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.

Review Change Stack

📝 Walkthrough

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • New Features

    • Added automatic labelling for newly opened or reopened issues based on their titles and repository-defined taxonomy.
    • Added scheduled and manually triggered label synchronisation, including creation of missing labels and updates to label details.
    • Preserved designated labels from automated changes.
    • Added support for categorising issues by type, area, priority, status, metadata and scope.
  • Bug Fixes

    • Added safeguards so labelling completes safely when configuration, matching labels or confident classifications are unavailable.

Walkthrough

The change adds a generated label taxonomy, a jq issue classifier, an issue-triage workflow, and a label-synchronisation workflow. The workflows retrieve repository configuration, apply canonical labels, preserve frozen labels, and continue successfully when classification or synchronisation cannot proceed.

Changes

Label automation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Label taxonomy and classifier inputs
.github/label-classifier.json, .github/labels.json
Defines label metadata, classification rules, keyword and signal mappings, tier limits, precedence, valid types, and frozen labels.
Issue classification pipeline
.github/scripts/classify-issue.jq
Normalises issue titles, matches prefixes, bracket tags, keywords, and signals, enforces tier limits, and emits canonical labels.
Label synchronisation
.github/workflows/labels.yml
Retrieves label metadata, creates missing labels, preserves frozen labels, updates non-frozen drift, and reports operation counts.
Issue triage workflow
.github/workflows/label-triage.yml
Classifies opened, reopened, or manually selected issues, filters labels to repository definitions, and applies results without failing the workflow.

Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to 546e3

The workflows can misclassify issues or leave label synchronization incomplete when reads fail or concurrent edits occur, and synchronization may also fail spuriously under overlapping runs. The PR is not merge-ready until these bounded correctness and reliability risks are addressed or explicitly accepted.

Poem

A rabbit sorts labels in rows,
jq follows where each signal goes.
Frozen tags stay still and bright,
New clues join the issue right.
Workflows hop when events appear,
Quiet exits keep things clear.

Pull Request Overview

The PR establishes a robust label taxonomy and automated triage system using jq. While the architecture is sound and complies with the repository's constraints, there are several critical omissions and logic bugs that should be addressed before merging.

Most notably, the PR description claims to update .github/workflows/actions.lock, but this change is missing from the diff, which will likely cause workflow startup failures in environments enforcing action locks. Additionally, the complex jq classification logic lacks accompanying unit or integration tests, and the script refers to a non-existent parity test file. Functional issues were also identified regarding Bash word-splitting errors during label application and an inflection-matching flaw in the jq regex generator.

About this PR

  • The complex classification logic implemented in jq lacks accompanying unit or integration tests to verify the regex boundaries and tier-enforcement logic. Given the 'additive-only' and 'non-override' requirements, automated verification is highly recommended to prevent regression.
  • The comment in .github/scripts/classify-issue.jq refers to tests/test-classifier-parity.py as a tool for asserting logic parity, but this file is missing from the PR. Please ensure all supporting test scripts are included.

Test suggestions

  • Verify classification from title prefixes (e.g., 'fix:' -> 'bug', 'docs:' -> 'documentation')
  • Verify classification from bracket tags (e.g., '[p0]' -> 'priority:p0', '[estate]' -> 'scope:estate')
  • Verify keyword-based area tagging (e.g., title containing 'agda' adds the 'proofs' area)
  • Confirm non-override logic (e.g., if an issue has 'enhancement', the bot must not add 'bug' even if 'fix:' prefix is present)
  • Validate label sync update logic (modifying color/description of an existing label)
  • Validate label sync skip logic (ensuring labels in the 'frozen' list are not modified)
Prompt proposal for missing tests
Consider implementing these tests if applicable:
1. Verify classification from title prefixes (e.g., 'fix:' -> 'bug', 'docs:' -> 'documentation')
2. Verify classification from bracket tags (e.g., '[p0]' -> 'priority:p0', '[estate]' -> 'scope:estate')
3. Verify keyword-based area tagging (e.g., title containing 'agda' adds the 'proofs' area)
4. Confirm non-override logic (e.g., if an issue has 'enhancement', the bot must not add 'bug' even if 'fix:' prefix is present)
5. Validate label sync update logic (modifying color/description of an existing label)
6. Validate label sync skip logic (ensuring labels in the 'frozen' list are not modified)

🔴 HIGH RISK

The PR description mentions updating '.github/workflows/actions.lock' to include these workflows, but the file is not present in the diff. This is a critical omission if the repo enforces the lock as described.

printf 'applying: %s\n' "${apply[*]}"
gh issue edit "$NUM" -R "$GITHUB_REPOSITORY" \
$(printf -- '--add-label %q ' "${apply[@]}") \
|| echo "label apply failed - not failing the run"

🟡 MEDIUM RISK

The unquoted subshell $(printf ...) will undergo word splitting that ignores the backslash escapes provided by %q. This will break label application for any label names containing spaces (e.g., 'good first issue').

Consider using a Bash array to build the gh issue edit command arguments instead of an unquoted subshell to ensure spaces are preserved.

# (`port` + `ion` = "portion", and `port` is a live keyword). They are enabled
# only for shapes that are unambiguously truncated stems -- `-at`
# (instantiat, investigat, adjudicat) and `-ment` (document, implement).

