Triage Workflow

Triage Workflow

This workflow is intended to keep roadmap items moving without over-ceremony.

From intake to delivery

flowchart TD
    intake[Work item intake] --> triage[Triage + categorize]
    triage --> estimate[Estimate effort + dependencies]
    estimate --> prioritize[Prioritize for a delivery window]
    prioritize --> assign[Assign an owner]
    assign --> review[Review for feasibility + scope]
    review --> shipped[Plan for Shipped]
    review --> defer[Defer/decline with reasoning]

Practical guidelines

• Prefer small, demonstrable increments that can be shipped independently.
• If a work item blocks others, ensure dependencies are explicitly recorded during Estimate.
• When a roadmap item moves to Shipped, capture the “what changed” summary so it can be surfaced in release notes.
