feat: task-to-issue automation system

- Created scripts/sync-tasks-to-issues.py for automatic Gitea issue creation
- Added Git pre-commit hook to auto-sync on tasks.md changes
- Smart label detection based on task content (status, priority, assignees, areas)
- Created comprehensive documentation in docs/procedures/task-to-issue-automation.md
- Synced all missing tasks (#1-9, #21-27) to Gitea issues (#86-101)

This ensures every task in docs/core/tasks.md automatically gets a Gitea issue
on the Kanban board with appropriate labels. No more manual issue creation!

# Task to Gitea Issue Automation
**Created:** March 20, 2026
**Created By:** The Chronicler #36
**Purpose:** Automatically create Gitea issues whenever tasks are added to `docs/core/tasks.md`
---
## Overview
This automation ensures that **every task in `docs/core/tasks.md` has a corresponding Gitea issue** on the Kanban board. No more manual issue creation!
### How It Works
1. **You edit** `docs/core/tasks.md` and add a new task
2. **You commit** the changes to Git
3. **Pre-commit hook** detects the change and runs `scripts/sync-tasks-to-issues.py`
4. **Script parses** tasks.md and creates missing Gitea issues
5. **Issues created** with appropriate labels (status, priority, type, area, assignee)
6. **Issues appear** in Gitea with `status/backlog` label
---
## Components
### 1. Main Sync Script
**Location:** `scripts/sync-tasks-to-issues.py`
**What it does:**
- Parses `docs/core/tasks.md` to extract all tasks
- Checks which tasks already have Gitea issues
- Creates missing issues with smart label detection
- Applies labels based on task content:
- **Status:** Detects COMPLETE, BLOCKED, IN PROGRESS, or defaults to backlog
- **Priority:** Detects from Tier 0/1/2/3 or HIGH/MEDIUM/LOW keywords
- **Assignees:** Detects Michael/Meg/Holly mentions
- **Areas:** Detects Ghost/Pterodactyl/Mailcow/etc.
- **Type:** Detects task/feature/bug/infrastructure/docs
**Usage:**
```bash
# Dry run (see what would be created)
python3 scripts/sync-tasks-to-issues.py --dry-run
# Actually create issues
python3 scripts/sync-tasks-to-issues.py
# From anywhere in the repo
cd /path/to/firefrost-operations-manual
python3 scripts/sync-tasks-to-issues.py
```
### 2. Git Pre-Commit Hook
**Location:** `.git/hooks/pre-commit`
**What it does:**
- Automatically runs before every commit
- Detects if `docs/core/tasks.md` was modified
- Runs the sync script automatically
- Commits proceed even if sync fails (with warning)
**Installation:**
Already installed! The hook is in `.git/hooks/pre-commit` and is executable.
---
## Workflow for Adding New Tasks
### Step 1: Add Task to tasks.md
Edit `docs/core/tasks.md` and add your task:
```markdown
### 67. Deploy New Modpack Server
**Time:** 2-3 hours
**Status:** READY
**Priority:** HIGH
**Documentation:** `docs/tasks/new-modpack-deployment/`
Deploy the Eternal Skyforge modpack to TX1 Dallas server for soft launch.
**Key Deliverables:**
- Server installed and configured
- Whitelisted and tested
- Added to Paymenter tier
**Dependencies:**
- Task #2 (Rank system deployment)
- Server hardware available on TX1
```
### Step 2: Commit the Change
```bash
cd /path/to/firefrost-operations-manual
git add docs/core/tasks.md
git commit -m "feat: add Task #67 - Deploy New Modpack Server"
```
### Step 3: Automation Runs
The pre-commit hook automatically:
1. Detects the tasks.md change
2. Runs the sync script
3. Creates Gitea issue for Task #67
4. Applies labels based on content
You'll see output like:
```
🔥❄️ Detected changes to tasks.md - syncing to Gitea issues...
📋 Parsed 67 tasks from docs/core/tasks.md
🔍 Found 66 existing task issues
✅ Created issue #86: Task #67 - Deploy New Modpack Server
✅ Task sync complete
```
### Step 4: Push to Gitea
```bash
git push origin master
```
**Done!** Your task now exists as both:
- Documentation in `docs/core/tasks.md`
- Gitea issue on the Kanban board (with `status/backlog` label)
---
## Label Detection Logic
The script is smart about applying labels based on task content:
### Status Detection
- Contains "✅ COMPLETE" → `status/done`
- Contains "BLOCKED" → `status/blocked`
- Contains "IN PROGRESS" → `status/in-progress`
- **Default:** → `status/backlog`
### Priority Detection
- Contains "Tier 0" or "TOP PRIORITY" or "critical" → `priority/critical`
- Contains "HIGH" or "Priority: High" → `priority/high`
- Contains "Tier 2" or "MEDIUM" → `priority/medium`
- Contains "Tier 3" or "LOW" → `priority/low`
- **Default:** → `priority/medium`
### Assignee Detection
- Mentions "Michael" or "Frostystyle" → `for/michael`
- Mentions "Meg" or "GingerFury" or "Emissary" → `for/meg`
- Mentions "Holly" or "unicorn" or "Builder" → `for/holly`
- **Default:** → `for/michael`
### Area Detection
- Mentions "Ghost" or "website" or "homepage" → `area/website`
- Mentions "Pterodactyl" or "Panel" → `area/panel`
- Mentions "Wings" or "game server" → `area/wings`
- Mentions "Mailcow" or "email" → `area/email`
- Mentions "Paymenter" or "billing" → `area/billing`
- Mentions "n8n" or "automation" → `area/automation`
- Mentions "network" or "firewall" → `area/networking`
- **Default:** → `area/operations`
### Type Detection
- Mentions "bug" or "fix" → `type/bug`
- Mentions "feature" or "new" → `type/feature`
- Mentions "infrastructure" or "deploy" or "server" → `type/infrastructure`
- Mentions "documentation" or "docs" or "guide" → `type/docs`
- **Default:** → `type/task`

