feat(labels): estate label tooling + auto-triage for new issues - #125
Conversation
📝 WalkthroughSummary by CodeRabbit
WalkthroughAdds a canonical label registry, classifier rules, a jq issue classifier, an additive issue-triage workflow, and a label synchronisation workflow. The workflows use GitHub APIs without checkout or third-party actions. ChangesLabel automation
Estimated code review effort: 3 (Moderate) | ~25 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The PR adds automatic issue labeling and label synchronization. Some plural issue wording may miss an intended performance label, and concurrent synchronization runs may report failure even when labels are correct; these are bounded follow-up risks, so the change is mergeable with owner awareness.

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.

Handle y-ending keywords as stems for plural -ies forms.
kwrx("latency") can match latency but not latencies, because it appends ies to the complete keyword. Therefore, feat: reduce latencies can receive enhancement but miss the performance area. Add a stem-plus-ies alternative.

🌐 Web query:
Does GitHub Actions workflow-level concurrency with the same group and cancel-in-progress: false serialise workflow runs?
💡 Result:
No, setting cancel-in-progress: false does not fully serialize workflow runs in the sense of queuing every single triggered run [1][2]. By default, GitHub Actions concurrency groups (with cancel-in-progress: false) allow at most one running job and one pending job per group at any given time [3][4][2]. If a workflow run is currently in progress, any subsequent run triggered within the same concurrency group will enter a pending state [3][2]. However, if another run is already waiting in the pending slot, the new incoming run will cancel the existing pending run and take its place [3][1][2]. In effect, this configuration ensures that the job currently running is never interrupted, and only the most recent incoming request is queued to run next, causing any intermediate pending runs to be dropped [1][2]. As of May 2026, GitHub introduced a way to support larger queues to enable full serialization [5]. You can now enable this by adding queue: max to your concurrency block in the workflow YAML [5]. When queue: max is configured alongside cancel-in-progress: false, the concurrency group will allow multiple runs to wait in line and execute sequentially, up to a limit of 100 queued runs [5]. Without this queue: max parameter, the group remains limited to the one-running/one-pending behavior [3][5].

site:docs.github.com/actions concurrency cancel-in-progress false one running one pending workflow runs
💡 Result:
When using the concurrency keyword in GitHub Actions with cancel-in-progress: false (which is the default behavior if cancel-in-progress is omitted), GitHub Actions enforces a limit of one running job or workflow per concurrency group [1][2]. If a new workflow run is triggered while a run in the same concurrency group is already in progress: 1. The new run will be placed in a pending state [1][2]. 2. Any existing pending run in that same concurrency group will be canceled, and the newly triggered run will take its place in the pending queue [1][2]. As a result, with cancel-in-progress: false, you can have at most one job or workflow instance running, and at most one job or workflow instance waiting in the pending queue at any given time [1][2][3]. The running job will complete, and the pending job will then begin execution [1][2].

GitHub CLI gh label create already exists exit status error documentation
💡 Result:
When using the GitHub CLI (gh) to create a label, the command gh label create will return a non-zero exit status (typically 1) and an "HTTP 422: Validation Failed" error if the label name already exists in the repository [1]. This occurs because, by default, the command expects to create a new, unique label [2]. If you intend to ensure a label exists with specific properties—and want to update an existing label if it already exists—you must use the --force flag [2][3]. As documented in the official GitHub CLI manual: - gh label create [flags] - Use the -f or --force flag to update the label color and description if the label already exists [2][3]. If you are running this command in a script and want to handle the existence of a label gracefully without using --force, you can check for the label's existence first using gh label list or suppress the error if it is expected [4]. However, using the --force flag is the standard and recommended way to handle this behavior within the CLI itself [2][3].

Serialise label synchronisation runs.
labels.yml snapshots existing before mutation. Two overlapping runs can both attempt to create a missing label. The second run then receives an already-exists error and exits 1 when no other mutation succeeds, although the repository is correct. Add a workflow-level concurrency group with cancel-in-progress: false; this prevents overlapping runs.
