## Claim specific review targets
When a maintainer asks Codex to review, triage, fix, or land a specific OpenClaw issue/PR, check assignment before deep work.
- Identify the requesting maintainer's GitHub login. In this environment, default Peter to `steipete`; if another maintainer is clearly the requester, use that maintainer's bare login.
- Read current assignees with live `gh issue view` / `gh pr view`; `gitcrawl` is not enough for assignment state.
- If unassigned, assign the requester before deep review. This is allowed for specific requested targets; do not auto-assign broad discovery candidates or shortlists.
- If assigned to someone else, say so clearly before analysis and include assignment age:
- fresh: assigned within 6h; treat as actively owned unless user explicitly asks to continue or reassign
- stale: assigned 6h+ ago; treat as ownership hint, not a hard block; continue only with that caveat
- If assigned to requester plus others, mention co-assignees and continue.
- If assignment event time is unavailable, say `assigned, time unknown`; treat as assigned, not stale.
- Never remove or replace assignees unless explicitly asked.
Assignment time proof:
```bash
gh api "repos/openclaw/openclaw/issues/<number>/timeline" --paginate \
-H "Accept: application/vnd.github+json" \
--jq '[.[] | select(.event=="assigned") | {assignee:.assignee.login, assigner:.assigner.login, actor:.actor.login, created_at}]'
```
Use the newest `assigned` event for each current assignee. Issue timeline events expose `created_at`; GitHub GraphQL `AssignedEvent.createdAt` is also valid when REST pagination is awkward.
Claim command for issues or PRs:
```bash
gh api -X POST "repos/openclaw/openclaw/issues/<number>/assignees" -f 'assignees[]=<login>' >/dev/null
```
## Surface opener identity
- For every reviewed, triaged, closed, or landed issue/PR, show the opener's human name when available, GitHub login, and account age.
