Agentic Workflow Playbook for Agentbook

This playbook defines the active GH-AW issue-management lifecycle used in this repository.

Canonical Issue Lifecycle

[opened] -> acknowledged -> triaged-fast-track
                         \-> triaged-for-research -> researched-waiting-opinions
                             -> opinion-copilot-strategy-posted + opinion-copilot-delivery-posted -> assigned -> closed

At any stage, any agent may reject by explaining the reason, adding rejected, and closing the issue.

Active workflow matrix

Stage	Trigger	Workflow file	Labels in	Labels out	Result
Intake + triage	`issues.opened`	`.github/workflows/issue-intake-triage.lock.yml`	(none)	`acknowledged` + route label	Issue acknowledged and routed
Fast-track delivery	`issues.labeled`	`.github/workflows/issue-fast-track-close.lock.yml`	`triaged-fast-track`	(optional `rejected`)	PR opened and issue closed
Research pass	`issues.labeled`	`.github/workflows/issue-research-pass.lock.yml`	`triaged-for-research`	`researched-waiting-opinions`	Research comment posted
Opinion A (Copilot strategy model)	`issues.labeled`	`.github/workflows/issue-opinion-copilot-strategy.lock.yml`	`researched-waiting-opinions`	`opinion-copilot-strategy-posted`	Copilot strategy perspective comment posted
Opinion B (Copilot delivery model)	`issues.labeled`	`.github/workflows/issue-opinion-copilot-delivery.lock.yml`	`researched-waiting-opinions`	`opinion-copilot-delivery-posted`	Copilot delivery perspective comment posted
Assignment + close	`issues.labeled`	`.github/workflows/issue-assignment-close.lock.yml`	`opinion-copilot-strategy-posted` or `opinion-copilot-delivery-posted`	`assigned`	Closes only when both opinion labels exist

Routing rules

Use triaged-fast-track for small, low-risk, clearly scoped changes.
Use triaged-for-research for broad, unclear, or high-impact requests.
External broken-link issues are generally expected to route to triaged-fast-track.

Source of truth and compilation rule

Workflow source files are maintained in .github/workflows/*.md and must be compiled to .lock.yml with gh aw commands.

When a workflow source file changes:

Re-compile to the matching .lock.yml.
Commit source and lock file together.
Keep this matrix updated in the same PR.
