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 issue labelling based on title prefixes, keywords, status, priority and scope.
    • Added workflows to apply labels to newly opened or reopened issues.
    • Added scheduled and on-demand synchronisation for the repository’s standard labels.
  • Improvements

    • Existing labels are preserved, with protected labels excluded from automatic updates.
    • Label classification runs safely without blocking issue creation when uncertain or unsuccessful.

Walkthrough

This change adds a canonical GitHub label taxonomy, a jq issue-title classifier, an additive issue-triage workflow, and a scheduled label-synchronisation workflow.

Changes

Issue Label Automation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Label taxonomy and classification rules
.github/labels.json, .github/label-classifier.json
Defines 39 labels across six tiers, frozen labels, title-prefix and bracket-tag rules, keyword signals, tier limits, supported types, and precedence ordering.
Issue title classification
.github/scripts/classify-issue.jq
Normalises issue titles, resolves configured rules and signals, enforces tier limits, excludes existing labels, and emits suggested labels.
Issue triage workflow
.github/workflows/label-triage.yml
Classifies opened, reopened, or manually selected issues, filters suggestions against repository labels, and applies labels without removing existing labels.
Label synchronisation
.github/workflows/labels.yml
Creates missing labels and updates colour or description drift while skipping frozen labels. It runs manually, after label configuration changes, and monthly.

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

Merge Risk: 🟡 Moderate · up to d795d

This PR adds automated workflows that modify repository labels, but overlapping runs can produce conflicting classifications, API or synchronization failures can be silently misreported, and the mutation workflows have broader write authority and revision-control exposure than necessary. These are bounded but concrete correctness, integrity, and availability risks, so merge should wait for fixes or explicit owner acceptance.

Poem

A rabbit sorts labels in neat little rows
The jq wheel turns, and the right answer shows
Frozen tags stay still, while new ones take flight
Workflows check colours by day and by night
The issue burrow hums, tidy and bright

20-26: 🔒 Security & Privacy

No trusted-revision guard is required for this path.

gh label create and gh label edit have no --repo argument, and the workflow does not check out a repository. These commands cannot resolve a target repository on a clean runner, and their failures are suppressed. A non-default branch can supply $GITHUB_SHA, but it cannot use this path to perform the claimed label writes.

Prevent stale runs from overwriting current label metadata.

Concurrent runs can read different $GITHUB_SHA values at Lines 44-45. An older run can then reach Lines 66-68 after a newer run and restore stale colours or descriptions. Add workflow-level concurrency with cancel-in-progress: true, and reject stale revisions before writing.

Fail the workflow when label synchronisation does not complete.

set -uo pipefail does not enable errexit. The fetch is masked by || true, jq failures in process substitutions are not checked, and failed create/edit calls only skip the counters. A source-read, JSON-parse, or label-mutation failure can therefore report success while .github/workflows/label-triage.yml lacks the labels needed for classification. Handle an expected 404 separately, validate the payload with jq -e, check every API call, and exit non-zero when synchronisation is incomplete.

🌐 Web query:

GitHub CLI gh label create edit repository resolution GH_REPO no git repository --repo documentation

💡 Result:

To create a label in a GitHub repository using the GitHub CLI (gh), you use the gh label create command [1][2]. If you encounter a "no git repository" error (often appearing as fatal: not a git repository), it means the GitHub CLI is unable to determine which repository to act upon because you are executing the command outside of a directory initialized as a Git repository [3][4]. To resolve this, you must explicitly specify the target repository using the --repo (or -R) flag [1][2]. The command format is: gh label create --repo <[HOST/]OWNER/REPO> [flags] For example: gh label create "bug" --description "Something isn't working" --color E99695 --repo my-org/my-repository Options available for the command include: -c, --color : The 6-character hex color code for the label [1][5]. -d, --description : A description of the label [1][6]. -f, --force: Updates the label's color and description if the label name already exists [1][7]. If you are not in a Git repository, providing the --repo flag informs the CLI exactly where to perform the action, bypassing the need for a local Git configuration [3][4].

Citations:


Pass the repository explicitly to both gh label commands.

This workflow does not check out the repository or set GH_REPO. Both commands can therefore fail because gh cannot determine the target repository. Add -R "$GITHUB_REPOSITORY" to both commands, or set GH_REPO in the step environment.

Pull Request Overview

This PR introduces a robust automated labeling and triage system that adheres to requirements for being additive-only and avoiding external GitHub Action dependencies. While the implementation is functionally sound and meets Codacy standards, the label synchronization workflow in .github/workflows/labels.yml contains several performance and efficiency bottlenecks, specifically regarding subshell execution inside loops and unnecessary sleep delays.

A significant concern is the complexity of the .github/scripts/classify-issue.jq script, which handles intricate regex and precedence logic for issue triage. Currently, there are no unit tests included in the PR to verify these classification rules against the provided taxonomy, representing a risk for future maintenance and accuracy. Additionally, error suppression in the sync workflow should be minimized to aid in troubleshooting API-related failures across the estate.

