Suggested Actions for Maintainer

Comprehensive list of all pending actions requiring maintainer attention (excludes items already actioned and checked off).

• Review PR [repo-assist] fix: surface FSI evaluation errors to stderr by default in FsiEvaluator #1242: Surface FSI evaluation errors to stderr by default — fixes silent failures during --eval (closes Can't load native library in literate script #685) — Review — CI passing
• Review PR [repo-assist] Support top-level (seealso) XML doc tags in API docs #1264: Support top-level <seealso> XML doc tags in API docs (closes Top-level <seealso> #1256) — Review — CI passing
• Review PR [repo-assist] perf: use HashSet for culture-code lookup in processFolder #1241: Use HashSet for culture-code lookup in processFolder (performance improvement) — Review — CI passing
• Review PR [Repo Assist] fix: make code tooltip interactive — allow mouse to enter tooltip to select/copy text #1130: Interactive tooltips (allow mouse to enter tooltip to select/copy text) — Review — CI passing
• Review PR [repo-assist] docs: describe Literate scripts as a lightweight doc-testing mechanism #1267: docs — describe Literate scripts as a lightweight doc-testing mechanism (addresses Exposure of Literate as doc test utility #1221) — Review — draft, currently "blocked" (likely needs rebase/conflict resolution), no CI checks reported
• Review PR [repo-assist] perf: avoid sprintf overhead for no-arg format strings in HtmlFormatting #1271: perf — avoid sprintf overhead for no-arg format strings in HtmlFormatting.fs — Review — draft, no CI checks reported yet
• Review PR [repo-assist] Fix front-matter parsing truncating values containing colons #1275: fix front-matter parsing truncating values containing colons — Review — draft, mergeable_state "blocked", no CI checks reported yet
• Review PR (new this run): deps — bump Ionide.ProjInfo to 0.75.0 and NUnit3TestAdapter to 6.3.0 — supersedes Dependabot PRs Bump Ionide.ProjInfo from 0.74.2 to 0.75.0 #1273 and Bump NUnit3TestAdapter from 6.2.0 to 6.3.0 #1268, build/tests verified locally
• Apply deps bundle manually [repo-assist] deps: bundle dependency updates (Aug 2026) #1240: FSharp.Data 8.2.0, G-Research.FSharp.Analyzers 0.23.0, fsharp-analyzers 0.37.2, gh-aw-actions 0.84.0 — push was blocked by workflow file protection — View
• Dependabot PR Bump github/gh-aw-actions/setup from 0.86.2 to 0.87.4 #1270 (gh-aw-actions/setup 0.86.2 → 0.87.4): check CI status before merging.
• Close Dependabot PRs Bump NUnit3TestAdapter from 6.2.0 to 6.3.0 #1268, Bump Ionide.ProjInfo from 0.74.2 to 0.75.0 #1273 once the new deps-bump PR above is merged.

(Note: Suave 2.6.2 → 3.4.6 bump was already merged as PR #1272, migrated to the Task-based Suave 3 API — the previously-flagged Dependabot PR #1269/breaking-change concern is now resolved.)

Future Work for Repo Assist

• Continue investigation of issue Group overloaded methods together and generate a page for them #585 (group overloaded methods) — complex feature
• Continue investigation of issue Consider different docs for different TFMs #1064 (multi-TFM docs) — complex feature
• Check whether PR [repo-assist] docs: describe Literate scripts as a lightweight doc-testing mechanism #1267 and [repo-assist] Fix front-matter parsing truncating values containing colons #1275 need a rebase to clear their "blocked" mergeable state
• Look for additional documentation and performance improvements

Run History

2026-09-03 00:22 UTC — Run

• 🔧 Created PR: deps — bump Ionide.ProjInfo 0.74.2→0.75.0 and NUnit3TestAdapter 6.2.0→6.3.0 (supersedes Dependabot PRs Bump Ionide.ProjInfo from 0.74.2 to 0.75.0 #1273, Bump NUnit3TestAdapter from 6.2.0 to 6.3.0 #1268). Build + 12/12 fsdocs-tool.Tests + 368/368 FSharp.Markdown.Tests passing.
• 🔍 Task 4 (Engineering Investments): verified Suave 3.4.6 migration already merged (Bump Suave from 2.6.2 to 3.4.6 #1272), resolving the previously-flagged breaking-change concern for the old Suave Dependabot PR.
• 🔍 Task 3 (Issue Fix): reviewed Group overloaded methods together and generate a page for them #585, Consider different docs for different TFMs #1064, Can't load native library in literate script #685 — all remain large architectural asks or already covered by open PR [repo-assist] fix: surface FSI evaluation errors to stderr by default in FsiEvaluator #1242; no new fixable issue found.
• 🔍 Task 2 (Issue Comment): reviewed open issues — all already have adequate Repo Assist engagement; no new human activity found warranting a fresh comment.
• 📝 Updated this Monthly Activity issue.

2026-08-31 — Run

• 🔧 Created PR [repo-assist] perf: avoid sprintf overhead for no-arg format strings in HtmlFormatting #1271: perf — replace sprintf "<pre><code>" (no format args) with a plain string literal in HtmlFormatting.fs (hot rendering path, 3 call sites). Build + 368/368 FSharp.Markdown.Tests passing.
• 🔍 Task 8 (Performance): reviewed markdown/API-doc codebase for algorithmic hotspots (list-append patterns, List.length in loops, partitionUntil); found no other safe, measurable win this run beyond the sprintf fix.
• 🔍 Task 3 (Issue Fix): no new fixable bug/help-wanted/good-first-issue found — Can't load native library in literate script #685 already covered by open PR [repo-assist] fix: surface FSI evaluation errors to stderr by default in FsiEvaluator #1242; Group overloaded methods together and generate a page for them #585/Consider different docs for different TFMs #1064 remain large architectural asks unsuitable for a minimal fix.
• 🏷️ Removed malformed stray-bracket labels [automation/help wanted] from this issue.

2026-08-29 — Run

• 🔍 Task 4 (Engineering Investments): Diagnosed root cause of Dependabot PR Bump Suave from 2.6.2 to 3.4.5 #1269's CI failure — Suave 3.4.5 breaking API changes (Async→Task rewrite) incompatible with BuildCommand.fs. Posted a diagnostic comment on the PR for maintainers; no code fix attempted given scope/risk.
• 🔍 Task 3 (Issue Fix): Reviewed issues labelled bug/help wanted/good first issue — no new issue found that is both unaddressed and safely, minimally fixable this run.
• 🔍 Task 2 (Issue Comment): Reviewed all 15 open issues; all already have adequate Repo Assist engagement from prior runs and no new human activity was found warranting a fresh comment.
• 🔍 Verified CI status of all 4 open Repo Assist PRs ([Repo Assist] fix: make code tooltip interactive — allow mouse to enter tooltip to select/copy text #1130, [repo-assist] perf: use HashSet for culture-code lookup in processFolder #1241, [repo-assist] fix: surface FSI evaluation errors to stderr by default in FsiEvaluator #1242, [repo-assist] Support top-level (seealso) XML doc tags in API docs #1264): all passing.
