Summary

Currently, forgejo-cli has no commands for managing milestones or projects. Milestone fields are hardcoded to None in issue/PR creation and editing, and projects are not referenced at all.

Milestones

The Forgejo API supports full milestone CRUD. It would be great to have CLI commands like:

fj milestone list - list milestones for a repo
fj milestone create - create a milestone (title, description, due date)
fj milestone view <id> - view milestone details and progress
fj milestone edit <id> - edit title, description, due date, state
fj milestone delete <id> - delete a milestone
fj issue create --milestone <name-or-id> - assign milestone on issue creation
fj issue edit --milestone <name-or-id> - assign/change milestone on existing issues
fj pr create --milestone <name-or-id> - same for PRs
fj issue search --milestone <name> / fj pr search --milestone <name> - filter by milestone

Projects

Forgejo supports projects (kanban boards) at both the repo and org level. Related to #351 (which requests displaying project info on issues), but this is broader - full project management:

fj project list - list projects for a repo
fj project create - create a project (title, description, board type)
fj project view <id> - view project details and columns
fj project edit <id> - edit project
fj project delete <id> - delete a project
fj project columns <id> - list/manage columns
Assign issues/PRs to projects during creation or editing

Current state in the code

milestone: None is hardcoded in CreateIssueOption and EditIssueOption (issues.rs) and PR equivalents (prs.rs)
milestones: None is hardcoded in search queries
RepoFeatures already has a milestones: bool field but it only controls repo migration
No project support exists anywhere

Scope

This could be broken into phases:

Milestone flags on existing commands (--milestone on issue/PR create, edit, search) - smallest useful increment
Milestone subcommand (fj milestone list/create/view/edit/delete)
Project subcommand (fj project list/create/view/edit/delete)

Happy to discuss prioritization or help with implementation.

Summary Currently, forgejo-cli has no commands for managing milestones or projects. Milestone fields are hardcoded to `None` in issue/PR creation and editing, and projects are not referenced at all. ## Milestones The Forgejo API supports full milestone CRUD. It would be great to have CLI commands like: - `fj milestone list` - list milestones for a repo - `fj milestone create` - create a milestone (title, description, due date) - `fj milestone view \<id\>` - view milestone details and progress - `fj milestone edit \<id\>` - edit title, description, due date, state - `fj milestone delete \<id\>` - delete a milestone - `fj issue create --milestone \<name-or-id\>` - assign milestone on issue creation - `fj issue edit --milestone \<name-or-id\>` - assign/change milestone on existing issues - `fj pr create --milestone \<name-or-id\>` - same for PRs - `fj issue search --milestone \<name\>` / `fj pr search --milestone \<name\>` - filter by milestone ## Projects Forgejo supports projects (kanban boards) at both the repo and org level. Related to #351 (which requests displaying project info on issues), but this is broader - full project management: - `fj project list` - list projects for a repo - `fj project create` - create a project (title, description, board type) - `fj project view \<id\>` - view project details and columns - `fj project edit \<id\>` - edit project - `fj project delete \<id\>` - delete a project - `fj project columns \<id\>` - list/manage columns - Assign issues/PRs to projects during creation or editing ## Current state in the code - `milestone: None` is hardcoded in `CreateIssueOption` and `EditIssueOption` (issues.rs) and PR equivalents (prs.rs) - `milestones: None` is hardcoded in search queries - `RepoFeatures` already has a `milestones: bool` field but it only controls repo migration - No project support exists anywhere ## Scope This could be broken into phases: 1. Milestone flags on existing commands (`--milestone` on issue/PR create, edit, search) - smallest useful increment 2. Milestone subcommand (`fj milestone list/create/view/edit/delete`) 3. Project subcommand (`fj project list/create/view/edit/delete`) Happy to discuss prioritization or help with implementation.

Was this written using an LLM in any way? The replacement characters scattered throughout are very strange.

Yes, I used Claude to help format the issue submission and make the issue. How come?
