Migrate open .github pull request titles to plain outcome wording #2690

Open

Description

@codeforester

Problem

The basefoundry/.github repository has GitHub Issues disabled, but it can still contain open pull requests whose titles follow the old category-prefix convention. Track its migration from the Base repository and do not enable Issues as a side effect.

Expected behavior

After the accepted templates and organization-config adoption are active, inventory every open PR in basefoundry/.github and rename it to plain outcome/problem wording. Closed and merged PR titles remain historical. If no open PR exists, record that evidence and close this task with a reasoned no-op.

Scope and non-goals

Scope: Metadata-only title migration for open PRs in basefoundry/.github.

Non-goals: Do not enable repository Issues, create an issue in .github, change branch policy, or edit closed/merged titles.

Affected areas

Impact and evidence

  1. Product intent: No product behavior change.
  2. Architecture and contracts: Applies the accepted title rule to the special org-config profile.
  3. User guidance: No user content change; inventory open PRs.
  4. CLI/API and reference: No CLI change.
  5. Operations and safety: Keep Issues disabled and preserve org-level settings.
  6. Validation and testing: Read back each changed PR title and compare counts.
  7. Examples and downstream use: No examples affected; no source examples in this metadata-only task.
  8. Governance and contributor process: Apply the shared plain-title contract through a repo-local PR linked to this Base issue.
  9. Decision records: No new decision.
  10. Release notes: Reasoned none; metadata-only change.

Open questions

  • Confirm templates and title rules are live before execution; ambiguous titles remain unchanged and get separate clarification issues.

    Pre-Triage review against the accepted plan (#2664, tracker #2665)

    1. This is the one issue whose contract text is specific rather than templated, and its dependencies use real issue numbers. Good.
    2. basefoundry/.github has 0 open PRs today, so unless that changes, this closes as the no-op it describes. The decision is still taken at execution time, as written.
    3. It depends on Adopt the governance profile in the organization configuration repository #2685 for the org templates. If Adopt the governance profile in the organization configuration repository #2685 is sliced as suggested there, this needs only slice S1.
