Triage Workflow

Step 1: Read Issue Details

Extract key information:

- Issue type: [BUG] / [FR] / [?]
- FiftyOne version reported
- Code to reproduce
- Error message/traceback
- Related module/feature

Step 2: Search Codebase

# Search for related code
grep -r "keyword" fiftyone/
grep -r "ClassName" fiftyone/core/

# Find the module mentioned in issue
find fiftyone/ -name "*.py" | xargs grep -l "function_name"

Step 3: Check Git History

# Recent commits related to issue
git log --oneline --since="2024-01-01" -- fiftyone/path/to/module.py

# Search commit messages
git log --oneline --grep="keyword"

# Check if specific function was modified
git log -p --all -S "function_name" -- "*.py"

# Blame specific lines
git blame fiftyone/path/to/file.py -L 100,120

Step 4: Check Related PRs/Issues

# Search closed issues
gh issue list --repo voxel51/fiftyone --state closed --search "keyword"

# Search PRs
gh pr list --repo voxel51/fiftyone --state merged --search "keyword"

Step 5: Categorize and Respond

Based on findings, select category and use appropriate response template.
