Claude Code has over 5000 open issues. And this is after issues that are inactive for 60 days being auto closed. Such a policy is facetious to say the least. What is more perplexing is why they don't use Claude to triage the issues?

This is about some issues are closed incorrectly due to a bug.
But as for the policy itself, why not? If an issue is inactive for 60 days it's very likely to stay so forever.

Keeping an issue open is not going to force a maintainer to care. If they want to close the issue it is likely because they don’t care and getting them to care is not a UI/UX problem. Even if the issue is left open, it is likely not getting prioritized on internal roadmaps and discussions.

At scale this works: If the issue is affecting enough user base, the issue will still be in the list.

Yeah, it only checks whether the last bot comment is older than 30 days, completely ignoring any human comment
if (botCommentDate < oneMonthAgo) {
// Close the issue - it's been stale for 60+ days
