## Summary
Added tools and process for managing PR backlog in timmy-config.
## Problem
timmy-config has 31+ open PRs, the highest in the organization.
This creates confusion, slows down development, and increases
merge conflicts.
## Solution
Created automated tools and process for PR backlog management:
### 1. PR Backlog Analyzer (`scripts/pr-backlog-analyzer.py`)
- Fetches all open PRs from timmy-config
- Analyzes age, review status, labels
- Generates markdown report
- Categorizes PRs: stale, needs review, approved, changes requested
### 2. GitHub Actions Workflow (`.github/workflows/pr-backlog-management.yml`)
- Runs weekly on Monday at 10 AM UTC
- Analyzes PR backlog
- Creates issue if backlog is high (>10 stale PRs)
- Uploads report as artifact
### 3. Documentation (`docs/pr-backlog-process.md`)
- Weekly analysis process
- Review stale PRs procedure
- Merge approved PRs workflow
- Review pending PRs SLA
- Close duplicate PRs process
- Metrics to track
- Escalation procedures
## Usage
### Run Analyzer
```bash
python scripts/pr-backlog-analyzer.py
```
### View Report
```bash
cat reports/pr-backlog-$(date +%Y%m%d).md
```
## Metrics
- **Current**: 32 open PRs in timmy-config
- **Target**: <20 open PRs
- **SLA**: Review within 48 hours, merge within 7 days
