# Scripts
## cleanup-duplicate-prs.sh
Automated detection and cleanup of duplicate open PRs.
### Purpose
This script identifies PRs that are duplicates (same issue number or very similar titles) and closes the older ones. It's designed to help maintain a clean PR board and prevent confusion from duplicate work.
### Features
- **Issue-based grouping**: Groups PRs by issue number extracted from titles
- **Date-based selection**: Keeps the newest PR, closes older duplicates
- **Dry-run mode**: Shows what would be done without making changes
- **Stale PR detection**: Identifies PRs older than 30 days with no activity
- **Explanatory comments**: Adds comments when closing PRs to explain why
### Usage
```bash
# Dry run (default) - shows what would be done
./scripts/cleanup-duplicate-prs.sh
# Actually close duplicates
./scripts/cleanup-duplicate-prs.sh --close
# Set environment variables
export GITEA_TOKEN="your_token_here"
export REPO="Timmy_Foundation/the-nexus"
export GITEA_URL="https://forge.alexanderwhitestone.com"
```
### Configuration
The script uses the following environment variables:
| Variable | Default | Description |
|----------|---------|-------------|
| `GITEA_TOKEN` | (required) | Gitea API token with repo access |
| `GITEA_URL` | `https://forge.alexanderwhitestone.com` | Gitea instance URL |
| `REPO` | `Timmy_Foundation/the-nexus` | Repository in `owner/repo` format |
| `DRY_RUN` | `true` | Set to `false` to actually close PRs |
### How It Works
1. **Fetch open PRs**: Gets all open PRs from the repository
2. **Extract issue numbers**: Parses issue numbers from PR titles (e.g., `#123`)
3. **Group by issue**: Groups PRs that address the same issue
4. **Identify duplicates**: Finds issues with multiple open PRs
5. **Select newest**: For each duplicate group, keeps the newest PR
6. **Close older PRs**: Closes older duplicates with explanatory comments
7. **Check for stale PRs**: Identifies PRs older than 30 days
### Example Output

### Safety Features
- **Dry-run by default**: Won't close PRs unless explicitly told to
- **Explanatory comments**: Adds comments before closing to explain why
- **Newest PR preserved**: Always keeps the most recent PR for each issue
- **No force deletion**: Only closes PRs, doesn't delete branches
### Integration
This script can be integrated into CI/CD pipelines or run manually as part of regular maintenance. It's designed to be run weekly to keep the PR board clean.
