A sample family of reusable GitHub Agentic Workflows.

Make software maintenance enjoyable! From basic issue triage to Repo Assist - a powerful triage multi-task backlog burner, issue labeller, bug fixer and general repository assistant. Other workflows help gate your repository.

• 🏷️ Issue Triage - Triage labelling of issues and pull requests and not much more
• 🤖 Repo Assist - A regular, pervasive all-tools repository assistant that triages issues, investigates issues, replies with comments, fixes bugs, proposes engineering improvements, and maintains activity summaries
• 🛡️ AI Moderator - Automatically detect and moderate spam, link spam, and AI-generated content
• 🐝 Hive Issue Triage - Manually dispatched, report-only issue triage with deterministic admission and Hive classification before engine judgment (community - maintained in hivecommons/hive; installation requires its companion admission script and classifier)

Investigate faults proactively and improve CI.

• 🏥 CI Doctor - Monitor CI workflows and investigate failures automatically
• 🚀 CI Coach - Optimize CI workflows for speed and cost efficiency
• 💰 Cost Tracker - Post per-run agent spend summaries on pull requests using token-usage.jsonl from gh-aw's firewall
• 🔍 Log Watcher - Diagnose agent run failures by scanning logs for errors, retry loops, rate limits, and token anomalies, then posting a health report on the associated PR or issue (community - maintained in AgentMeter/agentmeter-action)

• 🗜️ Documentation Unbloat - Automatically simplify documentation by reducing verbosity while maintaining clarity
• 📝 Markdown Linter - Run Markdown quality checks on all documentation files and get a prioritized issue report of violations
• 📱 Daily Multi-Device Docs Tester - Test documentation sites across mobile, tablet, and desktop viewports for responsive layout and interaction issues

These workflows analyze the repository, code, and activity to produce reports, insights, and recommendations for improvements. They do not make any changes to the codebase directly but can be used as input for maintainers to take action.

• 🔍 Daily Accessibility Review - Review application accessibility by automatically running and using the application
• 🔎 Daily Adhoc QA - Perform adhoc explorative quality assurance tasks
• 🗂️ Large File Simplifier - Identify the largest source file and create a detailed refactoring plan as an issue

• ✨ Code Simplifier - Automatically simplify recently modified code for improved clarity and maintainability
• 🔍 Duplicate Code Detector - Identify duplicate code patterns and suggest refactoring opportunities
• 🧪 Daily Test Improver - Improve test coverage by adding meaningful tests to under-tested areas
• ⚡ Daily Perf Improver - Analyze and improve code performance through benchmarking and optimization
• 🌱 Daily Efficiency Improver - Improve energy efficiency and computational footprint across code, data, network, and UI
• 📊 Repository Quality Improver - Daily rotating analysis of repository quality across code, documentation, testing, security, and custom dimensions

These workflows are triggered by specific "/" commands in issue or pull request comments, allowing for on-demand agentic assistance. Only maintainers or those with write access can trigger these workflows by commenting with the appropriate command.

You can use the "/plan" agent to turn the reports into actionable issues which can then be assigned to the appropriate team members or agents.

• 📊 Archie - Generate Mermaid diagrams to visualize issue and pull request relationships with /archie command
• 📋 Plan Command - Break down issues into actionable sub-tasks with /plan command
• 🏥 PR Fix - Analyze failing CI checks and implement fixes for pull requests
• 🔍 Repo Ask - Intelligent research assistant for repository questions and analysis

• 🔍 Daily Malicious Code Scan - Scan recent code changes for suspicious patterns indicating malicious activity or supply chain attacks
• 🔒 VEX Generator - Auto-generate OpenVEX statements for dismissed Dependabot alerts, capturing security assessments in a machine-readable format

• 🔬 Lean Squad - Progressively apply Lean 4 formal verification to your codebase: research targets, extract specs, write Lean propositions, translate implementations, and attempt proofs — finding bugs or issuing stamps of confidence

• 🔧 Q - Workflow Optimizer - Expert system that analyzes and optimizes agentic workflows

• 👾 Issue Monster - Automatically assign issues labeled cookie to the Copilot coding agent every 30 minutes
• 🔒 Sub-Issue Closer - Automatically close parent issues when all their sub-issues are complete
• 🌳 Issue Arborist - Automatically organize issues by linking related issues as parent-child sub-issues

Shared workflow fragments are reusable building blocks that can be imported into other workflows using imports: [shared/name.md]. They provide pre-configured tools, MCP servers, and setup steps.

• arXiv - Access arXiv research papers: search, get paper details, and retrieve PDFs
• MarkItDown - Convert PDFs, Word documents, PowerPoints, HTML, and other formats to Markdown
• Microsoft Docs - Access Microsoft's documentation via learn.microsoft.com

• FFmpeg - Install and use FFmpeg for video/audio processing (extract audio, frames, scene detection, etc.)
• sq - Install and use sq for querying structured data (CSV, Excel, JSON, SQL databases) with jq-like syntax

• Formatting - Standard content structure with overview and collapsible details sections
• Reporting - Guidelines for reporting workflow run information with clickable run ID links

While The Agentics focuses on engineering workflows, agentic workflows are equally powerful for product, operations, compliance, and leadership teams. Agentics Beyond Code is a companion collection built for non-engineering roles — no coding required. A few highlights:

• Launch Readiness Checker — Monday morning readiness report across all launches: completeness, risk, blockers, and sign-offs
• Compliance Review — automated evaluation against Security, Privacy, Accessibility, and Responsible AI rubrics, with per-team status reports
• Weekly Status — Friday rollup of What Shipped, What We Learned, FYIs, and SOSes across all initiatives, ready for leadership
• Leadership Briefs — personalized Monday briefings per leader, with Give Kudos, Give Feedback, and Get Involved sections tailored to each person's domain and management style
• Process Analyzer — weekly retro that detects process drift between transcripts and how-we-work docs, surfaces automation gaps, and proposes update PRs
• Adversarial PM — weekly grumpy challenge of the team's most consequential decisions, arguing against them using pre-mortem, reversibility, and opportunity cost lenses
• Decision Log — scans issue comments and meeting transcripts to create structured decision records
• GTM Content — generate and refresh changelog drafts and public roadmap items following org voice & tone guidelines

Keep your agentic workflows up to date with the latest features and improvements:

gh extensions upgrade github/gh-aw # Update cli extension
gh aw upgrade  # Upgrade to latest gh aw engine version
gh aw update   # Update added workflows

This automatically updates agent files, applies codemods, updates actions versions, and recompiles all workflows.

The Copilot CLI samples use GitHub read tools and proxy-aware curl for external references instead of the unsupported native web-fetch tool. The accessibility sample uses its existing Playwright browser. Fetches must respect the configured network allowlist and TLS verification; report blocked requests instead of bypassing these controls.

To validate changes, run the same checks as CI, including both workflow directories:

python3 -m unittest discover -s tests -p 'test_repo_assist_*.py'
gh aw compile --verbose
gh aw compile --workflows-dir workflows --verbose
