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 last hour with no labels, apply the right labels based on the title and description, set a priority, and route each to the correct team in Linear.
Keep the backlog clean without babysitting it. AgentBand reads each newly created issue, applies the labels that fit, sets a sensible priority, and routes it to the right team, so triage happens continuously instead of in a dreaded weekly sweep.
How it works
- 1 Find issues created since the last run with no labels
- 2 Choose labels and a priority from the title and description
- 3 Apply them and route each issue to the correct team
