Find the issue that needs attention now. Recent activity matters more than arrival order.
Start in Activity. Filter to issues, then hide closed items or bot activity when they add noise.
Open Issues for a focused list. Select an issue to read its title, body, labels, assignees, comments, and state.
Search by text or issue number. Narrow the list by repository, state, whether you are involved, stars, or bot authorship. A star is private to Kenn Forge and works well as a short personal follow-up list.
- Read the newest activity first.
- Check labels and assignees, and change them when the provider supports it.
- Comment when you need more information.
- Close or reopen when the provider and credential allow it.
- Star work that needs another pass.
Choose Create Workspace from the issue detail. Forge creates a local worktree and opens Workspaces. Start a shell or configured agent on that branch.
If the expected issue worktree already exists, the create flow can recover it after checking that it belongs to the same managed repository. Forge does not adopt a directory from another repository or branch.
When a linked Kata issue exists, open the Kata tab for read-only task detail or to create the mapped Kata workspace.
