loft-lang org defaults

Shared, defined-once infrastructure for every loft-lang repo — so we never copy workflows/templates/labels into N repos that then drift. (Drift is the re-derivation anti-pattern; see the loft repo's doc/claude/GOALS.md § "the method mirrors the goals".)

Reusable workflows — the fixed-pending-merge lifecycle

The label lifecycle runs off the one Fixes #NNN commit trailer, with the logic held here and each repo opting in via a tiny stub (the stub supplies the event trigger; this repo holds the behaviour):

Reusable workflow	What it does	Stub trigger
.github/workflows/apply-fixed-pending-merge.yml	on a push to a non-main branch, label every issue a commit says it Fixes/Closes/Resolves; warn on bare (#N) mentions	push: branches-ignore: [main]
.github/workflows/strip-fixed-pending-merge.yml	on issue close, remove the label (a closed issue is never "pending merge")	issues: types: [closed]

Together: write Fixes #N → labeled on branch push → GitHub auto-closes on merge to main → label stripped on close. No hand-labeling; multiple actors fix bugs on their own branches concurrently with the tracker staying correct.

Opt a repo in — add two stubs

.github/workflows/fpm-apply.yml:

name: fixed-pending-merge (apply)
on:
  push:
    branches-ignore: [main]
permissions:
  issues: write
jobs:
  apply:
    uses: loft-lang/.github/.github/workflows/apply-fixed-pending-merge.yml@main

.github/workflows/fpm-strip.yml:

name: fixed-pending-merge (strip)
on:
  issues:
    types: [closed]
permissions:
  issues: write
jobs:
  strip:
    uses: loft-lang/.github/.github/workflows/strip-fixed-pending-merge.yml@main

Proven 2026-06-07: the apply logic fires and labels in the loft-lang org context (org Actions default permissions already allow workflow-level issues: write).

Issue templates + labels (org defaults)

.github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/ here serves as the default for any org repo without its own. LABELS.md is the shared label glossary (sev:* / wa:* / area:* / fixed-pending-merge / …).

Conventions

• Where a bug's issue lives — in the repo whose source fixes it (closing keywords auto-close only same-repo). Compiler/runtime → the loft repo; extracted-library code → that library's repo.
• Canonical library repo name — loft-lang/loft-libs-<chunk> (chunk repos group packages: loft-libs-graphics holds graphics / shapes / imaging / gridmesh). Not loft-<pkg>, not the read-only tests/fixtures/libs/ mirror in the loft repo.

Full rationale lives in the loft repo: doc/claude/ISSUE_TRACKING.md, LIBRARY_AUTHORING.md, MOVING.md.
