## New features

### Merge Queue: Enqueue pull requests by label

**You can now send a PR to the merge queue by applying a configured GitHub label**, alongside the existing `/trunk merge` comment, web app, and CLI options.

Configure a single label per repository (for example, `merge-queue` or `ready-to-merge`) under **Settings → Repositories → Merge Queue → Enqueue by label**. Once set, applying that label to any eligible open PR enqueues it automatically, and Trunk removes the label as soon as the queue picks the PR up.

Did you really mean 'enqueues'?

This makes it easy to plug Trunk Merge Queue into existing label-based GitHub workflows and automations — bots, GitHub Actions, and review tools that already manage labels can now drive the merge queue without learning a new command surface.

Did you really mean 'automations'?

Note: removing the label does **not** cancel a PR that has already been picked up. Use `/trunk cancel`, the web app, or the CLI to cancel an in-flight PR.