🟡 MEDIUM RISK

Suggestion: The dynamic regex generation in kwrx uses a suffix-concatenation strategy that requires keywords to be provided as proper stems for accurate inflection matching. Keywords like theory or policy currently result in invalid generated forms like theoryies, missing common pluralizations. Consider refining the JQ logic to handle y -> ies transitions.

GitHub CLI gh label create repository argument GH_REPO GITHUB_REPOSITORY no local repository context

💡 Result:

To use the GitHub CLI (gh) when you do not have a local repository context (i.e., you are not inside a git repository directory), you can specify the target repository using the --repo flag or the GH_REPO environment variable [1][2][3]. Using the --repo flag You can provide the repository directly in the command using the -R or --repo flag, formatted as [HOST/]OWNER/REPO [1][4]: gh label create "label-name" --repo "owner/repo" Using the GH_REPO environment variable Alternatively, you can set the GH_REPO environment variable before running the command [3]. When this variable is set, gh will use it as the target repository for commands that would otherwise require a local git repository context [5][3]. export GH_REPO="owner/repo" gh label create "label-name" Regarding GITHUB_REPOSITORY While GitHub Actions automatically sets the GITHUB_REPOSITORY environment variable, the GitHub CLI primarily relies on GH_REPO for repository targeting [6]. In environments like GitHub Actions, you must explicitly map GITHUB_REPOSITORY to GH_REPO if you want the CLI to automatically detect it [6]: env: GH_REPO: ${{ github.repository }} run: gh label create "label-name" Summary of Precedence The GitHub CLI resolves the target repository in the following order [6]: 1. The --repo flag 2. The GH_REPO environment variable 3. A local git repository context 4. The GITHUB_REPOSITORY environment variable (typically only available/relevant within GitHub Actions) [6]

Select the target repository for label mutations.

Lines 68 and 75 run gh label create and gh label edit without --repo. This workflow does not check out the repository or set GH_REPO, so GitHub CLI cannot resolve the target repository. The redirected errors leave missing labels and label drift unresolved while the workflow succeeds. Pass --repo "$GITHUB_REPOSITORY" to both commands.

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.

🌐 Web query:

Official GitHub CLI and GitHub Actions documentation: confirm whether gh issue edit --add-labeladds labels without removing existing labels, and how workflowconcurrency groups serialise runs.

💡 Result:

The GitHub CLI command gh issue edit --add-label adds the specified labels to an issue without removing existing labels [1][2]. The command is specifically designed to append labels to the current set; if you need to remove labels, you must use the separate --remove-label flag [1]. Regarding GitHub Actions, the concurrency keyword is used to group workflows or jobs into a concurrency group, ensuring that only a defined number of runs proceed at the same time for that group [3][4]. Serialization behavior is determined by the configuration of the concurrency group: 1. Default Behavior (Cancelation): By default, if a new workflow run or job is triggered with the same concurrency group name, GitHub Actions will cancel any currently running or pending job/workflow in that group to allow the new one to proceed [3][4][5]. 2. Sequential Execution (Queuing): You can achieve serial execution without cancelation by opting into queuing [4]. As of recent updates, concurrency groups can be configured to queue multiple pending runs (up to 100) and process them sequentially [5]. This is enabled by setting queue: max within the concurrency block, provided that cancel-in-progress is set to false or left at its default (which is not enabled) [5]. 3. Scope: Concurrency can be applied at the workflow level (affecting the entire run) or the job level (affecting only specific jobs), allowing for granular control over which processes are serialized [6].

Protect the max-one label invariant during triage writes.

classify-issue.jq uses HAVE to lock occupied max-one tiers, but gh issue edit --add-label only appends labels. A human label added after line 82 can therefore coexist with the stale label added at line 114. Add a per-issue concurrency group, then re-read and validate the relevant tier immediately before writing. Skip the write when that tier has changed. Concurrency does not protect against human edits outside the workflow.

Do not treat a failed label read as an empty label set.

If gh issue view --json labels fails, Line 83 sets HAVE to [] and classification continues. classify-issue.jq can then add a conflicting type or priority label because it believes that no max-one label exists. This violates the additive-only and human-classification guarantees.

Exit successfully without applying labels when the read fails. Use [] only after a successful empty response.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Serialise label synchronisation runs.

Two dispatches can list the same absent label before either creates it. The losing run then records a failed gh label create operation. If all of its mutations lose this race, lines 101-103 fail the workflow even though the other run completed the synchronisation.

Add a repository-wide concurrency group. Keep in-progress runs instead of cancelling them.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Stop the sync when the label inventory cannot be read.

If gh api .../labels fails, existing is empty because this script does not enable set -e. Lines 66-93 then treat all labels as missing. If one label is genuinely absent, its creation can succeed and make the workflow exit 0, while existing non-frozen labels are not checked or repaired for drift.

Handle the failed inventory read before the loop. Exit successfully without mutations if this additive workflow cannot determine the current state.

Proposed fix
-          existing=$(gh api "repos/$GITHUB_REPOSITORY/labels" --paginate \
-                       --jq '.[] | [.name, .color, (.description // "")] | `@tsv`')
+          if ! existing=$(gh api "repos/$GITHUB_REPOSITORY/labels" --paginate \
+                              --jq '.[] | [.name, .color, (.description // "")] | `@tsv`'); then
+            echo "cannot list repository labels - not attempting sync"
+            exit 0
