Pull Request Overview

This PR adds automation for generating weekly status updates from GitHub issues and pull requests. The solution uses a Python script that queries GitHub's APIs (GraphQL for Projects v2 and REST for labels/issues) to collect items completed last week and items planned for next week, formatting them into a Markdown document.

Key changes:

New Python script to generate status reports from GitHub issues/PRs with flexible data source options (Projects v2, labels, or issue state)
Production workflow that runs weekly on Mondays and saves the output as an artifact
Development workflow for testing changes via PR comments and manual runs

The path filter references 'weekly_confluence_markdown.py' but the actual script is named 'weekly_status_markdown.py'. This will prevent the workflow from triggering when the script is modified.

.github/workflows/weekly-update-dev.yml

+
+          OUTPUT_PATH: artifacts/weekly_status.md
+        run: |
+          python scripts/weekly_confluence_markdown.py | tee /tmp/out.md


The script path is incorrect. It should be 'scripts/weekly_status_markdown.py' instead of 'scripts/weekly_confluence_markdown.py'.

Copilot · 2025-10-24T18:43:42Z

scripts/weekly_status_markdown.py

+
+    out_path = os.environ.get("OUTPUT_PATH")
+    if out_path:
+        os.makedirs(os.path.dirname(out_path), exist_ok=True)


This will fail if out_path has no directory component (e.g., just a filename). When os.path.dirname(out_path) returns an empty string, os.makedirs('') raises an error. Add a check: if dir_path := os.path.dirname(out_path): os.makedirs(dir_path, exist_ok=True)

Suggested change

os.makedirs(os.path.dirname(out_path), exist_ok=True)

if dir_path := os.path.dirname(out_path):

os.makedirs(dir_path, exist_ok=True)

scripts/weekly_status_markdown.py

+    # Plans: open items that were updated in the last week (showing active work)
+    plans = [it for it in inprog_items if it.get("state") == "open" and updated_recent(it, days=7)]


The filter checks it.get('state') == 'open' but the 'state' field is only populated in the state-based approach (line 374), not when using Projects v2 or label-based queries. This will incorrectly exclude all items when using Projects v2. Remove the state check or ensure the state field is always populated.

Suggested change

# Plans: open items that were updated in the last week (showing active work)

plans = [it for it in inprog_items if it.get("state") == "open" and updated_recent(it, days=7)]

# Plans: items that were updated in the last week (showing active work)

plans = [it for it in inprog_items if updated_recent(it, days=7)]
