🌐 Web query:
GitHub username mention syntax colon immediately before @user notification
💡 Result:
No, a colon is not required before a GitHub @mention to trigger a notification [1][2]. The standard syntax for mentioning a user or team on GitHub is simply the @ symbol followed immediately by their username or team name (e.g., @username) [1][3]. Placing a colon immediately before the @ symbol is not part of the standard @mention syntax and would not be interpreted as a user mention [1][4]. While colons are used in GitHub Flavored Markdown for other features—such as creating emoji (e.g.,:smile:)—they are not used for user or team mentions [4]. When you type @, GitHub provides an autocomplete list of users and teams that filters as you type [1][2]. Selecting a user or team from this list ensures the correct syntax is used to trigger a notification [1]. Notifications for @mentions occur when a user is mentioned in contexts such as issues, pull requests, and discussions, provided the user has read access to the repository [1][5][6].

Preserve bare scoped package names
At .github/scripts/issue-translation.cjs:810-813, the regex rewrites bare @scope/package tokens, although sanitizeTranslationBody states that scopes must remain unchanged. @scope/package and @org/team have the same lexical form. Add context-aware handling and tests for bare scopes, npm:@scope/package``, and @org/team.

🎯 Functional Correctness | 🟡 Minor | ⚡ Quick win
Assert the preserved forms.
The test input includes user@example.com and npm:@scope``, but the test only asserts the defused mentions. A regression that inserts a zero-width character into either preserved token would still pass.
Add preservation assertions, and add a slash-bearing scoped-package case if bare npm scopes are part of the contract.
Proposed test additions
assert.match(out, /@\u200boctocat/);
assert.match(out, /,@\u200bteam/);
assert.match(out, /\[@\u200buser\]/);
assert.match(out, />@\u200borg\/team/);
+ assert.match(out, /user@example\.com/);

The six open js/polynomial-redos alerts I listed included #84, which had already been fixed fourteen minutes before I wrote the list, and omitted #50, which is open. Still six, one member wrong. The live set is #83, #60, #53, #52, #51, #50, all from 2026-08-12/13 - so the scoped claim holds: this campaign introduced exactly one and fixed exactly that one. And the one it introduced has now closed. Alert #87 reads fixed as of 03:17:06Z from the rescan of main. The earlier text predicted that and declined to claim it in advance, which turned out to be the right call.
