We should describe what steps the triaging process entails. Here is a flowchart I proposed during KubeCon NA 2024, which I think can serve as inspiration:

flowchart TD
  Start{Check validity}
  Start -->|Valid| Enrich[Tag OS, platform,<br> signal, good first issue]
  Start --> |Invalid| Transfer[Close or ask<br> for transfer]
  Start -->|Unclear| WaitingAuthor[Tag <pre>waiting-for:author</pre>]
  Enrich --> Classify{Classify}
  Classify -->|<pre>documentation</pre>| WaitingCodeowners[Tag as <pre>waiting-for:codeowners</pre>]
  Classify -->|<pre>enhancement</pre>| WaitingCodeowners
  Classify -->|<pre>bug</pre>| EnrichBug[Tag with <pre>bug:perf/crash</pre> <pre>workaround:yes/no</pre> <pre>release:blocker</pre>]
  EnrichBug --> WaitingCodeowners
Loading

The idea would be to describe the steps (and, possibly, a flowchart), so that new triagers can follow this process.
