How to deal with urgent requests

I think one solution is to write out own simple tool to deal with this. Github does not have the functionality to define dealines on issues. However, we can imply a deadline using

issue created data
label (e.g. 'urgent')

We can search for issues using these criteria and either build a quick page to show a list of the results using this api: https://api.github.com/search/issues?q=urgent+repo:ices-tools-prod/icesSAG+created:%3E2017-11-01

or link to githubs page with the appropriate filters: https://github.com/ices-tools-prod/icesSAG/issues?utf8=%E2%9C%93&q=urgent+created:%3E2017-11-01

All the tool would do would be to set the created date to be 1 week / 1 day etc. prior to the current date, depending on the label and times we agree each category should be completed in.

We could even do it in TAF ;)
