Feature Request: Automatic Label Creator (@codebot setup-labels)

Summary

Add a @codebot setup-labels command that automatically creates all required repository labels for the AI review system, eliminating a major setup pain point and ensuring auto-labeling works immediately.

What problem does this solve?

Current Problem:
Setting up OpenRabbit has two scenarios:

Scenario 1: Fresh Repository (No Labels)

  • Requires manually creating 10+ labels
  • Time-consuming setup (15-20 minutes)
  • Error-prone manual work

Scenario 2: Existing Label Schema (Like Your Case)

  • Repository already has labels (Kind/Bug, Priority - High, Status - Blocked, etc.)
  • OpenRabbit expects different label names (type: bug, priority: high, etc.)
  • Mapping Problem: Bot can't find existing labels because names don't match
  • Result: Silent auto-labeling failures

Your Current Labels (18 total):

  • Kind/* (Bug, Feature, Enhancement, Documentation, Security, Testing)
  • Priority - * (Critical, High, Medium, Low)
  • Status - * (Abandoned, Blocked, Need More Info)
  • Reviewed - * (Confirmed, Duplicate, Invalid, Won't Fix)
  • Compat/Breaking

User Pain:

  • Silent Failures: If labels don't exist OR names don't match, auto-labeling fails
  • Name Mismatches: Existing "Kind/Bug" ≠ expected "type: bug"
  • Duplicate Labels: Don't want both "Kind/Bug" AND "type: bug"
  • Inconsistent: Different repositories use different naming conventions
  • Manual Mapping: Having to edit config.yml for each repository

Support Burden:

  • "Why aren't labels being applied to my issues?"
  • "I already have labels, why create new ones?"
  • "How do I use my existing label schema?"

User story / Use case

As a repository administrator setting up OpenRabbit,
I want to automatically create all required labels with one command,
so that I don't have to manually create 10+ labels and the bot works immediately.

Example scenario:

  1. Admin adds OpenRabbit workflows to repository
  2. Types @codebot setup-labels in any issue
  3. Bot analyzes existing labels, creates missing ones
  4. Auto-labeling now works for all future issues/PRs
  5. Setup complete in 30 seconds instead of 20 minutes

Proposed solution

Implementation

Add a @codebot setup-labels command that:

  1. Detects existing label schema - Scans repository labels to identify naming patterns (Kind/*, Priority -, type:, etc.)

  2. Offers two modes:

    • Map Mode (Default): Maps existing labels to OpenRabbit schema
    • Create Mode: Creates new OpenRabbit-style labels
  3. Map Mode Flow:

    • Analyzes existing labels (e.g., "Kind/Bug", "Priority - High")
    • Detects pattern (prefix-based: Kind/, Priority -, etc.)
    • Creates mapping in .ai-review.yml repository config
    • No new labels created, uses existing ones
  4. Create Mode Flow:

    • Creates OpenRabbit default labels (type:, priority:, ai-*)
    • Useful for fresh repositories

Example Output: Map Mode (Your Case)

@username

**🔍 Label Schema Detected:**

Found 18 existing labels with pattern: `Prefix/Name` and `Prefix - Name`

**Detected Categories:**
- **Kind/** (6 labels): Bug, Feature, Enhancement, Documentation, Security, Testing
- **Priority -** (4 labels): Critical, High, Medium, Low  
- **Status -** (3 labels): Abandoned, Blocked, Need More Info
- **Reviewed -** (4 labels): Confirmed, Duplicate, Invalid, Won't Fix
- **Compat/** (1 label): Breaking

**📋 Proposed Mapping:**

| OpenRabbit Expected | Your Existing Label | Status |
|---------------------|---------------------|--------|
| `type: bug` | `Kind/Bug` | ✅ Map |
| `type: feature` | `Kind/Feature` | ✅ Map |
| `type: question` | *(missing)* | ⚠️ Create |
| `type: documentation` | `Kind/Documentation` | ✅ Map |
| `priority: high` | `Priority - High` | ✅ Map |
| `priority: medium` | `Priority - Medium` | ✅ Map |
| `priority: low` | `Priority - Low` | ✅ Map |
| `ai-approved` | *(missing)* | ⚠️ Create |
| `ai-changes-required` | *(missing)* | ⚠️ Create |
| `ai-reviewed` | `Reviewed - Confirmed` | ✅ Map (suggested) |

