   Update the small-problem-fixer prompt to skip issues whose author_association is not OWNER/MEMBER/COLLABORATOR, then recompile the lock file so scheduled runs focus on maintainer-reported work.

   Recommendation
   Add an explicit author-association filter after issue_read in the small-problem-fixer workflow prompt (and regenerate the compiled lock file) so only maintainer-authored issues can be selected.

   Findings

   • .github/workflows/gh-aw-small-problem-fixer.md:87-103 defines the candidate issue searches and only says to issue_read each candidate, with no author-association filter.
   • .github/workflows/gh-aw-small-problem-fixer.lock.yml:295-308 contains the same search instructions, so prompt changes need a recompile.
   • The repo already standardizes the allowed association list (OWNER, MEMBER, COLLABORATOR) for trusted triggers in SECURITY.md:17-35 and claude-workflows/issue-triage/ro/example.yml:21-22.

   Verification

   Not run (triage-only analysis; no runtime behavior to validate).

   Detailed Action Plan

   1. Update .github/workflows/gh-aw-small-problem-fixer.md around Step 1/2 (lines 87-105) to require that each candidate’s issue_read response has author_association in OWNER, MEMBER, or COLLABORATOR before considering it.
   2. Recompile workflows (make compile) so .github/workflows/gh-aw-small-problem-fixer.lock.yml reflects the new prompt text (current instructions at lines 295-308).
   3. (Optional) If you want the same restriction elsewhere, review other issue-sourcing workflows that use github-search_issues and decide whether to apply the same author filter.

   PR opened: Filter small-problem-fixer issues by author association.

   Changes: added an author-association allowlist after issue_read in github/workflows/gh-aw-small-problem-fixer.md (L102-L103) and the compiled copy in github/workflows/gh-aw-small-problem-fixer.lock.yml (L310-L311).

   Testing: make lint.

   Note: please move the updated files into .github/workflows/ and run make compile (not run here because it writes to .github/workflows/).
