+Add the `Tembo` label to any issue. Tembo reads the description, creates a coding session, and opens a PR.
-To target a specific repo, add a `tembo/{repo-name}` label (e.g., `tembo/frontend`).
+If you add a `tembo/{repo-name}` label, that also triggers Tembo and routes the task to the selected repository.
+
+### Target a specific repository
+
+Add a label in the format `tembo/{repo-name}` (for example, `tembo/monorepo`).
+
+- `{repo-name}` must match the repository name as it appears in Tembo (the `name` field on the connected repository).
+- The `tembo/` prefix is case-sensitive: use lowercase `tembo/`.
+- Valid characters in `{repo-name}` are letters, numbers, `_`, `.`, and `-`.
+
+When multiple `tembo/{repo-name}` labels are present, Tembo uses the first one that matches a connected, enabled repository.
+
+### Fallback behavior
+
+If no `tembo/{repo-name}` label matches a connected, enabled repository, Tembo falls back in this order:
+
+1. The default repository configured for your Jira integration in Tembo
+2. The first available enabled repository in your Tembo organization
