View and manage the triage queue using the loop CLI. Accept issues into the backlog or decline them.

Triage

The triage command group lets you view the triage queue and act on pending issues. Issues enter triage when signals are ingested, and must be accepted or declined before they enter the work pipeline.

loop triage

List all issues with triage status.

loop triage

Showing 3 of 3 issues

loop triage accept

Accept a triage issue into the backlog. This sets the issue status to backlog.

loop triage accept <id>

Arguments

Argument	Description
`id`	Issue ID (CUID2)

Example

loop triage accept clx8iss2uea3bcd4efg5hijk

Sample output

Issue clx8iss2uea3bcd4efg5hijk accepted into backlog

loop triage decline

Decline a triage issue by setting its status to canceled. An optional reason can be provided, which is saved as a comment on the issue.

loop triage decline <id> [reason]

Arguments

Argument	Description
`id`	Issue ID (CUID2)
`reason`	Optional reason for declining (saved as a comment)

Examples

Decline without a reason:

loop triage decline clx8iss2uea3bcd4efg5hijk

Decline with a reason:

loop triage decline clx8iss2uea3bcd4efg5hijk "Duplicate of issue #32"

Sample output

Issue clx8iss2uea3bcd4efg5hijk declined

When a reason is provided, a comment is posted on the issue with authorName: loop-cli before the issue is marked as declined. If the comment fails to save, a warning is printed but the decline still succeeds.

Typical triage workflow

# 1. Check the triage queue
loop triage

# 2. Inspect a specific issue
loop issues view clx8iss2uea3bcd4efg5hijk

# 3. Accept it into the backlog
loop triage accept clx8iss2uea3bcd4efg5hijk

# Or decline with a reason
loop triage decline clx9xyz... "Not actionable — transient network blip"
