Issue Details: Comments

The Comments tab is a full conversation thread on the issue. Anyone with access to the issue can leave comments, and can edit or delete their own. Every comment is visible to everyone with access to the issue. There is no limit to the number of comments you can post on a single issue.

Use this tab to track an investigation as it unfolds, record triage decisions, share context, ask questions, or hand off remediation work.

Auto-logged actions

Some issue-level actions automatically add an attributed entry to the thread, so the audit trail is captured without a manual note. Examples include:

  • Marking an issue as a False Positive (entry tagged [Reported as False Positive] <reason>)

  • Canceling a False Positive report

  • Excluding an issue

Permissions and roles

Visibility is the same for everyone with access to the issue. Posting, editing, and deleting are controlled by role.

Editing is always owner-only. Even an admin cannot rewrite another user's text.

Auto-logged action entries (Report False Positive, Cancel False Positive, Exclude) are attributed to the user who performed the action and follow the same edit and delete rules as manual comments.

How to use