**✅ Setup Complete!**

Created `.ai-review.yml` with label mappings:
```yaml
labels:
  type:
    bug: "Kind/Bug"
    feature: "Kind/Feature"
    documentation: "Kind/Documentation"
  priority:
    high: "Priority - High"
    medium: "Priority - Medium"
    low: "Priority - Low"

🔧 Missing Labels to Create (3):

  • Kind/Question - for question-type issues
  • Status - AI Approved - for AI-approved PRs
  • Status - AI Changes Required - for PRs needing changes

Run @codebot setup-labels --create-missing to create these labels.


### Example Output

```markdown
@username

**Label Setup Analysis:**

**✅ Existing Labels (3):**
- `type: bug` (already exists)
- `priority: high` (already exists)
- `ai-reviewed` (already exists)

**🔧 Missing Labels (7):**
Creating the following labels...

✅ Created `priority: medium` (#fbca04)
✅ Created `priority: low` (#28a745)
✅ Created `type: feature` (#1d76db)
✅ Created `type: question` (#cc317c)
✅ Created `type: documentation` (#0075ca)
✅ Created `ai-approved` (#28a745)
✅ Created `ai-changes-required` (#d73a4a)

**✅ Setup Complete!**
All 10 required labels are now configured. Auto-labeling is ready to use.

**Next Steps:**
- Create a new issue and type `@codebot triage` to test auto-labeling
- Open a PR to test AI review with security scanning

Example: Dry-Run Mode

@codebot setup-labels --dry-run

Response:

**Label Setup Preview (Dry Run):**

**Would create 7 labels:**
- `priority: medium` (#fbca04)
- `priority: low` (#28a745)
- `type: feature` (#1d76db)
- `type: question` (#cc317c)
- `type: documentation` (#0075ca)
- `ai-approved` (#28a745)
- `ai-changes-required` (#d73a4a)

**Would skip 3 labels (already exist):**
- `type: bug`
- `priority: high`
- `ai-reviewed`

Run `@codebot setup-labels` without `--dry-run` to create labels.

Alternatives considered

Alternative 1: CLI Script for Setup

python setup.py create-labels --repo owner/repo
  • Rejected: Requires local clone and CLI access
  • Users prefer in-app setup via issue comments

Alternative 2: Automatic Label Creation on First Use

  • Rejected: Requires elevated permissions silently
  • Better to be explicit and let user trigger setup

Alternative 3: Setup Wizard in Workflow

  • Rejected: Workflows can't create labels (permission issues)
  • Requires bot token with write access anyway

Alternative 4: Manual Instructions in README

  • Status Quo: Current approach, painful
  • Keep as fallback for users who can't use the command

Alternative 5: Per-Repository Config File

.ai-review.yml with label definitions:

labels:
  - name: "priority: high"
    color: "d73a4a"
  • Considered for future: Good for customization
  • Not for initial setup: Still requires manual label creation

Acceptance criteria

  • @codebot setup-labels command creates all required labels
  • Command checks existing labels before creating (no duplicates)
  • Labels created with correct names and colors from config.yml
  • Command reports what was created vs what already existed
  • --dry-run flag shows preview without creating labels
  • Handles permission errors gracefully (clear error message)
  • Works for both Gitea and GitHub
  • Command is idempotent (can run multiple times safely)
  • Response includes next steps for users
  • Documentation updated in README.md
  • Unit tests for label creation logic
  • Integration test with test repository

Backwards compatibility:

  • Existing config.yml format still works (string format)
  • New dict format is optional (for colors/descriptions)
  • No breaking changes to existing workflows

Migration notes:

  • Users with old config.yml can upgrade to new format for color control
  • Old format uses default blue color (#1d76db)

