Addressed Issues:

Fixes #424

Screenshots/Recordings:

Not applicable. This change updates the Governance audit's GitHub API requests and does not introduce UI changes.

Additional Notes:

  • Added fetchGovernanceIssues to retrieve open issues and pull requests in oldest-first order.
  • Updated the Governance audit to use the new function while preserving existing fetchIssues behavior for other parts of the application.
  • Added regression tests for request parameters and pagination behavior.
  • Existing pagination limits remain unchanged, so older items are prioritized but exhaustive coverage is not guaranteed.

Checklist

  • My code follows the project's code style and conventions
  • I have made corresponding changes to the documentation
  • My changes generate no new warnings or errors
  • I have joined the Discord server, and I will share a link to this PR with the project maintainers there
  • I have read the Contributing Guidelines

⚠️ AI Notice - Important!

I used AI assistance during development and reviewed the proposed changes and tests. The Governance regression tests pass (2/2), and the production build succeeds. The full test suite has one failure in src/App.test.jsx due to ResizeObserver being undefined in the test environment (99/100 tests passed). I will ensure I understand the changes and address any feedback from maintainers.

Summary by CodeRabbit

  • Updates
    • Governance audits now review open issues from oldest to newest. When authenticated, audits can retrieve up to 1,000 issues; without authentication, they retrieve up to 100. Retrieval stops early when there are no more issues to load. This helps audits include older issues when a repository has a large backlog.

Walkthrough

The governance audit now fetches open issues and pull requests in oldest-first order. It requests up to 10 pages when a token is available and one page otherwise, and stops when a page contains fewer than 100 items.

Changes

Governance issue fetching

Layer / File(s) Summary
Fetch open items
src/services/github.js, src/services/github.governance.test.js
Added fetchGovernanceIssues to retrieve open items in creation order, with pagination limits based on token availability. Tests check the request parameters and early stopping.
Use the governance fetch
src/context/AppContext.jsx
auditRepos now uses fetchGovernanceIssues for selected repositories. It retains batches of five and returns the accumulated map.

As written, the Governance audit and full analytics run fail at the end of every run. Even after that is fixed, analytics charts would lose closed-issue and closed-PR history because they would receive only open items. Both problems should be fixed before merging.

Explanation

The changed service function, Governance integration, and regression tests directly support Issue #424. The existing fetchIssues implementation remains unchanged. No unrelated production behavior is introduced by the reviewed diff.

Full details: Linked Issues check

Explanation

Issue #424 requires Governance to use an open, oldest-first dataset while preserving the existing fetchIssues behavior. fetchGovernanceIssues correctly requests state=open, sort=created, direction=asc, and keeps the existing page limits. However, auditRepos stores results in map and returns maps, which is undefined. The Governance audit therefore fails before it can use the fetched items. The tests cover request parameters and early pagination, but they do not detect this audit integration failure.

Resolution

Change return maps to return map in auditRepos. Add a regression test for the audit integration that verifies fetched open items reach the Governance processing path.

Make the short-page test exercise pagination.

With a null token, fetchGovernanceIssues has a one-page limit. This assertion passes even if the short-page stopping condition is removed. Use a token, return a full page followed by a short page, and assert that fetching stops after page two. Check the accumulated result as well. As per path instructions, “The tests are not tautological.”
