Your GitHub login becomes the annotator; the issue's
created_at is the submission timestamp.tools/process_extension_labels.py)
fetches all ext-review issues and writes their
parsed contents into
data/derived/extension_labels.csv with
curator_status="new". Until this script runs, your
submission lives only as the GitHub issue.extension_labels.csv to set
curator_status to accepted.pl/<id> labels, build_pl_taxonomy.py
promotes accepted labels into
ext_claim.csv with
source="manual_review:<your-login>" and
strength="proposed". The next site rebuild then
shows your claim on this extension's page and on the
language's page.binary:image for .png) are not
promoted into ext_claim.csv (they aren't PL
claims) but are surfaced on this page's "Prior labels"
table so anyone landing here sees them next to the auto-detected
category.In short: submitting opens an issue (provenance), and a small ingestion pipeline turns issues into rows the site renders. The loop is currently manual (the curator script must be run by a maintainer); GitHub Actions could automate it on each new issue.
