+# Issue Triage Guidelines
+
+## Issue Classification
+
+When triaging a new issue, categorize it by type and apply appropriate labels:
+
+### Issue Types
+- **Bug**: An error, flaw, or unexpected behavior in the code
+- **Feature**: A request for new functionality or capability
+- **Request**: A general request that doesn't fit into bug or feature categories
+
+### Issue Labels
+- **bug**: For issues reporting bugs or unexpected behavior
+- **documentation**: For issues related to documentation improvements
+- **question**: For issues asking questions about usage or implementation
+- **duplicate**: For issues that have been reported before (link to the original issue)
+- **enhancement**: For feature requests or improvement suggestions
+- **help wanted**: For issues that need additional community input or assistance
+
+## Triage Process
+
+### Step 1: Initial Assessment
+1. Read the issue description thoroughly
+2. Determine if the issue provides sufficient information
+   - If too vague, ask for more details (reproduction steps, expected vs. actual behavior)
+   - Check for screenshots, error messages, or logs if applicable
+
+### Step 2: Categorization
+1. Assign the appropriate issue type (Bug, Feature, Request)
+2. Apply relevant labels based on the issue content
+
+### Step 3: Duplication Check
+1. Search for similar existing issues
+2. If a duplicate is found:
+   - Apply the "duplicate" label
+   - Comment with a link to the original issue
+   - Suggest closing the duplicate issue
+
+### Step 4: Issue Investigation
+
+#### For Bug Reports:
+1. Attempt to reproduce the issue if possible
+2. Investigate the codebase to identify potential causes
+3. Provide initial feedback on:
+   - Potential root causes
+   - Affected components
+   - Possible solutions or workarounds
+   - Estimation of complexity
+
+#### For Feature Requests:
+1. Evaluate if the request aligns with the project's goals
+2. Investigate feasibility and implementation approaches
+3. Provide feedback on:
+   - Implementation possibilities
+   - Potential challenges
+   - Similar existing functionality
+   - Estimation of work required
+
+#### For Questions:
+1. Research the code and documentation to find answers
+2. Provide clear and helpful responses
+3. Suggest documentation improvements if the question reveals gaps
+
+### Step 5: Follow-up
+1. Provide a constructive and helpful comment
+2. Ask clarifying questions if needed
+3. Suggest next steps or potential contributors
+4. Set appropriate expectations for resolution timeframes
+
+## Communication Guidelines
+
+- Be respectful and constructive in all communications
+- Acknowledge the issue reporter's contribution
+- Use clear and specific language
+- Provide context for technical suggestions
+- Link to relevant documentation when applicable
+- Encourage community participation when appropriate
+
+## Special Considerations
+
+- For security vulnerabilities, suggest proper disclosure channels
+- For major feature requests, suggest discussion in appropriate forums first
+- For issues affecting performance, request benchmark data if not provided
+- For platform-specific issues, request environment details
