# Triage Labels

These are applied as **Linear labels** on the `pi-atlas` team. Create them in Linear if they don't exist yet.

| mattpocock/skills role | Our label | Meaning |
|------------------------|-----------|---------|
| *(pre-triage)* | `considering` | Initial state for new issues and PRDs |
| `needs-triage` | `needs-triage` | Maintainer needs to evaluate |
| `needs-info` | `needs-info` | Waiting on reporter for more information |
| `ready-for-agent` | `ready-for-agent` | Fully specified, ready for an AFK agent |
| `ready-for-human` | `ready-for-human` | Requires human implementation |
| `wontfix` | `wontfix` | Will not be actioned |

New issues and PRDs are created with `considering`. A maintainer moves them to `needs-triage` after initial review.

When a skill mentions a role (e.g. "apply the AFK-ready triage label"), use the corresponding label string from this table.

To apply labels via the CLI: use `linear issue update` (interactive) or the Linear GraphQL API for non-interactive label operations.
