name: issue-triage description: Queries and triages open GitHub issues that need attention. Helps identify issues needing milestones, labels, or investigation. metadata: author: dotnet-maui version: "2.1" compatibility: Requires GitHub CLI (gh) authenticated with access to dotnet/maui repository.

Issue Triage Skill

This skill helps triage open GitHub issues in the dotnet/maui repository by:

1. Initializing a session with current milestones and labels
2. Loading a batch of issues into memory
3. Presenting issues ONE AT A TIME for triage decisions
4. Suggesting milestones based on issue characteristics
5. Tracking progress through a triage session

When to Use

• "Find issues to triage"
• "Let's triage issues"
• "Grab me 10 issues to triage"
• "Triage Android issues"

Triage Workflow

Step 1: Initialize Session

Start by initializing a session to load current milestones and labels:

Copypwsh .github/skills/issue-triage/scripts/init-triage-session.ps1

Step 2: Load Issues Into Memory

Load a batch of issues (e.g., 20) but DO NOT display them all. Store them for one-at-a-time presentation:

Copypwsh .github/skills/issue-triage/scripts/query-issues.ps1 -Limit 100 -OutputFormat triage

Step 3: Present ONE Issue at a Time

IMPORTANT: When user asks to triage, present only ONE issue at a time in this format:

Copy## Issue #XXXXX

**[Title]**

🔗 [URL]

| Field | Value |
|-------|-------|
| **Author** | username (Syncfusion if applicable) |
| **Platform** | platform |
| **Area** | area |
| **Labels** | labels |
| **Linked PR** | PR info with milestone if available |
| **Regression** | Yes/No |
| **Comments** | count |

**Comment Summary** (if any):
- [Author] Comment preview...

**My Suggestion**: `Milestone` - Reason

What would you like to do with this issue?

Step 4: Wait for User Decision

Wait for user to say:

• A milestone name (e.g., "Backlog", "current SR", "Servicing")
• "yes" to accept suggestion
• "skip" or "next" to move on without changes
• Specific instructions (e.g., "next SR and add regression label")

Step 5: Apply Changes and Move to Next

After applying changes, automatically present the NEXT issue.

Script Parameters

query-issues.ps1

Milestone Suggestion Logic

The script dynamically queries current milestones from dotnet/maui and suggests them based on issue characteristics:

Note: SR milestones are sorted by due date, so the soonest SR is suggested for regressions. Milestone names change monthly, so they are queried dynamically rather than hardcoded.

Applying Triage Decisions

Copy# Set milestone only
gh issue edit ISSUE_NUMBER --repo dotnet/maui --milestone "Backlog"

# Set milestone and add labels  
gh issue edit ISSUE_NUMBER --repo dotnet/maui --milestone "MILESTONE_NAME" --add-label "i/regression"

# Set milestone on both issue AND linked PR
gh issue edit ISSUE_NUMBER --repo dotnet/maui --milestone "MILESTONE_NAME"
gh pr edit PR_NUMBER --repo dotnet/maui --milestone "MILESTONE_NAME"

Common Milestone Types

Note: Use init-triage-session.ps1 to see current milestone names.

Label Quick Reference

Regression Labels:

• i/regression - Confirmed regression
• regressed-in-10.0.0 - Specific version

Priority Labels:

• p/0 - Critical
• p/1 - High
• p/2 - Medium
• p/3 - Low

iOS 26 / macOS 26:

Session Tracking (Optional)

Copy# Record triaged issue
pwsh .github/skills/issue-triage/scripts/record-triage.ps1 -IssueNumber 33272 -Milestone "Backlog"
