The Capacitor team is conducting a comprehensive backlog cleanup to address accumulated technical debt in their GitHub repositories. Starting February 23rd, 2026, they will close pull requests targeting Capacitor ≤7, items inactive for 12+ months, and issues needing reproduction without updates within 7 days. The cleanup affects three main repositories and aims to distinguish between active bugs, resolved issues, outdated feature requests, and duplicates. The team is also implementing better automation and triage processes to maintain a healthy backlog going forward. Community members have a 3-week window to update their issues with reproduction steps or confirm PR maintenance status.
