Standalone — board-pal-e-agency board hygiene

forgejo_admin/pal-e-docs (API for board operations)

User Story

As the superuser
I want deprecated todo-type board items converted to proper Forgejo issues
So that every board item has a real scope document and the deprecated item_type is eliminated

Context

31 board items across all boards use item_type="todo" which is deprecated. These reference todo-* notes instead of Forgejo issues. Per feedback_no_todo_notes, work items should be Forgejo issues. This ticket converts each todo item: create a Forgejo issue from the todo note content, update the board item to item_type="issue" with the new forgejo_issue_url, then archive the todo note.

What Broke

Not a bug — cleanup of deprecated pattern. The todo item_type predates the kanban-over-plans convention.

File Targets

Board operations via MCP:

Query all boards for items where item_type="todo"
For each: create Forgejo issue, update board item, archive todo note

Acceptance Criteria

Zero board items with item_type="todo" across all 13 boards
Each converted item has a Forgejo issue with scope from the original todo note
Original todo notes archived (not deleted)

Test Expectations

list_board_items(board_slug="board-pal-e-platform", item_type="todo") returns empty
Same for all boards

Constraints

Don't delete todo notes — archive them
Preserve board position, column, labels when converting
Some todo items may be stale and should just be removed rather than converted

Checklist

Tests pass
No unrelated changes
