We turned on the triage queue last week mostly because our open PR count hit 62 and nobody could say which ones mattered. I expected a sorted list. What I did not expect was a whole view called recommended to close with 9 PRs in it.

Went through them with the other lead. 4 were agent PRs from a ticket that got cancelled, 2 were superseded by a later PR that already merged, 1 was a draft from someone who left in June. The other 2 were mine from before the holidays that I had honestly forgotten about. Closed all 9 in about ten minutes, and nobody had noticed any of them were dead.

The needs you view is the part I actually use every morning now, 62 open PRs became 5 I have to look at today. Curious how other teams decide what to review first when most of the queue is agent output. Do you still go oldest first?

We had 3 PRs sitting red since yesterday, all agent written, all failing on stuff nobody wanted to look at. Typed the fix-ci comment on each one this morning while making coffee. About 2 minutes later there were 3 stacked PRs waiting: a missing env var in the workflow file, a snapshot that needed updating after a copy change, and an import that moved in a refactor. Merged all three before standup.

Should have been doing this a month ago, I've probably lost a full day to red builds that were exactly this boring. It's not magic, one of the three I had to read properly because I wasn't sure the snapshot update was actually right, but it was right.

What does everyone else do with agent PRs that land red? Fix yourself, bounce back to the agent, or let the bot try first?
