies defined labels through the GitHub API without checkout actions.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~60 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to b8347

Automatic labeling can add conflicting classifications when existing-label reads fail or labels change during processing, and concurrent label synchronization can report failure despite successful updates. These bounded correctness and reliability risks should be fixed or explicitly accepted before merging.

Pull Request Overview

This PR implements a canonical label taxonomy and automated triage system using a JQ-based engine. According to Codacy analysis, the code is 'Up to Standards' with a Grade A rating.

A primary concern is the case-sensitivity in the label synchronization logic; since GitHub labels are case-insensitive, the current comparison will fail to identify existing labels with different casing, leading to duplicate creation attempts and workflow failures. Furthermore, while the implementation aims for an additive-only, 'silent when unsure' approach, the complex regex and precedence logic in classify-issue.jq currently lack unit tests to verify these constraints.

Several acceptance criteria, specifically the prevention of human-label overrides and the skipping of 'frozen' labels, are present in the logic but require validation through the recommended test scenarios.

About this PR

  • The actions.lock file mentioned in the PR description is not included in the changes. Please ensure this file is committed to maintain the expected security posture regarding action versions.

Test suggestions

  • Classifier correctly assigns 'enhancement' for titles starting with 'feat:' prefix
  • Classifier correctly assigns 'scope:estate' for titles starting with '[estate]' bracket tag
  • Classifier returns empty result if the issue already has a human-applied 'type' label to prevent overrides
  • Label sync workflow updates existing label color when it differs from labels.json canonical value
  • Label sync workflow skips modification for labels defined in the 'frozen' array
Prompt proposal for missing tests
Consider implementing these tests if applicable:
1. Classifier correctly assigns 'enhancement' for titles starting with 'feat:' prefix
2. Classifier correctly assigns 'scope:estate' for titles starting with '[estate]' bracket tag
3. Classifier returns empty result if the issue already has a human-applied 'type' label to prevent overrides
4. Label sync workflow updates existing label color when it differs from labels.json canonical value
5. Label sync workflow skips modification for labels defined in the 'frozen' array
Low confidence findings
  • The label synchronization workflow relies on awk -F'\t'. Ensure that label descriptions in labels.json do not contain literal tab characters, as this will break the metadata parsing during synchronization.

🟡 MEDIUM RISK

Use a case-insensitive comparison in awk to ensure that existing labels with different casing are correctly identified for updates instead of being treated as missing.

Comment thread .github/workflows/label-triage.yml
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.

Revalidate labels before the additive write.

The workflow reads HAVE, performs local classification, and then applies ADD. If a human adds a max-1-tier label during this interval, ADD still reflects the old snapshot and gh issue edit adds a conflicting label.

Serialise triage runs per issue and perform a final successful label read immediately before constructing edit_args. Drop suggestions whose tiers are occupied by the current labels. If an absolute guarantee is required, use a conditional update mechanism.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟠 Major | ⚡ Quick win

Stop when the existing-label read fails.

|| HAVE='[]' converts an API failure into “the issue has no labels”. The classifier can then add a conflicting max-1-tier label despite an existing human classification. This violates the additive-only and silent-on-uncertainty contract.

Exit before classification when this query fails. Use [] only after a successful empty response.

Proposed fix
-          HAVE=$(gh issue view "$NUM" -R "$GITHUB_REPOSITORY" \
-                   --json labels --jq '[.labels[].name]' 2>/dev/null) || HAVE='[]'

Serialise label mutations.

Two runs can read the same existing snapshot before either creates a missing label. One run can then fail every gh label create call and exit 1 at lines 101-104, although the other run applied the labels. Add a repository-scoped concurrency group that queues runs.

Proposed fix

   sync:
+    concurrency:
+      group: labels-${{ github.repository }}
