+## (Optional) Agentic Metrics — Weekly Report
+
+Every Sunday a `📊 Agentic Pulse` issue is created automatically in your repository with agentic-specific insights no off-the-shelf tool provides:
+
+- **Orphan issues** — open 14+ days with no linked PR (forgotten or blocked work)
+- **PR merge time trend** — week-over-week comparison (flow acceleration or slowdown)
+- **Rework rate** — PRs merged without extra commit sessions (agent or human first-shot rate)
+- **Unlinked PRs** — merged without `Closes #N` (traceability gaps)
+- **Stage Residence Time** — included automatically if your team uses `stage:*` labels _(Milestone 2)_
+
+The issue appears in your GitHub notifications automatically — zero extra setup, zero extra secrets.
+
+**To activate:**
+
+1. Copy the workflow to your repository:
+   ```bash
+   cp .agentic-pdlc/templates/.github/workflows/agentic-metrics.yml .github/workflows/agentic-metrics.yml
+   ```
+
+2. Commit and push. The first pulse runs next Sunday, or trigger it manually:
+   ```bash
+   gh workflow run agentic-metrics.yml
+   ```
+
+> **No additional secrets needed.** The workflow uses the standard `GITHUB_TOKEN` and creates a `metrics:weekly` label automatically on first run.

+### 0. [FIRST] Issue Type Identification
+
+**Run before anything else — before `stage:exploration`, before reading code.**
+
+Reading the issue title and body for type inference is exempt from the `stage:exploration` requirement: it is metadata already present in the request, not code reading or skill invocation.
+
+1. Check if issue already has a `type:*` label (`type:us`, `type:task`, `type:bug`, `type:spike`) → if yes, skip to Section 0.1.
+2. Read issue title + body (metadata only — no code reading at this step).
+3. Classify using these rules:
+   - `type:task` — operational change, config, rename, docs update, non-functional (no user-facing behavior change)
+   - `type:bug` — something broken that should work
+   - `type:spike` — research/evaluation spike, never reaches Development
+   - `type:us` — new feature, behavioral change, anything product-facing
+4. Confidence ≥ 85% → add inferred label: `gh issue edit <N> --add-label "type:<inferred>"`
+5. Confidence < 85% → default to `type:us`: `gh issue edit <N> --add-label "type:us"`
+
+**Type drives the PDLC flow:**
+
+| Type | Flow |
+|---|---|
+| `type:us` | Full flow: exploration → brainstorming → Gate 1 → detailing → approval |

If a user provides a malicious repository URL or branch name containing shell metacharacters (e.g., `; rm -rf /`), they could execute arbitrary shell commands. It is highly recommended to use `spawnSync` with an arguments array to avoid shell interpretation, or at least sanitize and quote the inputs strictly.",
