# Triage issue reports

1. Normalize the report into product area, environment, steps, expected behavior, observed behavior, frequency, and supplied evidence.
2. Search for duplicates and known limitations when issue/search capabilities exist.
3. Inspect the relevant code/feature map enough to judge plausibility without making edits.
4. Classify as confirmed-enough-to-reproduce, needs-reporter-information, duplicate, expected behavior, or currently untriageable.
5. Reply in the source thread/ticket when available with concise rationale and the next action. Do not invent a reproduction.
