Sort the pile by harm, reach, and effort. Not by who shouted.
A triage pass that turns a long bug list into a ranked order with a decision for each bug, using only the evidence you supply.
Triage often follows volume. The bug an executive mentioned twice beats a quiet data-loss bug nobody has reported yet. Severity, reach, and effort get blended into a feeling, and the order cannot be explained afterward.
Bug Triage rates the three separately, cites the report text behind each severity, and marks reach and effort as unverified when you gave no numbers. It then ranks, explains every move off the plain order, assigns a decision to each bug, and challenges the top of the list.
What it produces.
- →A normalized list with duplicates merged
- →Severity, reach, and effort per bug, with unverified marked
- →A ranked order with a one-line reason for each exception
- →A decision per bug: fix now, this cycle, backlog, needs info, or will not fix
- ✦Product and engineering leads running a triage meeting
- ✦Support leads who need to explain why a bug is waiting
- ✦Small teams cleaning a backlog before a release

Before you buy.
How is this different from just asking Claude directly?
Asked cold, Claude will rank bugs confidently from titles and fill in reach it cannot know. This keeps the three questions apart, labels guesses as guesses, and asks for the evidence that would confirm the bugs it ranked highest.
How is this different from a Tool?
Playbooks are systematically produced to a fixed template and priced accordingly ($12.99). Tools are hand-built, one at a time, and go deeper ($39 to $199). A Playbook gives you a reliable method for routine work; a Tool is for when the judgment matters more than the format.
Will this work with ChatGPT, Gemini, and other LLMs?
Yes. You get a native Claude Skill (.zip) that auto-invokes in Claude, plus a plain .md you can paste into a ChatGPT Custom GPT, a Gemini system prompt, or any LLM. The procedure travels with the file.
Can I share this with my team?
It's licensed for your own personal and professional use. The output it produces is yours to circulate. To put the Playbook itself in the hands of a whole team, email hello@authority.md about team licensing.
What if it doesn't work for me?