Impact

Complexity: MEDIUM-HIGH

  • Estimated effort: 3-4 hours (increased from 2-3 due to mapping logic)
  • Files modified: config.yml, gitea_client.py, issue_agent.py
  • New API endpoint: POST /repos/{owner}/{repo}/labels
  • New complexity: Pattern detection, fuzzy matching, config file generation
  • Multiple modes (auto, map, create)

User Impact: VERY HIGH

  • Removes biggest setup friction point
  • Works with existing labels - No duplicate labels created
  • Setup time: 20 minutes → 30 seconds (97% reduction)
  • Eliminates silent auto-labeling failures
  • Consistent label setup across all repositories
  • Respects existing naming conventions - Uses Kind/, Priority -, etc.
  • Better onboarding experience

Technical Impact:

  • Requires bot token with repo:write or admin:org permissions
  • Safe operation (idempotent, no data loss risk)
  • Generates .ai-review.yml per-repository config
  • Pattern detection supports multiple naming conventions
  • Easy to test and maintain

Risks:

  • Medium Risk: Pattern detection might not recognize all schemas
  • Mitigation: Dry-run mode for preview, manual mode selection
  • Mitigation: Falls back to create mode if pattern unrecognized
  • Rollback: Labels can be deleted manually if needed

# Feature Request: Automatic Label Creator (@codebot setup-labels) ## Summary Add a `@codebot setup-labels` command that automatically creates all required repository labels for the AI review system, eliminating a major setup pain point and ensuring auto-labeling works immediately. ## What problem does this solve? **Current Problem:** Setting up OpenRabbit has two scenarios: **Scenario 1: Fresh Repository (No Labels)** - Requires manually creating 10+ labels - Time-consuming setup (15-20 minutes) - Error-prone manual work **Scenario 2: Existing Label Schema (Like Your Case)** - Repository already has labels (Kind/Bug, Priority - High, Status - Blocked, etc.) - OpenRabbit expects different label names (`type: bug`, `priority: high`, etc.) - **Mapping Problem:** Bot can't find existing labels because names don't match - **Result:** Silent auto-labeling failures **Your Current Labels (18 total):** - Kind/* (Bug, Feature, Enhancement, Documentation, Security, Testing) - Priority - * (Critical, High, Medium, Low) - Status - * (Abandoned, Blocked, Need More Info) - Reviewed - * (Confirmed, Duplicate, Invalid, Won't Fix) - Compat/Breaking **User Pain:** - **Silent Failures:** If labels don't exist OR names don't match, auto-labeling fails - **Name Mismatches:** Existing "Kind/Bug" ≠ expected "type: bug" - **Duplicate Labels:** Don't want both "Kind/Bug" AND "type: bug" - **Inconsistent:** Different repositories use different naming conventions - **Manual Mapping:** Having to edit config.yml for each repository **Support Burden:** - "Why aren't labels being applied to my issues?" - "I already have labels, why create new ones?" - "How do I use my existing label schema?" ## User story / Use case **As a** repository administrator setting up OpenRabbit, **I want** to automatically create all required labels with one command, **so that** I don't have to manually create 10+ labels and the bot works immediately. **Example scenario:** 1. Admin adds OpenRabbit workflows to repository 2. Types `@codebot setup-labels` in any issue 3. Bot analyzes existing labels, creates missing ones 4. Auto-labeling now works for all future issues/PRs 5. Setup complete in 30 seconds instead of 20 minutes ## Proposed solution ### Implementation Add a `@codebot setup-labels` command that: 1. **Detects existing label schema** - Scans repository labels to identify naming patterns (Kind/*, Priority -, type:, etc.) 2. **Offers two modes:** - **Map Mode** (Default): Maps existing labels to OpenRabbit schema - **Create Mode**: Creates new OpenRabbit-style labels 3. **Map Mode Flow:** - Analyzes existing labels (e.g., "Kind/Bug", "Priority - High") - Detects pattern (prefix-based: Kind/, Priority -, etc.) - Creates mapping in `.ai-review.yml` repository config - No new labels created, uses existing ones 4. **Create Mode Flow:** - Creates OpenRabbit default labels (type:, priority:, ai-*) - Useful for fresh repositories ### Example Output: Map Mode (Your Case) ```markdown @username **🔍 Label Schema Detected:** Found 18 existing labels with pattern: `Prefix/Name` and `Prefix - Name` **Detected Categories:** - **Kind/** (6 labels): Bug, Feature, Enhancement, Documentation, Security, Testing - **Priority -** (4 labels): Critical, High, Medium, Low - **Status -** (3 labels): Abandoned, Blocked, Need More Info - **Reviewed -** (4 labels): Confirmed, Duplicate, Invalid, Won't Fix - **Compat/** (1 label): Breaking **📋 Proposed Mapping:** | OpenRabbit Expected | Your Existing Label | Status | |---------------------|---------------------|--------| | `type: bug` | `Kind/Bug` | ✅ Map | | `type: feature` | `Kind/Feature` | ✅ Map | | `type: question` | *(missing)* | ⚠️ Create | | `type: documentation` | `Kind/Documentation` | ✅ Map | | `priority: high` | `Priority - High` | ✅ Map | | `priority: medium` | `Priority - Medium` | ✅ Map | | `priority: low` | `Priority - Low` | ✅ Map | | `ai-approved` | *(missing)* | ⚠️ Create | | `ai-changes-required` | *(missing)* | ⚠️ Create | | `ai-reviewed` | `Reviewed - Confirmed` | ✅ Map (suggested) | **✅ Setup Complete!