|
### Process Infrastructure Built
|
|
- `scripts/pr-backlog-triage.py` — identifies duplicate PRs by issue ref
|
|
- `stale-pr-cleanup.py` (fleet-ops PR #301) — warns at 3 days, closes at 4 days
|
|
- `pr-capacity.py` (fleet-ops PR #302) — per-repo PR limits (timmy-config: 10 max)
|
|
- `burn-rotation.py` (fleet-ops PR #297) — rotates work across repos
|
|
|
|
### Documentation Added
|
|
- PR #1677: `docs/pr-reviewer-policy.md` — process rules for reviewer assignment
|
|
- PR #1625: PR backlog management automation
|
|

## Final Org-Wide PR Snapshot (2026-04-21)
|
|
|
|
| Repo | Open PRs |
|
|
|------|----------|
|
|
| timmy-config | **0** (was 9 at filing) |
|
|
| fleet-ops | 6 |
|
|

|
| the-nexus | 50 |
|

|
|
## Prevention Measures in Place
|
|
|
|
1. **stale-pr-cleanup.py**: Auto-closes PRs stale >4 days in timmy-config
|
|
2. **pr-capacity.py**: Hard cap of 10 concurrent PRs per repo
|
|
3. **burn-rotation.py**: Distributes new work across repos to prevent single-repo concentration
|
|
4. **Pre-flight check** (`scripts/check-existing-prs.sh`): Blocks creation of duplicate PRs
