4. Policy Issues Filed

Issue #378 (timmy-config):

Title: [MUDA] SOUL.md exists in 3 repos with divergent content

Problem: SOUL.md exists in three repositories with different content:

• timmy-home: 9306 bytes
• timmy-config: 9284 bytes
• the-nexus: 5402 bytes

Recommendation: Use timmy-home as single source of truth.

Issue #379 (timmy-config):

Title: [POLICY] Prevent agents from approving zero-change PRs

Problem: Agents were approving PRs with 0 changed files (zombie PRs).

Solution: Implement pre-review guard in orchestrator.

Tools Created

1. Duplicate PR Detection Script

File: scripts/cleanup-duplicate-prs.sh

Purpose: Automated detection and cleanup of duplicate open PRs.

Features:

• Groups PRs by issue number or title similarity
• Identifies duplicate PRs for the same issue
• Closes older duplicates with explanatory comments
• Supports dry-run mode for testing

Usage:

# Dry run (default)
./scripts/cleanup-duplicate-prs.sh

# Actually close duplicates
./scripts/cleanup-duplicate-prs.sh --close

2. Analysis Document
