Summary

  • Increased default interaction interval from 60 to 300 seconds (5 minutes) to reduce polling frequency
  • Fixed GitHubStorage.GetIssues() timestamp tracking bug that caused reprocessing of the same timeframes repeatedly
  • Added processed item tracking to prevent duplicate actions on issues and pull requests
  • Ensured only one trigger processes each issue to prevent conflicts

Problem

The bot was sending excessive messages due to:

  1. Aggressive polling: 60-second intervals were too frequent
  2. Timestamp bug: The lastIssue timestamp wasn't updated when no new issues were found, causing the same timeframes to be repeatedly processed
  3. No duplicate prevention: Issues and PRs were processed repeatedly without tracking what had already been handled
  4. Multiple trigger execution: Multiple triggers could act on the same issue causing redundant actions

Solution

  1. Increased polling interval: Changed default from 60 to 300 seconds (5 minutes)
  2. Fixed timestamp logic: Always update lastIssue to current time to prevent reprocessing
  3. Added deduplication: Track processed issues/PRs using HashSet with unique keys (repo#number)
  4. Single trigger per issue: Added break statement to ensure only one trigger processes each issue

Test plan

  • Verify code compiles successfully
  • Confirm reduced default polling frequency
  • Test in production environment to verify reduced message frequency
  • Monitor for any missed legitimate triggers
