Dosu's hosted Auto-Labeling for GitHub issues and pull requests retires on September 1, 2026. This includes automatic issue and pull request labeling, learning from label corrections, PR size labels, the LGTM label, and auto-merge labels.
Choose a replacement#
| Previous Dosu behavior | Replacement | What changes |
|---|---|---|
| Label new issues | Turn on Label issues in Pullfrog, or install dosu-ai/auto-label | Pullfrog runs labeling as a hosted automation. Auto Label runs in your own GitHub Actions on a model you choose. Both use labels that already exist in your repository. |
| Label new pull requests and learn from corrections | Install dosu-ai/auto-label | Auto Label stores corrections on a memory/auto-label branch in your repository, where you can inspect or reset them. |
Add PR size, LGTM, and auto-merge labels | Install the companion workflow from dosu-ai/auto-label | The companion workflow uses pull request metadata instead of a model, so it uses only GitHub Actions minutes. |
Migrate#
Follow Migrating from Dosu to Pullfrog for the full handoff, including Pullfrog's issue-answering settings and the open source replacement workflows.
If you install a replacement before September 1, turn off Auto-Label Issues, Auto-Label Pull Requests, Add Size Labels, and Add LGTM Label in the Dosu Agent so two systems do not label the same item. On September 1, Dosu stops running these hosted automations and removes the controls.
You do not need to remove the Dosu GitHub App. Removing it also disconnects the GitHub features you may still use, including issue and discussion answers and documentation updates proposed on pull requests.
