From dfa4d4234122878b499aea1301970afab5f7de59 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Maxime MICHEL Date: Tue, 22 Sep 2026 11:39:16 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] :green_heart: Stop auto-closing tracked backlog issues 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.
