# extract_issues.py: Triage Log Parser

## Location
`~/.config/claude-scheduled/extract_issues.py`

## Purpose
Parses backlog-triage JSON logs to find actionable issues for the issue-dispatcher.

## Logic
1. Extracts "Suggested Focus" section from triage output
2. Matches `repo#number` patterns via regex
3. Validates against known repos in `repos.json` to filter false positives
4. Filters out PRs (`type=pr`) — only returns issues, not PRs

## False Positive Fixes
Initially caught false positives like "close #18" or "Merge #29" as issue references. The `repos.json` validation step was added to prevent this.
