Notes From Original Meeting

Background Context

• Badges bot needs to be implemented
• years of bot need buildup
• we need to figure out how we can implement bots for the org
• need to reduce maintainer burden

Identify the processes/areas where bots can improve Node.js

• Automatically comment on Node.js core PRs when CI fails, with CI failure info
• Automatically opening backport PRs for review
• When flaky tests fail, automatically comment that the failing tests are flaky
• Moderation tooling - adding
• respond with relevant intro information to new issues, first issues, first PRs, etc.
• Badges bot to assign badges to users
• Surface old issues or PRs

A lot of what we want to do has already been built with Probot:

• https://github.com/search?q=topic%3Aprobot-app&type=Repositories

Identify how we can begin implmenting bots
