…eady + author-primary template polish (apache#226) Two related improvements found while running pr-management-stats on a large queue (apache/airflow, 477 open PRs): **1. Row 20 (and row 19) — exclude non-collaborator unresolved threads from the mark-ready / already-ready predicate.** Previously rows 19/20 required `reviewThreads.totalCount == 0` (any unresolved thread blocks mark-ready). In practice this caught the "contributors review each other" case — drive-by reviewers, copilot bot threads — and parked otherwise-passing PRs in an unclassified limbo with no row matching them. They couldn't reach the review queue. The fix mirrors the `unresolved_threads_only` precondition (which rows 14c/15 already use), where only collaborator-authored unresolved threads count as a deterministic signal. Contributor-author threads exist for the PR author to address but don't gate maintainer review. Row F4 (`already marked ready, no regression`) gets the same collaborator qualifier for consistency — otherwise a contributor thread on a ready-labelled PR would falsely flag it as regressed. Concrete impact on apache/airflow today: 6 PRs (SUCCESS, no conflicts, 0 collab threads, but 1-4 contributor-author threads) reached the maintainer review queue via this rule rather than falling through. **2. Author-primary templates — `<reviewer_logins>` placeholder + explicit "resolve + ping" hand-back.** When a comment's only addressee is the PR author (the three author-primary templates: `request-author-confirmation`, `reviewer-ping` author-primary, `review-nudge` author-primary), the existing `<reviewers>` placeholder rendered as `@login` and produced a notification for the reviewer — even though the next action is on the author and the reviewer shouldn't be pinged. Adds a sibling placeholder `<reviewer_logins>` that renders the same logins as backtick-quoted code (no `@`), suitable for author-primary templates. The reviewer is named for context without producing a notification. The three author-primary template bodies also pick up an explicit hand-back instruction: when the author believes the feedback is addressed, they mark the thread(s) resolved and `@`-mention the reviewer themselves — the ping then comes from the author (who has done the work) rather than from the bot (which only saw engagement). Reviewer-re-review variants and `mark-ready-with-ping` keep using `<reviewers>` (the `@`-form) because in those flows the reviewer IS the next-action recipient. The new "Reviewer-mention policy" section spells out the placeholder / template mapping. Tested against apache/airflow's adopter overrides for several weeks before upstreaming. The placeholder addition is backward compatible — adopters that don't update their overrides continue to use the literal `<reviewers>` rendering.
…ls (apache#220) * detect Pattern 4 injection-guard callout; fix four pr-management skills * fix merge issues
…pache#232) Add a merit-discussion-in-flight exception to the strip-ready-on-downgrade hard rule. When the PR has an unresolved review thread whose first comment is from a COLLABORATOR/MEMBER/OWNER, the `ready for maintainer review` label is preserved on regression — `draft` actions additionally skip the draft conversion, `close` actions skip the close (comment + quality-violations label still apply), `comment` actions just post without stripping. The precondition is deliberately broad — any maintainer-opened unresolved thread satisfies it, regardless of body length or whether it was opened before or after the label-add. Contributor-author threads alone do not satisfy it. Source: user-scope feedback memory `feedback-ready-for-maintainer-review-label`. CI red and a live design debate are orthogonal; a maintainer can weigh in on design even when CI is red. Files touched (skill `pr-management-triage`): - classify-and-act.md — new `merit_discussion_thread_present` precondition + exception block in the `strip-ready-on-downgrade` hard rule. - actions.md — Case A / Case B branches in `draft`, `comment`, and `close` recipes; preview must quote the maintainer-thread URLs that triggered the exception. - rationale.md — new "Merit-discussion exception" section explaining why the precondition is broad. Out of scope: \`stale-sweeps.md\` Sweep 4 also strips the ready label, but on a different signal (author silence >= 7 days) — flagged for follow-up if wanted. Generated-by: Claude Code (Opus 4.7)
…mapping reads (apache#231) Two critical correctness bugs in the redactor package. 1. The --field help text listed a type name "reporter" and code "R" that the parser does not accept (valid names come from TYPE_CODES: name/email/phone/ip/handle/address, codes N/E/P/IP/H/A). A user copying the documented form got SystemExit and their PII flowed to the LLM unredacted. Help text now lists the real names and codes. 2. load_mapping read the mapping file with the locale-default encoding while save_mapping_atomic writes UTF-8. On a non-UTF-8 host this corrupts non-ASCII PII values (accented names, IDN domains) on the round-trip, so pii-reveal substitutes wrong text. load_mapping now reads with encoding="utf-8". Adds a regression test for each fix.

