PR Code Suggestions ✨

Explore these optional code suggestions:

Category	Suggestion	Impact
General	Ensure consistent milestone exemption rules The exempt-milestones parameter should be applied to both stale action configurations to ensure consistent behavior across all stale checks. .github/workflows/stale.yml [27-30] - uses: actions/stale@v9 with: close-issue-message: 'This issue was closed because we did not receive any additional information after 14 days.' stale-issue-label: 'R-awaiting answer' + exempt-milestones: '*' Apply this suggestion Suggestion importance[1-10]: 8 __ Why: The suggestion correctly identifies an inconsistency where milestone exemption is only applied to one stale action but not both, which could lead to inconsistent handling of milestone-assigned items. Adding the exemption to both actions ensures uniform behavior.	Medium

While reading https://github.com/actions/stale, I don't see the wildcard '*' can work with that config.
I see another might help

exempt-all-milestones
If set to true, the issues or the pull requests with a milestone will not be marked as stale automatically.

Priority over exempt-milestones.

Default value: false

I fixed and merged.
