Auto-triage new issues

New issues get labeled and prioritized the moment they land.

Paste this into AgentBand

Every hour, review issues created in the WEB project in the last hour with no labels, apply the right labels from the summary and description, set a priority, and assign a component in Jira.

Tools
Jira
Runs Every hour

Keep the backlog clean without babysitting it. AgentBand reads each newly created issue, applies the labels that fit, sets a sensible priority, and files it under the right component, so triage happens continuously instead of in a dreaded weekly sweep.

How it works

  1. 1 Find issues created in the project since the last run with no labels
  2. 2 Choose labels and a priority from the summary and description
  3. 3 Apply them and set the right component on each issue

Every hour. You can also run it on demand at any time, or change the schedule by chatting with it.

Do I need to write any code? +

No. You describe the agent in a sentence, connect the tools it needs, and AgentBand runs it. There is nothing to code or deploy.