…g-bucket split (apache#230) * feat(pr-management-stats): trends-over-time, CODEOWNERS panel, waiting-bucket split Three related additions to the pr-management-stats spec, all derived from running the skill on apache/airflow (484 open PRs, 6-week cutoff) and finding gaps in what the existing dashboard surfaces. ## 1. Trends over time (panel 3b — 5 sub-panels) Adds a "Trends over time" section between "What needs attention" and "Closure velocity" with 5 inline-SVG line-chart sub-panels: - **Open backlog over time** — end-of-week snapshot of total open count, showing whether the queue is growing/shrinking week-over-week (createdAt ≤ window.end AND (still open OR closedAt > window.end)). - **PRs opened by author class** — per-week `opened` count split by author association (FIRST_TIME / CONTRIBUTOR / MAINTAINER). Surfaces shifts in inflow composition. - **Triage velocity** — count of PRs whose first QC marker comment fell in each week, split by AI-drafted vs manually-typed QC. Surfaces triage throughput. - **Triage coverage rate by week opened** — for PRs opened in each week, % that ever received `is_engaged` maintainer engagement. A declining trend is an early-warning indicator for backlog growth. - **Ready-for-review queue size (cumulative)** — total ready-queue size end-of-week, single line, all areas combined. (Per-area version is the existing panel 6.) Each chart pairs with a per-week table for precise numbers. The classify-and-aggregate path needs no new fetches — all computed from the already-fetched open + closed datasets + the ready-label timeline. Two of the five panels (triage velocity, triage coverage rate) have a documented data caveat: the closed-PR fetch caps `comments(last:25)` per PR, so older outstanding triage markers on chatty PRs are missed. Surface this in the panel. ## 2. CODEOWNERS panel (8b) New panel: "Ready-for-review queue by CODEOWNER". For each entry in the project's `.github/CODEOWNERS`, count how many currently-ready PRs that owner is responsible for (file-pattern match, GitHub's last-match-wins). A PR with multiple owners contributes once per owner. Two extras in the panel: - **Waiting-for-author column** — count of the owner's ready PRs where that owner has personally posted an unresponded comment. Surfaces who the queue is *waiting on the author to respond to* per maintainer. - **"No CODEOWNERS match" row** — currently-ready PRs whose changed files match no rule. Surfaces paths where the CODEOWNERS file could be extended. Needs one new fetch — `pullRequest.files(first:100)` aliased per ready PR — ~8 GraphQL calls for ~150 ready PRs. Cache per `(pr_number, head_sha)`. Skip the panel entirely when `.github/CODEOWNERS` is absent. ## 3. Triage funnel split (panel 9 — 4 → 5 cards) Splits the existing "Waiting for author" hero card into two mutually- exclusive buckets: - **Waiting: AI-triage comment only** — author hasn't responded AND the most recent unresponded maintainer comment is AI-drafted, AND no manual maintainer comment is unresponded. - **Waiting: author response to maintainer** — at least one *manual* (non-AI) maintainer comment is unresponded. Higher priority — this is the real "author owes a maintainer a reply" signal. Implementation uses two new classify-time predicates (`waiting_for_ai_only` / `waiting_for_manual_response`) defined in terms of the most-recent author activity timestamp + the AI-attribution footer substring already used by `is_ai_triaged`. The funnel grid grows 4 → 5 cards; the existing 4 funnel cards (Ready / Responded / Stalest / Velocity) are reorganised in the spec text as well — the new layout has Ready / Responded / AI-only / Manual / Untriaged in precedence order. ## Why upstream now All three improvements proved useful on apache/airflow's queue during maintenance this week. They're project-agnostic (CODEOWNERS is a GitHub feature, AI-attribution footer is the framework's own substring, trends use the same weekly window pattern the existing panels already use), so upstreaming benefits any adopter. The three changes are independent — a reviewer who wants to take only a subset can drop the relevant commit / file edits. They were bundled here because they all touch the same skill and were developed together. * fix(pr-management-stats): correct fetch.md anchor and close fences cleanly - Two cross-file links pointed at fetch.md#pr-changed-files; the actual heading slug is pr-changed-files-codeowners-panel. - Pre-existing ```text...```text fence pairs in aggregate.md were tolerated until this PR added properly-closed (```) fences. The first bare close swallowed an earlier leniently-open fence into one giant code block, hiding the Opened-vs-closed-weekly-buckets and Ready-for-review-trend headings from MD051's same-file anchor lookup. Closing the older fences with bare ``` matches the dominant convention across the skills and restores heading visibility. Generated-by: Claude Code (Opus 4.7)

Hi @justinmclean — heads-up: this PR currently shows as conflicting against The conflicts are in I had a look at rebasing it on your behalf, but resolving how the new validator from this PR should coexist with the Pattern 4 infrastructure feels like a judgement call you should make rather than me guessing. Could you rebase against latest Thanks! |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
@justinmclean pulled this locally and ran the suite. 115 tests pass and skill-validate is clean on both default and --strict. content matches the description.
heads up for anyone reviewing: the PR card shows 23 files / 1497 / 96, but the real 3-dot diff (compare/main...setup-security) is 9 files / 450 / 54. the rest is main being merged into the branch and inflating gh pr diff. easy to gloss over the actual changes.
found one bug in the new validator while poking at the regex. _code_spans doesn't catch an inline backtick span that wraps a newline. so prose like
`gh issue comment --body
"<x>"`
ends up with _inline_only_code_spans returning empty, _BODY_INLINE_RE matches --body\n", and the check fires on text that should be ignored. that false positive is exactly what the line-join in security-issue-triage/SKILL.md is working around. not blocking since the check is SOFT-category and the suite ships green, but worth a follow-up to teach _code_spans about multi-line inline spans, then the cosmetic line-join can revert.
also one small gap: -F field=<placeholder> without @file slips past, since the check only looks at -f. convention is always @file so edge case, but easy to add.
bigger concern is the PR state. mergeable_state=dirty, 21 commits with 4 merges + a couple of "remove duplicate code from merge" + a uv.lock revert. @potiuk's approval is on 0356342, head is aeca116, so 16 commits stale including the conflict-resolution dedup. would rebase, force-push, and re-request review before merge.

-F field=@/tmp/<file>instead.Static GraphQL queries (no

_inline_only_code_spanshelperReturns inline-backtick spans only, excluding fenced blocks. Uses
position-based containment rather than exact tuple matching — the previous
set-membership approach left a residual

inline and skipped.
New:
SECURITY_PATTERN_SKIP_PATHSwrite-skill/security-checklist.mdis excluded from security-pattern checksbecause it intentionally shows "NO — do not use this" examples. Suppressing
these false positives keeps the advisory output signal-only.
