## Summary
Replaces the Python `propscheck.py` validation script with TypeScript
code that:
- Uses a testable validator module (`lib/properties-validator.ts`)
- Has comprehensive unit tests (71 tests in
`test/properties-validation-tests.ts`)
- Integrates with the existing property loading infrastructure
- Runs as part of the normal test suite
## Changes
- **New validator module** (`lib/properties-validator.ts`):
- Raw file validation: duplicate keys, empty list elements, typos,
suspicious paths
- Orphan detection: compilers, groups, formatters, tools, libraries
- Cross-file duplicate compiler ID detection
- Disabled allowlist support (`# Disabled: id1 id2`)
- Invalid property format detection (leverages `parseProperties()` with
new `collectErrors` option)
- Missing compilers list detection for language files
- **Property library enhancement** (`lib/properties.ts`):
- Added `collectErrors` option to `parseProperties()` for structured
error collection
- **New npm script**: `npm run test:props` for quick property validation
- Set `CHECK_LOCAL_PROPS=true` to include `.local.properties` files
- **Updated references**:
- CI workflow no longer calls propscheck.py
- Pre-commit hook uses `npm run test:props`
- CE Properties Wizard uses the new validation
- **Removed**: `etc/scripts/util/propscheck.py` and `propschecktest.py`
## Test plan
- [x] All 71 unit tests pass
- [x] Integration tests validate real config files
- [x] `npm run test:props` works standalone
- [x] CE Properties Wizard validation works
- [x] CI passes

## Summary
Implements automated detection of potential duplicate issues using
GitHub Actions.
## Implementation Details
- Uses `wow-actions/potential-duplicates@v1` action
- Triggers on issue `opened` and `edited` events
- Configured with **90% similarity threshold** to minimize false
positives
- Automatically adds `potential-duplicate` label and comment with links
to similar issues
## Rationale for 90% Threshold
Based on manual testing with the `gh_tool` CLI:
- 85% threshold produced too many false positives from template-based
matches
- True duplicates typically have 90%+ similarity
- Uses Damerau-Levenshtein distance algorithm (same as manual tool)
## Testing
- ✅ YAML syntax validated
- ✅ Pre-commit hooks passed (lint + ts-check)
- ✅ Created `potential-duplicate` label in repository
- Manual testing of similar configuration showed good results at 90%
threshold
## Dependencies
- Depends on #8166 (add-gh-tools-cli branch) being merged first
- This PR adds the automation layer on top of the manual tooling

This PR adds a new Python CLI tool for automating GitHub repository
management tasks.
## Overview
The initial implementation provides duplicate issue detection using text
similarity analysis. This is the first step toward automating repository
triage tasks.
## Features
- **Click-based CLI** with subcommands for future extensibility
- **find-duplicates command** for detecting duplicate issues using text
similarity
- Uses **gh CLI** for GitHub API access (no token management needed)
- Text similarity using `difflib.SequenceMatcher` (ratio-based
algorithm)
- Configurable similarity threshold (default: 0.6)
- Progress bar for long-running comparisons
- Age filtering support (`--min-age` parameter)
- Standard Python src-layout with **uv** for dependency management
- **Comprehensive test suite** with pytest (integrated into CI)
## Project Structure
```
etc/scripts/gh_tool/
├── src/gh_tool/ # Main package
│ ├── cli.py # Click-based CLI interface
│ └── duplicate_finder.py # Core duplicate detection logic
├── tests/ # Test suite
│ └── test_duplicate_finder.py
├── docs/ # Documentation
│ ├── TRIAGE-CRITERIA.md # Triage guidelines from manual review
│ └── PHASE1-FINDINGS.md # Historical analysis of 855 issues
├── pyproject.toml # Package configuration
└── README.md # Usage documentation
```
## Usage
```bash
cd etc/scripts/gh_tool
uv sync
uv run gh_tool find-duplicates /tmp/report.md
```
**Options:**
- `--threshold FLOAT` - Similarity threshold 0-1 (default: 0.6)
- `--state {all,open,closed}` - Issue state to check (default: open)
- `--min-age DAYS` - Only check issues older than N days (default: 0)
- `--limit INTEGER` - Maximum number of issues to fetch (default: 1000)
- `--repo TEXT` - GitHub repository in owner/repo format (default:
compiler-explorer/compiler-explorer)
**Example:**
```bash
# Find high-confidence duplicates in open issues
uv run gh_tool find-duplicates /tmp/report.md --threshold 0.85
# Check all issues older than 30 days
uv run gh_tool find-duplicates /tmp/report.md --state all --min-age 30
```
## Testing
The tool includes comprehensive test coverage:
- Unit tests for similarity calculation
- Integration tests for duplicate detection
- Edge case handling (transitive grouping, age filtering, threshold
sensitivity)
- Report generation validation
**Run tests:**
```bash
cd etc/scripts/gh_tool
uv run pytest -v
```
Tests are integrated into CI and run on every push.
## Documentation
- **`README.md`**: Complete usage guide with examples
- **`docs/TRIAGE-CRITERIA.md`**: Comprehensive triage guidelines
developed during manual review of 22+ issues
- **`docs/PHASE1-FINDINGS.md`**: Historical analysis context from
initial 855 issue review
## CI Integration
The tool is integrated into the GitHub Actions workflow:
- `uv` is installed via `astral-sh/setup-uv@v6`
- Tests run automatically on every push
- Ensures tool remains functional as codebase evolves
## Next Steps
Future enhancements planned for follow-up PRs:
- GitHub Action for automatic duplicate detection on new issues
- Additional automation tools (upstream health checker, label validator,
etc.)
- Automated triage reports
## Changes in this PR
- ✅ Core duplicate detection implementation
- ✅ Comprehensive test suite (192 lines)
- ✅ CI integration
- ✅ Complete documentation
- ✅ Example triage criteria and findings

There's nothing special with these anymore. They are the same both
locally and in CI now, because our Vitest and Biome setups don't behave
differently there

This pr fixes the failing labeler action labeling pull requests, which
was probably broken by renovate when upgrading the action from v4 to v5.
I wasn't able to test the configuration, but let's hope it works.

- Update the actions in the GitHub Actions workflows to their latest versions.
- Run the workflows on the latest versions of the platforms where appropriate.
- Set the `check-latest` field of the `actions/setup-node` action to `true` to use the latest release of the specified Node.js version instead of using the cached one when there's a new release available.
- Explicitly specify the action versions instead of using the `latest` tag.
Latest cypress:
- updated all the tests
- fixed up warnings
- got rid of isolation stuff, it's now isolated by default
- added simple docs
- added `--noLocal` to prevent any local config from screwing up when
testing locally
- store screenshot artifacts if things go wrong
- Renames orphancompiler.py script to propscheck.py, the name fits better
- Fixes Go props to make them easier to maintain
- Alphabetically sorts some listings in the code
- Adds tests to the props checker script (No idea how to integrate those so it's manual for now)
- Adds 2 missing limit cases for Motd filtering