## Manual Sync (If Needed)
If you need to manually sync tasks to issues (e.g., after bulk changes):
```bash
cd /path/to/firefrost-operations-manual
# Preview what would be created
python3 scripts/sync-tasks-to-issues.py --dry-run
# Actually create missing issues
python3 scripts/sync-tasks-to-issues.py
```
---
## Troubleshooting
### Hook Not Running
If the pre-commit hook doesn't run:
```bash
# Check if hook exists and is executable
ls -la .git/hooks/pre-commit
# If not executable:
chmod +x .git/hooks/pre-commit
```
### Script Fails
If the sync script fails:
```bash
# Check Python is available
python3 --version
# Check requests library is installed
python3 -c "import requests; print('OK')"
# If not installed:
pip3 install requests --break-system-packages
# Run with verbose output
python3 scripts/sync-tasks-to-issues.py
```
### Issues Not Appearing on Kanban
**Known Limitation:** Gitea's API doesn't support adding issues to project boards programmatically (as of Gitea v1.21.5).
**Current Workflow:**
1. Script creates issues with proper labels
2. Issues appear in regular issue list
3. **Manual step required:** Add issues to "Firefrost Operations" project board via web UI
**Future Enhancement:** Investigate Gitea API updates or create web automation to add issues to project board.
---
## Future Enhancements
Potential improvements for future Chroniclers:
1. **Project Board Automation:** Auto-add issues to project board (requires Gitea API update or web automation)
2. **Bidirectional Sync:** Update tasks.md when issues are modified in Gitea
3. **Issue Templates:** Auto-create task directory structure in `docs/tasks/`
4. **Webhook Integration:** Trigger sync on Gitea push instead of pre-commit
5. **Label Management:** Auto-create missing labels if they don't exist
---
## Technical Details
### Gitea API Endpoints Used
```
GET /api/v1/repos/{owner}/{repo}/issues?state=all&limit=200
POST /api/v1/repos/{owner}/{repo}/issues
PUT /api/v1/repos/{owner}/{repo}/issues/{number}/labels
```
### Label IDs (Current as of March 2026)
```python
LABEL_IDS = {
'status/backlog': 2,
'status/to-do': 3,
'status/in-progress': 4,
'status/review': 5,
'status/blocked': 6,
'status/done': 7,
'priority/critical': 8,
'priority/high': 9,
'priority/medium': 10,
'priority/low': 11,
# ... (see script for complete list)
}
```
**Note:** If labels are added/removed in Gitea, update the `LABEL_IDS` dictionary in the script.

## Credits
**Created By:** The Chronicler #36
**Date:** March 20, 2026
**Inspired By:** The need to automate what previous Chroniclers did manually
**Philosophy:** "If it's not automated, it will be forgotten"
