Cleanup: Duplicate Labels and PRs from Issue-Poller Loop

Project

paper-dynasty-database on git.manticorum.com

What Was Cleaned Up

Duplicate PRs

Closed PRs #36, #37, #39 (created by the infinite loop). Left open:

• PR #35 — real fix for issue #25
• PR #38 — fix for issue #24

Duplicate Repo Labels

Deleted 8 duplicate labels:

• 4 extra ai-working labels (IDs 49, 41, 56, 58)
• 4 extra ai-reviewing labels (IDs 51, 59, 57, 50)

These were created because Haiku kept calling create_repo_label instead of checking for existing labels first.

Root Cause of Duplicates

The Haiku-based label creation did not search existing labels before creating. Each poll cycle created new label entries.

Prevention

The ensure_label() helper function in the rewritten poller searches existing labels first and only creates if missing:

ensure_label() {
  local name="$1"
  local color="$2"
  # Search existing labels, create only if not found
  existing=$(gitea_get "/repos/$OWNER/$REPO/labels" | jq -r ".[] | select(.name==\"$name\") | .id")
  if [ -z "$existing" ]; then
    gitea_post "/repos/$OWNER/$REPO/labels" "{\"name\":\"$name\",\"color\":\"$color\"}"
  fi
}
