What's Wrong?

The github actions on this repo tags tickets as stale, then closes them as "not planned" two weeks later if no additional comments are made. However, simply tagging an issue does not send an email to the issue's author or participants which would allow them to react to the supposed stale-ness before the issue is automatically closed.

What Should Happen?

Your github actions bot should comment on an issue to the effect of "this issue will be closed in two weeks unless someone reacts to this message or leaves an additional comment", giving the author/participants a chance to prevent the issue from being prematurely closed if it is in fact still an issue.
