Tracking Workflow

A reusable GitHub Action for tracking project activity in a central issue.

Usage

Option 1: Using repository variable (recommended)

1. Set TRACKING_ISSUE_NUMBER in Settings > Secrets and variables > Variables
2. Add this to your workflow:

jobs:
  track:
    uses: bniladridas/tracking-workflow/.github/workflows/tracking.yml@main

Option 2: Passing as input

jobs:
  track:
    uses: bniladridas/tracking-workflow/.github/workflows/tracking.yml@main
    with:
      tracking_issue_number: 113

How it works

• Triggers when issues or PRs are opened, closed, or reopened
• Posts an automated comment to the tracking issue with:
  • Type (Issue or PR)
  • Number and title
  • Status and action
  • Date created

The input parameter takes priority over the variable if both are set.
