description: The daily sweep of this repo: prunes merged branches, closes spent signal issues and empty milestones, and lists what is stale. Use when asked what housekeeping did, why a branch or issue was closed, how to run the sweep by hand, or what to do with the stale list.

# Housekeeping
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Deterministic: `.github/time/housekeeping.py` decides, never a model. Every step is idempotent, so a second run finds nothing to do.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Trigger
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- `housekeeping.yml`: daily, a jittered minute after the Astra tick (13:13 UTC), and `workflow_dispatch`. It runs
|
||
|
|
`python3 .github/time/housekeeping.py` with the heartbeat's env, as the `time` user.
|
||
|
|
- `TIME_MODE=live` makes it act. Anything else (the default) is a dry run: it prints `would delete ...` / `would close ...`
|
||
|
|
in the run log and changes and comments nothing.
|
||
|
|
- By hand: Actions → housekeeping → Run workflow, or locally with `GITHUB_REPOSITORY`, `GITHUB_TOKEN`, `TIME_TOKEN` set.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## What the sweep does
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. **Branches.** Deletes every branch whose PR merged into the default branch (`time/card-*`, `ceo/*`, `labs/*`, anything
|
||
|
|
with a merged PR; merges made through the MCP keep their head branch, Time's own merges delete it). Never the default
|
||
|
|
branch, `gh-pages`, a protected branch, a branch with an open PR, or a branch that has commits after its merge.
|
||
|
|
2. **Signal issues.** Closes `signal` issues ("want the next version?") older than `TIME_VENTURE_MEASURE_DAYS` (default 7)
|
||
|
|
whose venture has no signups: no 👍 from a person and no early-access issue for its slug. One closing line names the count.
|
||
|
|
Issues with signups are left to the venture loop.
|
||
|
|
3. **Milestones.** Closes milestones with no open issues and at least one closed one. An empty, never-used milestone stays.
|
||
|
|
4. **Stale list.** No action, one comment on the Astra log (#57): `needs-human` untouched for over 3 days, open PRs idle
|
||
|
|
7 days or more, cards parked after their automatic retries, `error` cards older than 2 days. An empty list posts no comment.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Each run ends with one line on the Astra log: branches deleted, issues closed, milestones closed, stale count. A step that
|
||
|
|
fails is logged and the others still run; the job exits 1.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## What the steward does with the stale list
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Housekeeping never acts on it. Read it on #57 once a day and for each entry either:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- **`needs-human` card or PR:** decide it (merge, close, or comment `/time retry` to send it back to the worker) and remove the label.
|
||
|
|
- **Idle PR:** merge it, push it, or close it. A PR nobody wants closes; its branch goes at the next sweep.
|
||
|
|
- **Parked card:** read why it stopped, fix the card (smaller, clearer `DONE:`) or close it.
|
||
|
|
- **`error` card:** comment `/time retry`, or close it if the error is not worth another try.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## The workflow
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The workflow file is the CEO's merge. It is the heartbeat's job with this step in place of `time.py heartbeat`:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
```yaml
|
||
|
|
name: housekeeping
|
||
|
|
on:
|
||
|
|
schedule:
|
||
|
|
- cron: "17 13 * * *" # a few minutes after the Astra tick (13:13)
|
||
|
