# Triage a findings list

Work a findings list from the top: tab, severity, kind, duplicates, status, tag, and a CSV export for what you hand on.

*Where in the portal: Security → Findings*

*Last updated: 2026-10-21*

Triage is deciding what to do with each finding, most severe first. Work the list in this order: narrow it, clear duplicates, decide each finding's status, label what remains and export what you hand on.

## Narrow the list

Lists show the most severe findings first. The tabs split the list by status: **All**, **Open**, **Fixed**, **Accepted risk** and **False positive**. Start on **Open**.

Choose **Filter** to narrow further:

| Filter | Choices |
| --- | --- |
| Severity | Critical, High, Medium, Low, Info; see [Severities](https://kelrova.com/docs/findings/severity) |
| Kind | Vulnerability, Cost risk, Hardening, Adversary; see [What Kelrova finds](https://kelrova.com/docs/findings/kinds) |
| Duplicates | Not merged, Possible, Merged |
| Activity | All, With activity, Waiting for review |
| First found | All time, 24h, 7 days, 30 days |
| Last verification | Any verification, No verification recorded, Verified in last 24h, Not verified in 7 days |

The list shows code findings by default. Its **Show** filter can switch to **Dependency advisories**, which are explained on [Dependency advisories](https://kelrova.com/docs/findings/dependency-advisories), or to **Everything**. If the project has tags, a tag filter appears with an **Untagged** choice.

## Clear duplicates

Choose **Possible** under **Duplicates**, or **Actions › Review possible duplicates…**. The review groups each finding with the one it would keep. Tick the findings to act on, then choose **Merge** or **Keep separate** for the batch. When it finishes, **Undo merges** reverses what you merged. Details are on [Duplicates and possible duplicates](https://kelrova.com/docs/findings/duplicates).

## Decide each finding

Open a finding and read its evidence before acting: [Reading evidence](https://kelrova.com/docs/findings/evidence) says what to check. Then use the **Status** menu on the finding. On an open finding it offers two moves:

- **Accepted risk** when a member decides to live with it. Later scans stop reporting it as new.
- **False positive** when it is not a real problem. Later scans stop reporting it.

A closed finding offers **Open** to reopen it. You do not set **Fixed** yourself: a later scan, a re-check or a reported fix does. A scan that sees the problem again reopens a fixed finding. **Status proposed** means an agent proposed one of the two moves, and nothing changes until a member accepts or dismisses it.

[Statuses and what changes them](https://kelrova.com/docs/findings/statuses) covers every transition. To fix a finding, [Go Fix](https://kelrova.com/docs/findings/go-fix) offers to fix it, re-check it or answer questions about it.

> **Tip**
>
> Choose **Waiting for review** under **Activity**, then **Review proposals…**, to go through the proposals your agents have made in one pass.

## Label what remains

A finding has zero or one tag. Members who manage findings set a tag or **No tag** on the finding page; the tag set itself is saved in the project's **Tags** settings (**Security → Settings → Tags**). See [Tags](https://kelrova.com/docs/findings/tags). Filtering by tag combines choices with OR.

## Export

Choose **Actions › Export findings…**. The dialog offers **Current filters** or **All findings in this project** and **Download CSV** gives one row per finding, with its description and remediation. A file holds up to 10,000 findings, so narrow the list first if the project has more. See [Export findings](https://kelrova.com/docs/findings/export).

## Check your work

To verify what is still open against the current code, **Actions › Re-verify all findings…** re-checks the matching open findings under the current filters. See [Re-verify earlier findings](https://kelrova.com/docs/scans/re-verify).
