| # Label Governance Stabilisation Workstream | ||
|
|
||
| ## Why This Is Next | ||
|
|
||
| This is the highest-impact follow-on after PR #428 because label hygiene and policy enforcement directly affect issue triage quality, automation routing, and reporting fidelity across the whole repository. | ||
|
|
||
| Live anchors on 2026-05-27: | ||
|
|
||
| - #95 `🏷️ Orphan Labels Detected (30)` | ||
| - #66 `[Workflows/Docs] Canonical labels + org seeding workflow` | ||
| - #67 `[Workflows] Scope README regen to changed paths with concurrency guard` | ||
| - #69 `[Workflows] Enforce CodeRabbit before Copilot on PRs` | ||
|
|
||
| ## Outcome | ||
|
|
||
| Create a single, issue-first execution pack that: | ||
|
|
||
| - Reduces orphan labels to zero or a justified minimal set. | ||
| - Aligns canonical labels and seeding automation. | ||
| - Prevents noisy or racing README updates. | ||
| - Enforces PR review ordering policy at workflow level. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Structure | ||
|
|
||
| - `issues/parents/` parent epic draft | ||
| - `issues/children/batch-00-triage/` orphan-label audit and remediation plan | ||
| - `issues/children/batch-01-execution/` execution tasks mapped to open issues | ||
| - `issue-posting-and-linking-plan.md` posting order and linking map | ||

| # Posting and Linking Plan | ||
|
|
||
| ## Ordering | ||
|
|
||
| 1. Open the parent epic from `issues/parents/01-epic-label-governance-stabilisation.md`. | ||
| 2. Update existing issue #95 with the triage checklist from `batch-00-triage`. | ||
| 3. Update existing issue #66 with the canonicalisation checklist. | ||
| 4. Update existing issue #67 with the concurrency and path-scoping checklist. | ||
| 5. Update existing issue #69 with the review-order enforcement checklist. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Linking Map | ||
|
|
||
| - Parent epic -> #95, #66, #67, #69 | ||
| - #95 blocks #66 because canonical clean-up needs current orphan evidence. | ||
| - #66 and #67 can run in parallel after #95 triage output is confirmed. | ||
| - #69 can run in parallel with #66/#67 if workflow ownership is available. | ||
|
|
||
| ## Closeout Criteria | ||
|
|
||
| - All four linked issues closed. | ||
| - Labeling automation and docs validations pass locally. | ||
| - Workstream summary added to changelog/release notes if policy-visible. |

| ## Audit Summary | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| Use issue #95 as the source tracker to produce a current orphan-label inventory, classify each orphan as keep/merge/remove, and define zero-regression remediation steps. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| ## Scope Checklist | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| - [ ] Export latest orphan label set with evidence. | ||||||
| - [ ] Categorise each orphan: rename, merge, retain, or remove. | ||||||
| - [ ] Identify workflow/docs dependencies for each impacted label. | ||||||
| - [ ] Produce a patch order that avoids breaking active automations. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| ## Acceptance Criteria | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| - [ ] #95 contains an up-to-date inventory and decision table. | ||||||
| - [ ] Follow-on execution tasks are linked and sequenced. | ||||||
| - [ ] No label removal is executed without replacement mapping where needed. | ||||||

| ## Task Summary | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| Execute the canonical label policy and seed workflow updates tracked in #66, based on the orphan-label decisions from #95. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| ## Implementation Checklist | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| - [ ] Align canonical label definitions and docs. | ||||||
| - [ ] Update seeding workflow for deterministic sync behaviour. | ||||||
| - [ ] Add guardrails for missing or deprecated labels. | ||||||
| - [ ] Validate workflow and docs commands locally. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| ## Acceptance Criteria | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| - [ ] #66 reflects final canonical label contract. | ||||||
| - [ ] Seeding workflow applies canonical set consistently. | ||||||
| - [ ] Validation commands pass with no schema or lint regressions. | ||||||

||||||
| ## Task Summary | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| Implement the #67 workflow hardening so README regeneration only runs where changes require it and avoids concurrent run conflicts. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| ## Implementation Checklist | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| - [ ] Restrict trigger paths to relevant docs or metadata files. | ||||||
| - [ ] Add concurrency key and cancel-in-progress policy where appropriate. | ||||||
| - [ ] Ensure skip logic still preserves required updates. | ||||||
| - [ ] Validate workflow behaviour with representative file-change scenarios. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| ## Acceptance Criteria | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| - [ ] #67 documents final trigger scope and concurrency policy. | ||||||
| - [ ] No duplicate/conflicting README writes in concurrent PR activity. | ||||||
| - [ ] Existing docs validation and generation still succeed. | ||||||

| ## Task Summary | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| Implement the review-order policy from #69 so workflow and documentation clearly enforce CodeRabbit checks before Copilot-assisted flows where required. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| ## Implementation Checklist | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| - [ ] Define exact enforcement point (status checks, workflow gates, or both). | ||||||
| - [ ] Update workflow logic and contributor-facing docs. | ||||||
| - [ ] Add validation to detect policy drift. | ||||||
| - [ ] Confirm policy behaviour on a sample PR. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| ## Acceptance Criteria | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| - [ ] #69 has an explicit and testable enforcement mechanism. | ||||||
| - [ ] Policy wording and workflow behaviour are aligned. | ||||||
| - [ ] Regression risk is documented for teams using existing PR templates. | ||||||

| ## Epic Summary | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| Stabilise label governance by resolving orphan labels, enforcing canonical label definitions, and hardening workflow policies that consume label metadata. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| ## Linked Stories/Tasks | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| - #95 Orphan labels audit and remediation | ||||||
| - #66 Canonical labels and seeding workflow | ||||||
| - #67 README regeneration scoping and concurrency guard | ||||||
| - #69 CodeRabbit-before-Copilot review order enforcement | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| ## Acceptance Criteria | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| - [ ] Orphan label set is remediated and documented. | ||||||
| - [ ] Canonical label source of truth and seeding workflow are aligned. | ||||||
| - [ ] README regeneration automation is scoped to changed paths and race-safe. | ||||||
| - [ ] Review order policy is codified and validated in workflows. | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| ## Dependencies / Blockers | ||||||
|
|
||||||
| - Needs current inventory output from #95 before final canonical cleanup. | ||||||
| - Requires workflow validation in CI-compatible local commands. | ||||||
|
|
||||||

Since this workstream involves reducing orphan labels and defining remediation/migration steps, please ensure that any resulting label migration maps and notes are documented in the central
/docs/MIGRATION.mdfile to ensure contributors can follow migration rules across the repository.References
