Issue Labels

  • good first issue is scoped and newcomer-safe.
  • help wanted is contributor-ready, but may need more context or maintainer review.
  • maintainer-task requires maintainer, operator, or release access and is not externally claimable.

Large changes should start in Discussions before a PR. Do not post provider keys, customer data, private prompts, unredacted production receipts, or live tenant metadata.
