The automatic Claude code based labeling is super useful. I'd love to use it in my own projects. However, attempting to do so fails as the actions don't appear to be designed to be reusable. Using github's uses: with this repository fails as the actions require the contents of this repo to work (dockerfile etc)
I'm quite possibly doing it wrong too, but having a separate published GitHub action would be super useful in other open source projects.

Looks like this might have been released: https://docs.anthropic.com/en/docs/claude-code/github-actions
EDIT: ah, no that's something slightly different
it's fairly close iiuc! it's just that + an instruction to select labels and add them to the issue with the
ghcli...Hey @mattgodbolt ! We actually just released our official GitHub Action for Claude Code. You can see an example of how to use it for issue triage right here. We also have a new Claude GitHub app that's built on top of it that lets you @-mention Claude in an issue or PR to have Claude work on your behalf, which you can learn more about here. Would love for you to try it out and let us know what you think!
If this isn't what you're looking for, please let us know as well!
Thanks both!
I guess I was hoping to reuse most (if not all) of the boilerplate stuff from the code. Given the license I wasn't sure I could use any of the prompt from
claude-codeBUT the cluade code base action example is MIT ! So I think I can use that! Thank you!
