Suggested (not linked — for maintainer review)

• Inject runtime parameter values into the agent prompt via ado-script (sanitization at runtime, not compile time) #432 ("Inject runtime parameter values into agent prompt via ado-script") — overlaps both #1286 (compile/ado-script) and execution-context work; could fit under #1286 once scope is confirmed.
• feat: align FrontMatter fields with gh-aw schema — run-name, labels, metadata, tracker-id, source, strict #451 ("align FrontMatter fields with gh-aw schema") — frontmatter grammar change, could belong under #1286; held off as it may warrant its own parent once the gh-aw schema alignment scope is clearer.
• feat: built-in PR context precomputation for PR-triggered agents #860 ("built-in PR context precomputation for PR-triggered agents") — already implemented (referenced as issue #860 in AGENTS.md); if still open it may just need closing rather than linking.
• compile: directory argument silently no-ops instead of auto-discovering or erroring #867 ("compile: directory argument silently no-ops") — standalone CLI usability bug with no clear parent cluster.
• debug: v0.31.1 compiler emits different YAML than committed *.lock.yml files from #861, breaking integrity check #866 ("v0.31.1 emits different YAML than committed lock files") — isolated debug/regression issue.
• 🔴 Red Team Audit — High: Shell injection via runtimes.lean.toolchain #855 ("Red Team: shell injection via runtimes.lean.toolchain") — sole security finding, no cluster; may warrant its own parent if more security audit items surface.

Observations

• Workflow failure noise is high. Parent #1285 now has 9 sub-issues, all from recurring rate-limit or failure incidents across multiple agentic workflows. The root issue is AI-credits exhaustion — fixing budget or retry logic upstream would close a large fraction of the backlog.
• MCPG/safe-output surface is the most active bug area. Parent #1321 received 7 new sub-issues spanning MCPG Docker wiring, env passthrough, image resolution, and three distinct safe-output tool bugs.
• Compiler refactor work is well-grouped. Parent #1286 now has #237, #384, #987, and #1081 — four complementary pieces of the same pipeline-generation cleanup effort.
• Remaining orphans (e.g. #1222 TLA+ runtime, #253 config overrides, #647 test gap analysis, #793/#13 detection/no-op run tracking, chore recompile issues #1156/#1041/#1027) are each small and distinct; no new parent was justified.