** Created `.ai-review.yml` with label mappings: ```yaml labels: type: bug: "Kind/Bug" feature: "Kind/Feature" documentation: "Kind/Documentation" priority: high: "Priority - High" medium: "Priority - Medium" low: "Priority - Low" ``` **🔧 Missing Labels to Create (3):** - `Kind/Question` - for question-type issues - `Status - AI Approved` - for AI-approved PRs - `Status - AI Changes Required` - for PRs needing changes Run `@codebot setup-labels --create-missing` to create these labels. ``` ### Example Output ```markdown @username **Label Setup Analysis:** **✅ Existing Labels (3):** - `type: bug` (already exists) - `priority: high` (already exists) - `ai-reviewed` (already exists) **🔧 Missing Labels (7):** Creating the following labels... ✅ Created `priority: medium` (#fbca04) ✅ Created `priority: low` (#28a745) ✅ Created `type: feature` (#1d76db) ✅ Created `type: question` (#cc317c) ✅ Created `type: documentation` (#0075ca) ✅ Created `ai-approved` (#28a745) ✅ Created `ai-changes-required` (#d73a4a) **✅ Setup Complete!** All 10 required labels are now configured. Auto-labeling is ready to use. **Next Steps:** - Create a new issue and type `@codebot triage` to test auto-labeling - Open a PR to test AI review with security scanning ``` ### Example: Dry-Run Mode ```markdown @codebot setup-labels --dry-run ``` Response: ```markdown **Label Setup Preview (Dry Run):** **Would create 7 labels:** - `priority: medium` (#fbca04) - `priority: low` (#28a745) - `type: feature` (#1d76db) - `type: question` (#cc317c) - `type: documentation` (#0075ca) - `ai-approved` (#28a745) - `ai-changes-required` (#d73a4a) **Would skip 3 labels (already exist):** - `type: bug` - `priority: high` - `ai-reviewed` Run `@codebot setup-labels` without `--dry-run` to create labels. ``` ### Files to Modify #### 1. **`tools/ai-review/config.yml`** Add label schema detection patterns and default mappings: ```yaml labels: # Default OpenRabbit schema (for fresh repos) type: bug: name: "type: bug" color: "d73a4a" # Red aliases: ["Kind/Bug", "bug", "Type: Bug"] # Auto-detect alternatives feature: name: "type: feature" color: "1d76db" # Blue aliases: ["Kind/Feature", "feature", "enhancement", "Kind/Enhancement"] question: name: "type: question" color: "cc317c" # Purple aliases: ["Kind/Question", "question"] docs: name: "type: documentation" color: "0075ca" # Light Blue aliases: ["Kind/Documentation", "documentation", "docs"] priority: critical: name: "priority: critical" color: "b60205" # Dark Red aliases: ["Priority - Critical", "P0", "critical"] high: name: "priority: high" color: "d73a4a" # Red aliases: ["Priority - High", "P1", "high"] medium: name: "priority: medium" color: "fbca04" # Yellow aliases: ["Priority - Medium", "P2", "medium"] low: name: "priority: low" color: "28a745" # Green aliases: ["Priority - Low", "P3", "low"] status: ai_approved: name: "ai-approved" color: "28a745" # Green aliases: ["Status - Approved", "approved"] ai_changes_required: name: "ai-changes-required" color: "d73a4a" # Red aliases: ["Status - Changes Required", "changes-required"] ai_reviewed: name: "ai-reviewed" color: "1d76db" # Blue aliases: ["Reviewed - Confirmed", "reviewed"] # Label schema detection patterns label_patterns: # Detect existing naming conventions prefix_slash: "^(Kind|Type|Category)/(.+)$" # Kind/Bug, Type/Feature prefix_dash: "^(Priority|Status|Reviewed) - (.+)$" # Priority - High colon: "^(type|priority|status): (.+)$" # type: bug ``` **Generated `.ai-review.yml` (per-repository override):** ```yaml # Auto-generated by @codebot setup-labels labels: type: bug: "Kind/Bug" # Maps to existing label feature: "Kind/Feature" question: "Kind/Question" # Will be created docs: "Kind/Documentation" priority: critical: "Priority - Critical" high: "Priority - High" medium: "Priority - Medium" low: "Priority - Low" status: ai_approved: "Status - AI Approved" # Will be created ai_changes_required: "Status - AI Changes Required" # Will be created ai_reviewed: "Reviewed - Confirmed" ``` #### 2. **`tools/ai-review/clients/gitea_client.py`** Add label creation method: ```python def create_label(self, owner: str, repo: str, name: str, color: str, description: str = "") -> dict: """Create a new label in the repository.

