Issue & PR Event Workflows

Issue and PR event workflows run automatically when specific GitHub events occur. They’re ideal for automated triage, intelligent labeling, code analysis, and quality checks that happen without any manual trigger.

When to Use Event-Triggered Workflows

• Immediate response: Auto-triage new issues, welcome contributors
• Automated analysis: Accessibility audits, security scans
• Smart labeling: Classify issues/PRs based on content
• Quality gates: Run checks when PRs are opened or updated
