# Triage annotation protocol

The Issue Triage integration preserves HTML comments in Issue bodies. Automation
clients may use an `AGENT_ACTION` annotation to attach a structured request for
the Agent:

```text
<!-- AGENT_ACTION {"tool":"label_issue","label":"bug"} -->
```

The annotation body is a JSON object. `tool` names an Agent tool and remaining
fields are tool-specific arguments. The triage result, labels and diagnostic
messages are posted as a public Issue reply.

This protocol document describes the public integration format only; it does
not grant additional permissions.
