This workflow automatically closes inactive issues after a configurable period, which is 5 years of inactivity by default.
Issues are marked with the stale label upon closing.

If the workflow closes an issue that should remain open,
the issue must be manually reopened and the stale label removed to prevent it from being reprocessed.

The following exceptions apply to the workflow:

  • Pull requests are never affected by this workflow
  • Issues with milestones are never closed
  • Issues with an assignee are never closed
  • Issues with labels ref/IP or ref/NC are never closed

The workflow attempts to close ~5 issues per run.
The underlying action works with a credit of GitHub API operations instead of specific issue limits,
so the actual number of issues closed may vary slightly depending on issue state and operations performed.