**Rejected:** Requires local clone and CLI access - Users prefer in-app setup via issue comments ### Alternative 2: Automatic Label Creation on First Use - **Rejected:** Requires elevated permissions silently - Better to be explicit and let user trigger setup ### Alternative 3: Setup Wizard in Workflow - **Rejected:** Workflows can't create labels (permission issues) - Requires bot token with write access anyway ### Alternative 4: Manual Instructions in README - **Status Quo:** Current approach, painful - **Keep as fallback** for users who can't use the command ### Alternative 5: Per-Repository Config File `.ai-review.yml` with label definitions: ```yaml labels: - name: "priority: high" color: "d73a4a" ``` - **Considered for future:** Good for customization - **Not for initial setup:** Still requires manual label creation ## Acceptance criteria - [x] `@codebot setup-labels` command creates all required labels - [x] Command checks existing labels before creating (no duplicates) - [x] Labels created with correct names and colors from `config.yml` - [x] Command reports what was created vs what already existed - [x] `--dry-run` flag shows preview without creating labels - [x] Handles permission errors gracefully (clear error message) - [x] Works for both Gitea and GitHub - [x] Command is idempotent (can run multiple times safely) - [x] Response includes next steps for users - [x] Documentation updated in README.md - [x] Unit tests for label creation logic - [x] Integration test with test repository **Backwards compatibility:** - ✅ Existing `config.yml` format still works (string format) - ✅ New dict format is optional (for colors/descriptions) - ✅ No breaking changes to existing workflows **Migration notes:** - Users with old `config.yml` can upgrade to new format for color control - Old format uses default blue color (#1d76db) ## Impact **Complexity:** **MEDIUM-HIGH** - Estimated effort: 3-4 hours (increased from 2-3 due to mapping logic) - Files modified: `config.yml`, `gitea_client.py`, `issue_agent.py` - New API endpoint: `POST /repos/{owner}/{repo}/labels` - **New complexity:** Pattern detection, fuzzy matching, config file generation - Multiple modes (auto, map, create) **User Impact:** **VERY HIGH** - Removes biggest setup friction point - **Works with existing labels** - No duplicate labels created - Setup time: 20 minutes → 30 seconds (97% reduction) - Eliminates silent auto-labeling failures - Consistent label setup across all repositories - **Respects existing naming conventions** - Uses Kind/, Priority -, etc. - Better onboarding experience **Technical Impact:** - Requires bot token with `repo:write` or `admin:org` permissions - Safe operation (idempotent, no data loss risk) - Generates `.ai-review.yml` per-repository config - Pattern detection supports multiple naming conventions - Easy to test and maintain **Risks:** - **Medium Risk:** Pattern detection might not recognize all schemas - **Mitigation:** Dry-run mode for preview, manual mode selection - **Mitigation:** Falls back to create mode if pattern unrecognized - **Rollback:** Labels can be deleted manually if needed ## Mockups / examples ### Example 1: Map Mode -

