Owner

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 labelling for newly opened and reopened issues based on their titles.
    • Added automated synchronisation of the repository’s standard labels.
    • Added a centralised label taxonomy covering types, areas, priorities, statuses, metadata and scopes.
  • Chores
    • Added generated configuration supporting consistent label classification and management.

Walkthrough

Adds a generated GitHub label taxonomy, a jq issue classifier, and two dependency-free GitHub Actions workflows. The workflows classify new or reopened issues and synchronise repository labels from the canonical configuration.

Changes

Label automation

Layer / File(s) Summary
Label taxonomy and generated definitions
.github/label-classifier.json, .github/labels.json
Defines title prefixes, bracket tags, keyword signals, label tiers, precedence, frozen labels, and 34 generated labels.
Issue title classification
.github/scripts/classify-issue.jq
Normalises issue titles, applies configured rules and keyword matching, enforces tier limits, and emits canonical labels not already present.
Issue triage workflow
.github/workflows/label-triage.yml
Classifies opened and reopened issues, filters results against repository labels, and adds labels without removing existing labels.
Label synchronisation workflow
.github/workflows/labels.yml
Creates missing labels, preserves frozen labels, updates non-frozen differences, and reports mutation results.

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

Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to 7ebfe

Concurrent issue-labeling or label-definition updates can produce conflicting classifications or stale metadata; the PR is otherwise mergeable with explicit owner awareness and follow-up to serialize these writes.

Poem

A rabbit checks each label line,

jq sorts signals into design.
Frozen tags stay safely still,
Workflows hop by schedule and will.
New issues gain a careful mark,
While sync keeps labels on the mark.

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.

GitHub Actions workflow-level concurrency group allowed contexts github inputs cancel-in-progress semantics official documentation

💡 Result:

In GitHub Actions, the concurrency group is defined using the concurrency keyword, which restricts the number of workflow runs or jobs that execute simultaneously within a specified group [1][2]. Allowed Contexts When defining the concurrency group (the group key), you can use expressions to dynamically set the group name [1][3]. The following expression contexts are supported for workflow-level concurrency: - github [1][4] - inputs [1][4] - vars [1][4] Note that when using concurrency at the job level (jobs.<job_id>.concurrency), additional contexts such as needs, strategy, and matrix are also supported [4][5]. Cancel-in-Progress Semantics The cancel-in-progress key determines how GitHub Actions handles new runs when a concurrency group is already active [1][2]. - If cancel-in-progress is set to true, GitHub Actions will automatically cancel any existing workflow run or job that is currently in progress within the same concurrency group [1][2]. - If cancel-in-progress is false (or omitted), new runs entering the same concurrency group will be placed in a pending state and will execute in order after the current run completes [2][6]. - It is also possible to specify cancel-in-progress as an expression (e.g., to conditionally cancel based on certain variables), provided that the expression uses allowed contexts [2]. By default, when a new workflow run or job is triggered in a concurrency group that already has a pending run, the existing pending run is canceled, and the new run takes its place [2][6].

Serialise concurrent label writes.

  • .github/workflows/label-triage.yml: Each run reads issue labels, computes max-one-tier additions, then writes them. Runs with different label or classifier snapshots can add conflicting labels. Add an issue-scoped concurrency group.
  • .github/workflows/labels.yml: Each run loads .github/labels.json from its GITHUB_SHA, then updates label definitions. An older run can apply stale colours or descriptions. Add a repository-scoped group with cancel-in-progress: true.
