Pull request overview
Refactors the repository’s AI issue triage automation to only post issue comments/labels (no branch creation, no PR creation), and to re-run on subsequent issue comments to refine the triage when new information arrives.
Changes:
- Extend the triage workflow to trigger on
issue_comment: created(while avoiding PRs and avoiding loops on the agent’s own comments). - Update the triage prompt to enforce “comments only” output and to support follow-up runs that may stay silent if nothing changed.
- Remove the PR-based “Copilot review response” workflow and its prompt; update setup docs accordingly.

| File | Description |
|---|---|
| .github/workflows/issue-triage-agent.yml | Adds issue_comment trigger and refines gating so triage runs on labeled issues + follow-up comments without creating PRs. |
| .github/workflows/copilot-review-response.yml | Deletes the PR-review-response workflow now that triage no longer creates PRs. |
| .github/prompts/issue-triage.md | Updates the agent instructions to be comments-only and adds follow-up-run behavior for new issue comments. |
| .github/prompts/copilot-review-response.md | Deletes the PR-review-response agent prompt. |
| .github/ISSUE_TRIAGE_AGENT.md | Updates documentation to reflect the new comments-only triage flow and setup requirements. |
Address Copilot review: GitHub operations (read issue, comment, label) now use the workflow-scoped GITHUB_TOKEN governed by the permissions block, limiting the PAT's blast radius. The PAT is used solely for Copilot model auth. Docs updated to drop the unneeded repository PAT permissions.
