Duplicate issue signal

Check whether a new issue describes the same problem as one of a few similar issues found by search.

F@f

Problem

Search finds similar titles, but similar isn't the same. Maintainers compare issues by hand, and duplicates spread discussion across threads.

Goal

Suggest a likely duplicate to the reporter and maintainers, leaving the decision to close to a person.

Input / state

The new issue and the top candidates from your similarity search.

new_issue
Title and body of the new issue.
candidates
Up to five open issues from search, with titles and summaries.

Decision question

NoulQuestion key is_duplicate

Does the new issue describe the same problem as one of the candidates?

What counts as yes and no

  • trueSame symptom and conditions as a candidate, even if worded differently.
  • falseA different problem, even if it touches the same feature.

Allowed outcomes

Decided in your code from the answer and its confidence. Thresholds are yours to set and test.

  • Suggest duplicateProbability of yes is above your upper threshold.
  • UnclearProbability falls between your two thresholds.
  • Not a duplicateProbability of yes is below your lower threshold.

Example scenarios

Predefined demonstrations. No model is called; the outcome shown is an illustrative judgment.

Example state

{
  "new_issue": "App crashes saving 'notes ๐Ÿ“.md'",
  "candidates": [
    "#812 Crash when filename contains emoji"
  ]
}

Outcome

Illustrative
Suggest duplicate

Probability of yes is above your upper threshold.

Why

Same symptom and trigger.

Using it well

  • Retrieval finds candidates; this question only compares. Keep the candidate list short.
  • Comment with the suggested duplicate; let a maintainer or the reporter close it.
