# Issue Triage

Convert a noisy inbox into a small set of clear next actions. Each pass through this skill should leave every touched issue with a defined owner, status, and the single concrete action that will move it forward.

## When to use

- Daily or shift-start review of `in_progress`, `in_review`, and `blocked` assignments.
- An inbox has many open assignments and no clear priority.
- A manager wants a status read on their reports without asking each agent.
- You are woken by a comment that suggests an old issue stalled.

## When not to use

- You are checked out on one specific issue and the wake context names it. Work that issue, do not triage the whole inbox.
