Summary

The Close inactive issues workflow (close-issues.yml) marks an issue stale after 21 days of inactivity and closes it 7 days after that. Every issue in the current backlog — the audit findings and deferred OpenAPI-depth issues spun out of epic #72 — has already been auto-closed once and manually reopened, and #72 itself is on the same path. The 7-day close window is fighting deliberately-parked, still-relevant work rather than surfacing genuinely abandoned issues.

What changed

days-before-issue-close set from 7 to -1. Issues still pick up the stale label after 21 days of inactivity (so genuinely dead issues remain visible as stale, and the exempt-assignee allowlist still applies), but nothing closes automatically.

Verification

Config-only change to a scheduled GitHub Actions workflow — no build/test impact. detektFull (repo pre-commit hook) passed.

The stale-issue workflow closes issues 7 days after marking them
stale. Every issue in the current backlog (audit findings, deferred
OpenAPI depth issues spun off epic #72) has already been auto-closed
once and manually reopened - the 7-day close window is fighting
deliberately-parked, still-relevant work rather than surfacing
genuinely abandoned issues.

Set days-before-issue-close to -1: issues still get the stale label
after 21 days of inactivity (so genuinely dead issues remain visible
as stale), but nothing closes automatically.