About this PR

  • The .github/scripts/classify-issue.jq script implements complex precedence and keyword matching logic. While the PR description mentions external parity tests, no unit tests are included here to verify the implementation against the specific taxonomy. Consider adding a test suite to ensure the regex boundaries (like strict left boundary checks) work as intended.

Test suggestions

  • Verify 'feat:' prefix in title results in 'enhancement' label being suggested.
  • Verify '[security]' bracket tag in title results in 'security' area label.
  • Verify keyword-based area matching (e.g., 'agda' in title adds 'proofs').
  • Ensure 'clean up' does not trigger the 'lean' (proofs) keyword match due to strict left boundary check.
  • Verify that an issue already labeled as 'bug' (type) does not receive an 'enhancement' label from the classifier even if the title uses 'feat:'.
  • Verify the sync workflow ignores updates to labels listed in the 'frozen' array.
  • Verify the sync workflow correctly updates the color and description of an existing label if they differ from the JSON.
Prompt proposal for missing tests
Consider implementing these tests if applicable:
1. Verify 'feat:' prefix in title results in 'enhancement' label being suggested.
2. Verify '[security]' bracket tag in title results in 'security' area label.
3. Verify keyword-based area matching (e.g., 'agda' in title adds 'proofs').
4. Ensure 'clean up' does not trigger the 'lean' (proofs) keyword match due to strict left boundary check.
5. Verify that an issue already labeled as 'bug' (type) does not receive an 'enhancement' label from the classifier even if the title uses 'feat:'.
6. Verify the sync workflow ignores updates to labels listed in the 'frozen' array.
7. Verify the sync workflow correctly updates the color and description of an existing label if they differ from the JSON.
Low confidence findings
  • Using gh api to fetch file contents base64-encoded (to avoid actions/checkout and lockfile versioning) is a clever workaround but makes the workflow more brittle. Ensure that the GITHUB_TOKEN permissions and API response formats are stable for this approach.
  • The labels.yml sync workflow performs an API call in a loop for every defined label. While a sleep 0.4 is included, large taxonomies or frequent execution across multiple repositories may hit secondary rate limits. Monitor performance as the taxonomy grows.

⚪ LOW RISK

Suggestion: Piping the large $existing string into awk inside a loop is inefficient. Write the labels to a file once and use awk to query that file.

Try running the following prompt in your coding agent:

In .github/workflows/labels.yml, optimize the label sync loop by writing the output of the gh api call (lines 51-52) to a file in $work instead of a variable. Then, update the awk command (line 60) to read from that file instead of using printf | awk.

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.

20-26: Prevent an older run from restoring stale label metadata.

A manually dispatched run can use an older $GITHUB_SHA. If it writes after a newer run, it can restore older colours and descriptions. Add workflow-level concurrency and verify that the checked revision is still current before mutation.


50-59: Do not report an incomplete synchronisation as successful.

A failed payload fetch or jq parse can leave the loop empty and exit with success. A failed label-list request can also cause partial creation while existing labels are not checked or updated. Validate each API payload and exit non-zero when synchronisation is incomplete.

🗄️ Data Integrity & Integration | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Add a concurrency group keyed on the issue number.

The workflow triggers on both opened and reopened, and also on workflow_dispatch. Two runs for the same issue can therefore overlap. The comment at Lines 78-81 states that the window between the HAVE read (Line 82) and the gh issue edit (Line 114) must stay narrow. Concurrent runs defeat that guarantee: run A and run B both read the same empty HAVE, and both add a label in the same max-1 tier. The result is two type labels on one issue, which the classifier is designed to prevent.

Move issues: write to the job and document both scopes.

permissions currently grants issues: write to every job in the workflow. Only the triage job needs it. Declare a read-only workflow default and grant the write scope at job level. Add a short comment for each scope, which also clears the undocumented-permissions hint.

Note that contents: read is load-bearing here: Lines 59-62 read .github/label-classifier.json and .github/scripts/classify-issue.jq through the contents API.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win

Distinguish a failed label list from an empty taxonomy.

Line 75 discards the exit status and the stderr of gh label list. If that call fails, for example on a rate limit or a transient API error, DEFINED is empty. The intersection loop at Lines 95-99 then produces nothing, and Line 101 reports that the repository defines none of the labels and advises a label sync. That advice is wrong for an API failure, and the real cause is invisible in the log.

Capture the status and report the two cases separately. Both paths still exit 0, so the additive-only and never-fail contract is unchanged.

🩹 Proposed fix to separate the two cases
-          mapfile -t DEFINED < <(gh label list -R "$GITHUB_REPOSITORY" --limit 1000 \
-                                   --json name --jq '.[].name' 2>/dev/null)
+          if ! LABEL_LIST=$(gh label list -R "$GITHUB_REPOSITORY" --limit 1000 \
+                              --json name --jq '.[].name'); then
+            echo "could not read this repo's labels - leaving for a human"
+            exit 0
+          fi
+          mapfile -t DEFINED <<< "$LABEL_LIST"
