I think they should expand the scope to direct contribution for easy issues (right now Oscar seems mostly for surfacing project information to contributors), I've had a lot of luck using aider + sonnet for direct contribution, and I'm pretty sure you could do it at scale for "getting-started" issues.

Dear god I want off Mr Bone's Wild Ride. I can't wait for even more pull request spam, now fully automated.


The ride never ends.

I think it's good that they're focusing on all the not-code parts of contributing, as you say there are other projects for code contributions.


We also tried to implement a GH Issue to PR workflow in patchwork - https://github.com/patched-codes/patchwork

It is a bit hard to get it to work reliably except for small changes.
