Goal Add a Hermes Issue Triage example so Hermes covers another L1 pattern beyond daily triage. Files examples/hermes/issue-triage.md (new) examples/hermes/README.md (link it) examples/README.md (fill Issue Triage × Hermes cell) Acceptance criteria Week-one: propose labels/priority only — no auto-apply or close Map Hermes scheduling + delivery (--deliver local default) State schema matches issue-triage pattern Follow tone of examples/hermes/daily-triage.md Estimated time: ~40 minutes Comment "I'll take this" to get assigned.
Goal Share an honest Issue Triage week-one story — win or failure — so others know how to run label-only automation safely. Files New stories/<your-slug>.md Update stories/README.md Acceptance criteria Tool + schedule (cron, /loop, GitHub Action, etc.) Week-one constraints: propose labels only, no auto-close, human gate One surprise (good or bad) What you would change before week two Actionable lesson (one paragraph) Estimated time: ~15–30 minutes · same-day review Comment I'll write this → PR → link here.
Goal If you run a loop from this repo (or adapted from it), add yourself to the adopters wall. Fast path (~10 min) Open Add Adopter Fill project, pattern(s), tool, level (L1/L2), notes Maintainers merge the row to docs/adopters.md (same-day when possible) PR path Add a row to docs/adopters.md: Project | Pattern(s) | Tool | Level | Notes Optional polish npx @cobusgreyling/loop-audit . --badge Paste the badge into your project README.
