Phase 1: Fix consistency issue - agentic-wiki-coder.md and agentic-wiki-writer.md were in workflows/ without matching docs/ pages or README entries. Added docs pages and README entries for both workflows. Phase 2: Add issue-arborist workflow (adapted from github/gh-aw). Automatically organizes issues by detecting parent-child relationships and linking related issues as GitHub sub-issues. Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

Phase 1: Consistency Fix
Two workflow files were missing corresponding docs pages and README entries:
workflows/agentic-wiki-coder.md→ addeddocs/agentic-wiki-coder.md+ README entryworkflows/agentic-wiki-writer.md→ addeddocs/agentic-wiki-writer.md+ README entryBoth are now listed in the README under "Code Improvement Workflows (by making changes, producing pull requests)".
Phase 2: New Workflow Proposal
Issue Arborist 🌳
Source:
github/gh-aw/.github/workflows/issue-arborist.mdActivity in Peli's Agent Factory: Created 77 discussion reports and 18 parent issues to group related sub-issues. Not a direct-PR workflow (it links sub-issues rather than creating code changes), so no traditional merge rate applies — but it shows consistent, sustained activity over many runs.
Why it's valuable: Every active repository accumulates issues that are naturally related — implementation tasks for the same feature, bugs from the same root cause, work items that share a theme — but nobody takes time to manually link them as parent-child relationships. The Issue Arborist finds this hidden structure automatically, making it easier to understand scope, track progress, and close epics cleanly. It requires no configuration and works for any repository regardless of language or framework.
Generalization plan:
imports: shared/jqschema.md(gh-aw utility for JSON schema generation; not needed for core functionality)create-discussionaudit reports (required discussions with an "audits" category; replaced with noop for no-action runs)link-sub-issueandcreate-issuesafe outputs (the core value)codextocopilot(more general default)Proposed name:
