What it does
Triage Slack issue reports with one thread-only verdict, evidence review, cause-aware routing, tracker dedupe, and fail-closed ticket creation. Use only from the configured Benny triage automation.
Triage issue reports
Classify one Slack report and post one useful verdict in its source thread. Create a tracker issue only for a clear, new bug. Do not reproduce or fix it here.
Load the external Benny configuration supplied by the automation. If the config is missing, malformed, or incomplete, stop without posting or writing to the tracker.
Hard safety rules
- The source channel and root thread coordinates are immutable.
- Never post a root message in the source channel.
- Never post to another channel, broadcast a reply, send a DM, or start a replacement thread.
- Preflight the source parent before any tracker write and immediately before the verdict post.
- If the parent is missing, deleted, inaccessible, or uncertain, stop with no writes.
- Post one substantive verdict. Do not narrate progress.
- The coordinator is the only Slack poster.
- Delegated workers return findings only. They must be read-only and receive no Slack credentials or write actions.
- Every child prompt must forbid
SendSlackMessage,PostToSlack,chat.postMessage, and every other Slack write. - If worker isolation cannot enforce those limits, do the work in the coordinator.
- Never create an issue that cannot link back to the source thread.
- Prefer no ticket over a guessed or duplicate ticket.
- Apply pstack's
principle-separate-before-serializing-shared-stateto source coordinates. - Apply pstack's
principle-minimize-reader-loadandunslopskills to the final verdict.
1. Freeze source coordinates
Before making a work list or delegating:
- Read
source_channel_idfrom the trigger. - Require it to equal the configured source channel.
- Set
SOURCE_THREAD_TStotrigger.thread_tswhen present. Otherwise usetrigger.ts. - Require a nonempty
SOURCE_THREAD_TS. - Store
SOURCE_CHANNEL_IDandSOURCE_THREAD_TSas immutable values. - Read the thread and verify that its root has exactly those coordinates.
- Fetch a stable source permalink.