Critical" > high: "Priority - High" > medium: "Priority - Medium" > low: "Priority - Low" > status: > ai_reviewed: "Reviewed - Confirmed" > ``` ``` ### Example 2: Create Missing Labels (After Mapping) ```markdown Admin comment: > @codebot setup-labels --create-missing Bot response: > **🔧 Creating Missing Labels:** > > Following your existing schema (`Kind/Name` and `Status - Name`): > > ✅ Created `Kind/Question` (#cc317c) > ✅ Created `Status - AI Approved` (#28a745) > ✅ Created `Status - AI Changes Required` (#d73a4a) > > **✅ All labels configured!** > Auto-labeling is fully operational. ``` ### Example 3: Fresh Repository (No Existing Labels) ```markdown **Issue #1: Setup OpenRabbit** Admin comment: > @codebot setup-labels Bot response: > @admin > > **🆕 Fresh Repository Detected:** > > No existing labels found. Creating OpenRabbit default schema. > > **🔧 Creating 10 Labels:** > > ✅ Created `type: bug` (#d73a4a) > ✅ Created `type: feature` (#1d76db) > ✅ Created `type: question` (#cc317c) > ✅ Created `type: documentation` (#0075ca) > ✅ Created `priority: high` (#d73a4a) > ✅ Created `priority: medium` (#fbca04) > ✅ Created `priority: low` (#28a745) > ✅ Created `ai-approved` (#28a745) > ✅ Created `ai-changes-required` (#d73a4a) > ✅ Created `ai-reviewed` (#1d76db) > > **✅ Setup Complete!** > Created 10 labels. Auto-labeling is ready to use. ``` ### Example 4: Force Create Mode (Ignore Existing) ```markdown Admin comment: > @codebot setup-labels --mode create Bot response: > **⚠️ Create Mode (Forced):** > > Creating OpenRabbit standard labels alongside your existing labels. > > **🔧 Creating 10 Labels:** > > ✅ Created `type: bug` (#d73a4a) > ✅ Created `type: feature` (#1d76db) > ⚠️ Skipped `type: question` (already exists) > ... etc > > **Note:** You now have both `Kind/Bug` and `type: bug` labels. > Consider using `--mode map` to avoid duplicates. ``` ### Example 5: Dry-Run Preview ```markdown Admin comment: > @codebot setup-labels --dry-run Bot response: > **🔍 Label Setup Preview (Dry Run):** > > **Would map existing labels:** > - `type: bug` → `Kind/Bug` > - `type: feature` → `Kind/Feature` > - `priority: high` → `Priority - High` > ... (10 total mappings) > > **Would create missing labels (3):** > - `Kind/Question` (#cc317c) > - `Status - AI Approved` (#28a745) > - `Status - AI Changes Required` (#d73a4a) > > Run `@codebot setup-labels` without `--dry-run` to apply changes. ``` ## Implementation Plan ### Phase 1: Core Implementation (3 hours) 1. **Update `config.yml`** (30 min) - Add label aliases for auto-detection - Add pattern detection regex - Maintain backwards compatibility 2. **Add API Methods to `gitea_client.py`** (30 min) - `create_label(owner, repo, name, color, description)` - `get_repo_labels(owner, repo)` - Error handling for API failures 3. **Implement Label Schema Detection** (1 hour) - `_detect_label_schema()` - Pattern detection - `_build_label_mapping()` - Fuzzy matching with aliases - `_suggest_label_name()` - Follow detected pattern - Support multiple patterns (Kind/, Priority -, type:) 4. **Implement Command Handlers** (1 hour) - `_command_setup_labels()` - Main entry point - `_setup_labels_map_mode()` - Map existing labels - `_setup_labels_create_mode()` - Create new labels - `_generate_repo_config()` - Generate .ai-review.yml - Mode detection (auto, map, create) ### Phase 2: Testing (1 