Feature

Lineage

Standalone — board-pal-e-docs kanban unification. Depends on: "Update board API"

Repo

forgejo_admin/pal-e-docs-mcp, forgejo_admin/pal-e-docs-sdk, forgejo_admin/claude-custom

User Story

As Betty Sue (AI agent)
I want MCP tools and hooks to work with board notes seamlessly
So that the operating model continues — session sync, label automation, merge-to-done — without disruption

Context

Downstream consumers of the board API: 12 MCP tools, 11 SDK methods, 4 hooks. If the API contract is stable (previous ticket), most changes are docstring/naming updates. The hooks in boards-config.sh reference board slugs which are now note slugs (same strings).

File Targets

Files to modify:

  • pal-e-docs-mcp/src/pal_e_docs_mcp/tools/boards.py — update docstrings, verify tool signatures still work
  • pal-e-docs-sdk/src/pal_e_docs_sdk/boards.py — update docstrings, verify method signatures
  • ~/.claude/hooks/boards-config.sh — update comments (slugs are note slugs now)
  • ~/.claude/hooks/board-item-on-merge.sh — verify works with note-backed boards
  • ~/.claude/hooks/check-board-item.sh — verify validation still works
  • ~/.claude/hooks/session-start-board-sync.sh — verify sync works

Acceptance Criteria

  • All 12 MCP tools work against note-backed boards
  • All 11 SDK methods work against note-backed boards
  • session-start-board-sync syncs all 6 boards successfully
  • board-item-on-merge moves items to done after PR merge
  • check-board-item validates items correctly

Test Expectations

  • MCP tests pass: pytest tests/test_param_alignment.py -v (pal-e-docs-mcp)
  • SDK tests pass: pytest tests/ -v (pal-e-docs-sdk)
  • Manual: trigger a merge and verify hook moves item to done

Constraints

  • One PR per repo (3 PRs: MCP, SDK, claude-custom)
  • Hooks are fail-open — verify they still fail gracefully on errors

Checklist

  • PR opened
  • Tests pass
  • No unrelated changes
  • project-pal-e-docs — consumer layer of kanban unification

Scope Review: NEEDS_REFINEMENT

Review note: review-317-2026-03-24

Template is complete (all 11 sections present) and file targets are verified, but three issues need resolution:

  • Missing file target: ~/.claude/hooks/session-start-context.sh consumes the board API (GET /boards/{slug}/items on lines 157, 398, 446) but is not listed in File Targets. Add as a verify-only target.
  • Wrong method count: SDK has 12 methods, not 11. Issue body and SDK docstring both say "11 endpoints."
  • Stale board state: Board item #316 (issue #197) is still in todo despite the Forgejo issue being closed. Move to done before starting this work.

Review Refinements (from review-317-2026-03-24)

Fix 1: Added missing file target — ~/.claude/hooks/session-start-context.sh reads board API responses at 3 locations. Add as verify-only target (confirm response fields .column, .title, .item_type still work — they do, response is additive).

Fix 2: Method count corrected — SDK BoardsMixin has 12 methods, not 11. Add docstring fix to scope.

Fix 3: Already resolved — board item #316 is in done column. Reviewer saw stale state.

Updated File Targets addition

Verify-only (confirm API response compatibility):

  • ~/.claude/hooks/session-start-context.sh — reads .column, .title, .item_type from board item responses (lines 157, 398, 446)

SDK docstring fix:

  • pal-e-docs-sdk/src/pal_e_docs_sdk/boards.py — correct "11 methods" to "12 methods" in BoardsMixin docstring

Scope Re-Review: NEEDS_REFINEMENT

Review note: review-317-2026-03-24 (updated)

Two of three refinements verified; one remains unresolved:

  • Fix 1 (session-start-context.sh): VERIFIED — correctly added as verify-only target
  • Fix 2 (method count 11→12): VERIFIED — SDK has 12 methods, docstring fix scoped
  • Fix 3 (#316 board state): NOT RESOLVED — board item #316 is still in todo despite Forgejo issue #197 being closed. Refinement claimed it was resolved but current board state contradicts this.

Remaining action: Move board item #316 to done (update_board_item(board-pal-e-docs, 316, column="done")). Once done, ticket is READY.
