This action can be triggered to gather the relevant issue data, make usefully comments with GPT model.
One of the main building blocs is the "sections" every section has at lease a title and prompt parameter,
you can specify which section do you need at the action workflow yml. When the action runs, resolves all selected sections prompts with Openapi GPT model.
The prompts has default values (see: src/config/default-config.ts
) but you can fully customize all of them and create custom sections.
The resulting responses will then be added as a comment to the issue.

Find related issues among open issues.
I have noticed that many open-source projects have few maintainers and a lot of issues. Some issues are duplicates, while others are related to each other. These details are useful to the maintainer. With the assistance of AI, this action will create a "related issues" section in the comment.
Find relevant labels for the issue.
The action will get all the labels and descriptions and issue data, based on that create a label suggession.
Summarize the issue text.
add custom sections to the sections.custom
array within the configuration file.
Summarize all comment at the current issue, make progress report etc.
Occasionally, certain GitHub issues can be overwhelming with an abundance of comments, making it difficult to comprehend the situation. To address this, I have developed a comment summary feature.
If you turn on debug mode, it will do the following: resolve prompts, give you more detailed logs of what's happening, and not create comment.. To enable this, set the debug-mode
input to true
.
If you want to test an action without making changes to any issues, it's useful to turn on debug mode. This will allow you to view the logs and see what comment would be created if debug mode was turned off. Once you're satisfied with the results, you can turn off debug mode.
This action will trigger when new issue is opened, and creates a comment including: related-issues-section, summary-section, label-section, custom-section

All section prompts is fully customisable.
To create custom sections / prompts, simply create a JSON file (location is the config-file
input) and modify the prompts and section titles as desired. This will owerwite the default config (see: src/config/default-config.ts
).
Additionally, you can add new custom sections to the sections.custom
array within the configuration file.
