Action Summary
This GitHub Action automates the process of managing stale issues and pull requests by identifying those with no activity for a specified period, labeling them as “Stale,” and closing them after a further period of inactivity. It helps maintain cleaner repositories by reducing the clutter of inactive issues and PRs, while also allowing for reactivation if activity resumes. Key capabilities include customizable time thresholds, automated labeling, commenting, and closing of stale items.
