bonedigger — agent donation flow#
Load when working on the agent donation fast-track: the special issue flow that auto-approves agent work requests without requiring manual triage.
What it is#
The agent donation flow is a fast-track path for submitting AI agent work requests via GitHub Issues. An issue tagged with the donation marker bypasses standard triage and lands directly in the queue with the labels needed for downstream lifecycle automation.
Use it to request agent work against any repo, issue, or PR in the Bluefin ecosystem.
How to trigger it#
Create a GitHub Issue in a bonedigger-enabled repo with this line anywhere in the body:
Workflow: Agent Donation
The bonedigger workflow detects this marker on issues: opened and applies the fast-track labels.
Flow detection and label assignment#
The lifecycle action parses the issue body for URLs to determine the flow type:
| Issue body contains | Flow label applied |
|---|---|
Workflow: Agent Donation only | flow/project-report |
Workflow: Agent Donation + a PR URL (/pull/N) | flow/pr-review |
Workflow: Agent Donation + an issue URL (/issues/N) | flow/issue-review |
Labels applied automatically#
On detection, the action applies:
status/approvedstatus/queuedflow/agent-donation- one of
flow/project-report,flow/pr-review,flow/issue-review
bonedigger only performs the fast-track labeling. Any follow-on widget rendering, queue movement, or slash-command handling is now owned by projectbluefin/common/.github/workflows/lifecycle.yml.
Agent labels reference#
| Label | Meaning |
|---|---|
agent/blocked | Blocked — needs human input before work can continue |
needs-human/agent-oops | Agent error — humans only |
hold | Intentionally held — do not automate |
do-not-merge | Do not merge or automate this item |
Notes for agents working donated issues#
- The
flow/label tells the agent what kind of work is expected (project report, PR review, issue review) - Always check for
agent/blockedorholdlabels before starting work - When stuck, add
agent/blockedand leave a comment explaining what human input is needed - Do not remove
do-not-mergeorholdlabels — these are set by humans intentionally
