issue-status

Move an issue to a column on project board 8 (https://github.com/orgs/moderneinc/projects/8).

Project 8 spans several repos (moderne-saas, codegenomeproject, …), so an issue number is not unique on the board — the same number exists in multiple repos. Resolve by repository, never by number alone.

Parse $ARGUMENTS:

• First token = issue number (required).
• A token containing / (e.g. moderneinc/codegenomeproject) = repository (optional). A bare repo without an owner is assumed under moderneinc.
• Remaining tokens = target column name (optional, default In Progress). Match case-insensitively against the known columns below.

Known IDs (stable)

These are fixed for moderneinc project 8 — no need to re-resolve them:

• PROJECT_ID = PVT_kwDOBBZwVM0q6g
• FIELD_ID (Status) = PVTSSF_lADOBBZwVM0q6s4AATqk
• Status option IDs:
  • Icebox = 6f4ce84a
  • Refine = e2a82074
  • Backlog = f75ad846
  • In Progress = 47fc9ee4
  • Ready to Communicate = 98236657
  • Done = 04d30f6f

If the requested column is not in this list, list the valid columns and stop.

Run

Resolve the per-issue item ID scoped to its repository, then set the Status field. Replace <ISSUE> with the issue number, <OPTION_ID> with the option ID for the requested column, and <REPO> with owner/repo (empty if the caller gave none):

ISSUE=<ISSUE>
OPTION_ID=<OPTION_ID>
REPO=<REPO>   # e.g. moderneinc/codegenomeproject; empty if not specified

ITEMS=$(gh project item-list 8 --owner moderneinc --format json --limit 1000)

if [ -n "$REPO" ]; then
  # .content.repository is "owner/repo" — the reliable disambiguator.
  # Here-strings (<<<), not `echo "$ITEMS" | …`: zsh's echo mangles the \n/\t
  # escapes inside issue titles and corrupts the JSON.
  ITEM_ID=$(jq -r --arg n "$ISSUE" --arg r "$REPO" \
    '.items[] | select(.content.number == ($n|tonumber) and .content.repository == $r) | .id' <<<"$ITEMS")
else
  MATCHES=$(jq --arg n "$ISSUE" \
    '[.items[] | select(.content.number == ($n|tonumber))]' <<<"$ITEMS")
  if [ "$(jq 'length' <<<"$MATCHES")" -gt 1 ]; then
    echo "Issue #$ISSUE is ambiguous — it exists in multiple repos on project 8:"
    jq -r '.[] | "  \(.content.repository) — \(.content.title)"' <<<"$MATCHES"
    echo "Re-run with the repo, e.g.: /workflow:issue-status $ISSUE <column> moderneinc/<repo>"
    exit 1
  fi
  ITEM_ID=$(jq -r '.[0].id // empty' <<<"$MATCHES")
fi

if [ -z "$ITEM_ID" ]; then
  TARGET="${REPO:-moderneinc/<repo>}"
  echo "Issue #$ISSUE${REPO:+ in $REPO} is not on project 8. Add it first with:"
  echo "  gh project item-add 8 --owner moderneinc --url https://github.com/$TARGET/issues/$ISSUE"
  exit 1
fi

gh project item-edit \
  --id "$ITEM_ID" \
