+            This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has been open for 180 days
+            with no activity. It will be closed in next 14 days if no further activity occurs. To
+            permanently prevent this issue from being considered stale, add the label 'not-stale',
+            but commenting on the issue is preferred when possible.
+          close-issue-message: >
+            This issue has been closed because it has not received any activity in the last 14 days
