📝 WalkthroughSummary by CodeRabbit
WalkthroughAdds a generated label taxonomy, a jq classifier, and two dependency-free GitHub Actions workflows. The workflows synchronise repository labels and apply confident, additive labels to newly opened or reopened issues. ChangesLabel automation
Estimated code review effort: 4 (Complex) | ~45 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The new label automation may report success without synchronizing labels when its canonical data cannot be fetched, and may add a conflicting tier label if existing labels cannot be read. The PR is mergeable with explicit owner awareness or follow-up on these bounded workflow reliability issues. Sequence Diagram(s)sequenceDiagram

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.

Fail closed when the existing-label read fails.
If gh issue view --json labels fails, HAVE becomes [] and execution continues to gh issue edit. This can add a conflicting tier label because the workflow no longer knows the existing labels. Exit before editing when label retrieval fails.

🩺 Stability & Availability | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Fail when the canonical payload cannot be fetched.
Lines 51-53 discard every gh api and Base64 decoding error, then exit successfully when PAYLOAD is empty. A token, GitHub API, or decoding failure therefore gives a green result while no labels are synchronised. Exit non-zero when the payload fetch or decode fails.
Proposed fix
- gh api "repos/$GITHUB_REPOSITORY/contents/.github/labels.json?ref=$GITHUB_SHA" \
- --jq '.content' 2>/dev/null | base64 -d > "$PAYLOAD" || true
- [ -s "$PAYLOAD" ] || { echo "no .github/labels.json - nothing to do"; exit 0; }
