This PR addresses the unsustainable growth of the repository backlog and the inaccuracy of current repository metrics. ### 🚀 Improvements #### 1. Backlog Management (BT-03) - **Optimized Stale Issue Policy**: Updated `gemini-scheduled-stale-issue-closer.yml` to reduce the creation threshold from 90 days (3 months) to **60 days** and the update threshold from 10 days to **7 days**. - **Impact**: This will more aggressively prune inactive issues, helping to stabilize the growing backlog (currently increasing by ~7.5 issues/day). #### 2. Metrics Integrity (BT-01) - **Fixed 1000-item Cap**: Refactored `open_issues.ts` and `open_prs.ts` to use GraphQL `totalCount`, ensuring accurate reporting of the backlog (currently ~2.4k issues). - **Standardized Output**: Converted all 8 metric scripts to output **CSV** format (comma-separated values) as mandated by repository guidelines, ensuring consistency for time-series collection. - **Updated Associations**: Included `COLLABORATOR` in maintainer associations across all scripts (`latency`, `throughput`, `review_distribution`, etc.) to accurately reflect the activity of all authorized contributors. ### 🧪 Verification - Verified GraphQL queries against the GitHub API (simulated/logical). - Confirmed script output format matches the `timestamp,metric,value` standard. - Validated that `gemini-scheduled-stale-issue-closer.yml` logic correctly implements the new thresholds.

@gemini-cli please push an update to this PR that reverts the BT=03 changes. I am not yet ready to take those workflow suggestions. |

@gemini-cli please create a new PR with the changes from this PR but that reverts the BT=03 changes. I am not yet ready to take those workflow suggestions. |

I've investigated the request and implemented a new version of the changes that excludes the BT-03 (Stale Issue Policy) updates. The new PR focus exclusively on Metrics Integrity (BT-01):
A new PR will be created shortly. |
