Bug Triage

A weekly hour that prevents bugs from drowning your roadmap.

We'll add these tasks after you sign up. Free, no credit card.

How it works

Bugs accumulate faster than they get fixed. This template runs a 60-minute weekly triage (severity sort, ownership, fix or defer, post-mortem of last week) so the queue stays survivable.

What you get (5 tasks)

  • Sort bugs by severity (critical, high, medium, low)high~15m
    #triage
  • Assign ownership for every critical bughigh~10m
    #triage
  • Decide fix-now vs defer for each high-severity bughigh~20m
    #triage
  • Close stale bugs older than 90 dayslow~10m
    #triage
  • Post-mortem: any critical bug fixed last weekmedium~15m

    What, why, what would have caught it earlier? One paragraph each.

When to use this

  • Solo developers managing user-reported bugs
  • Small engineering teams without a formal triage rotation
  • Anyone whose bug list has crept past 30 open items
  • Building a habit of post-mortems on critical fixes
