Quick-score an enhancement, bug, or feedback item using the impact-first triage framework. Creates an issue if approved.
Planning Triage
Quick-score an item and determine its disposition.
Input
$ARGUMENTS
The item to triage (bug report, feature request, user feedback, competitor feature).
Process
1. Understand the Item
Parse the input to identify:
- Type: Bug, Feature, Enhancement, Competitive Response
- Description: What is being requested or reported
- Context: Why it matters (user impact, competitive pressure, etc.)
2. Score
Apply the impact-first scoring framework:
Score = (Impact + Urgency) / Effort
| Factor | 1 | 2 | 3 | 4 | 5 |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Impact | No effect on users | Minor convenience | Moderate engagement | Significant daily value | Critical for adoption/retention |
| Urgency | Someday/nice-to-have | Next quarter | This month | This week | Today/blocking |
| Effort | Multi-week project | ~1 week | ~2-3 days | ~hours | ~minutes |
3. Rate Each Factor
For each factor, provide the score (1-5) and brief justification.
4. Calculate and Interpret
Score = (Impact + Urgency) / Effort
>= 3.0 -> IMMEDIATE ACTION
1.5-3.0 -> BACKLOG
< 1.5 -> DEFER
5. Disposition
If IMMEDIATE (>= 3.0):
- Create issue with High/Urgent priority (based on issue_tracker.provider in config)
- If feature: recommend
/coco:planning-session tactical - If bug: recommend creating hotfix branch
If BACKLOG (1.5-3.0):
- Create issue with Normal priority
- Tag for next operational planning session
If DEFER (< 1.5):
- Document the rationale
- Do NOT create an issue
- Note for quarterly strategic review
