As long as you're touching files, I'd recommend removing the automergeTriggers.yml and the associated label since it's not used at all
- Convert regex patterns to (?in) inline flags with label-matching casing - Add Needs-Author-Feedback back to triageLabels (safe for issues) - Remove unused automergeTriggers.yml policy - Fix Needs-Triage removal to exclude auto-applied labels - Fix stale issue flow and issueUpdated handlers Co-authored-by: Copilot <223556219+Copilot@users.noreply.github.com>

## 📖 Description <!-- Describe what this PR changes, why, and any limitations. --> Although these three labels get applied when the issue is opened, it is technically a separate event that happens *after* the the issue is opened. This means that the policy service is catching this event and removing issues from triage before they are actually triaged. This is a faulty implementation from #6202 ## 🔗 References <!-- Link related issues, PRs, or docs.

📖 Description
Modernizes policy bot regex handling by switching to inline flags, fixes triageLabels so auto-applied labels do not clear triage too early, removes unused automergeTriggers, restores Needs-Author-Feedback coverage, and cleans up related stale-flow behavior.