hour) 1. **Unit Tests** (30 min) - Test `_detect_label_schema()` with different patterns - Test `_build_label_mapping()` fuzzy matching - Test `_suggest_label_name()` pattern following - Test error handling 2. **Integration Test** (30 min) - Test with repository like yours (18 existing labels) - Test fresh repository (no labels) - Test partial setup (some labels exist) - Verify mapping accuracy - Test dry-run mode ### Phase 3: Documentation & Deployment (30 minutes) 1. **Update Documentation** - Add to README.md Quick Start section - Update getting-started.md with mapping examples - Add to @codebot help output - Document `.ai-review.yml` format 2. **Deployment** - Create PR with changes - Review and merge - Test in production with multiple repositories ## Dependencies **Required:** - Bot token with `repo:write` or `admin:org` permissions - Gitea/GitHub API access **Optional:** - None ## Related Issues/PRs - Depends on: #XXX (@codebot help command) - for discoverability - Related to: Milestone 3 - Setup Simplification - Blocks: Auto-labeling features (triage, PR review) - Part of: Quick wins strategy (high value, medium effort) ## Success Metrics **Week 1 after deployment:** - [x] 90%+ of new repositories use `setup-labels` command - [x] Zero "labels not being applied" support questions - [x] Setup time reduced to <1 minute **Month 1 after deployment:** - [x] 100+ repositories set up with automatic labels - [x] Positive user feedback on setup experience - [x] No permission errors reported **Long-term:** - [x] Auto-labeling works on 99%+ of issues/PRs - [x] Consistent label naming across all repositories - [x] Onboarding time reduced by 90% ## Security Considerations **Permissions Required:** - Bot token needs `repo:write` scope minimum - For organization-wide setup: `admin:org` scope **Safety Measures:** - Dry-run mode prevents accidental changes - Idempotent operation (safe to run multiple times) - No label deletion (only creation) - Clear error messages for permission issues **Audit Trail:** - Label creation logged in enterprise audit logs - GitHub/Gitea audit log shows who created labels ## Future Enhancements **v2.0 Features:** - `@codebot remove-labels` - Clean up old/unused labels - `@codebot sync-labels` - Update colors/descriptions - Custom color schemes per organization - Label templates (minimal, standard, comprehensive) **Integration:** - Automatic setup during first workflow run - Setup wizard CLI tool - Terraform/IaC integration for label management ## Checklist - [x] I searched existing feature requests and discussions - [x] This request includes user story and acceptance criteria - [x] Impact assessment completed (MEDIUM complexity, VERY HIGH value) - [x] Implementation plan outlined - [x] Acceptance criteria defined - [x] Success metrics identified - [x] Security considerations documented - [x] Error handling planned - [x] Documentation updates planned --- **Priority:** ⭐ **HIGH** - Critical for setup experience **Milestone:** Milestone 3 - Setup Simplification **Estimated Effort:** 3-4 hours **Value:** VERY HIGH **Complexity:** MEDIUM-HIGH **Risk:** MEDIUM **Key Features:** - 🔍 Automatic pattern detection (Kind/, Priority -, type:) - 🗺️ Smart label mapping with fuzzy matching - ✨ Zero duplicate labels - 🎯 Respects your existing naming conventions - 📝 Generates `.ai-review.yml` config automatically
