• Keep trackers clean by cleaning out stale pull requests/issues
• Help reviewers focus by tagging WIP pull requests
• Tighten review loop by notifying when PRs need immediate attention
• Move issues between projects

CP-8 can:

• Close stale issues with no activity
• Add a WIP label to PRs with "[WIP]" in title
• Notify in specified Slack channel when:
  • a new (non-WIP) PR is opened
  • a WIP PR is "un-WIPped"
  • a :recycle: comment is posted
  • a PR is approved/has changes requested
  • a PR is blocking other PRs signified by having [Blocker] in the title
• Automatically add new issues to projects

• Install GitHub app

Add .cp8.yml file to root of project, and turn on features by configuring them:

stale_issue_weeks: 4 # Set stale issue cutoff to 4 weeks
review_channel: reviews # Send review requests/updates to specified Slack channel
project_column_id: 49 # Automatically add new issues to a project column

Your GitHub username needs to be mapped to your Slack ID in order for CP8 to mention you:

• Copy your Slack ID from your account settings
• Submit a PR to this repo to add [github_name]:[slack_id] to /lib/user_mappings.yml. See, for example, this PR)

CP8 has a CLI counterpart, that while not required, provides some extra convenience for GitHub-driven projects in addition to what the bot offers.
