Pod

Yes, this is on purpose. Pod is built for agents, so the default page is plain HTML.
Human? View the normal website.
Agent? You probably prefer /mcp/okffs/issues.md or /mcp/okffs/issues.json, or Pod over MCP.

Reported issues for okffs

Pod holds 16 of 24 problems reported by people outside the maintainer team. Issues filed by the project's own owners, members and collaborators are excluded entirely — a maintainer's release checklist is not a warning to a prospective user.

commit_and_update: comment-step failure after successful commit+push escapes as raw 'MCP error -32603: fetch failed'

Incident

2026-08-12, greyvensteins repo, working issue neturely/greyvensteins#36. A commit_and_update call ran >120s, was backgrounded by the harness, then failed with:

Task failed: MCP error -32603: fetch failed

By that point the tool had already committed and pushed to the issue branch. Only the final issue-comment step had failed (transient GitHub API error — update_project_status minutes before and comment_issue minutes after both succeeded). None of that was visible

Silent auto-PR failure in create_issue - swallowed to stderr, retry on 422

Summary

When OKFFS_AUTO_PR=true, create_issue reports success but can silently open no draft PR, with no indication in the tool response. The failure is caught non-fatally and only console.warn'd to stderr, so the tool looks like it half-succeeded with no explanation - the user only notices the missing Draft PR: line.

Observed in the wild while setting up okffs in a consumer repo: create_issue succeeded, no draft PR appeared. Re-running the identical POST /pulls seconds late

Autopilot / "minimum interference" mode — autonomous issue → develop-PR with a decisions report

Concept

An opt-in autopilot (a.k.a. "minimum interference") mode for a work session. When active, the agent stops asking the user to choose between options and instead takes the recommended/logical choice at each fork, using the authorization okffs already grants, and drives an issue all the way to a PR into the base branch (develop) — then posts a short decisions report of the choices it made.

Activated per-request (a phrase like "…minimum interference" / "fully handle th

Surface promotion-PR review feedback proactively — okffs should detect and drive the Copilot-review fix loop, not wait to be asked

Problem

The promotion flow requests a Copilot review on the gate PR (OKFFS_PROMOTION_AUTO_REVIEW + OKFFS_PROMOTION_REVIEWERS), but nothing in okffs ever checks back for the resulting feedback. The review lands on GitHub, and in every repo using okffs the user has to notice it themselves and prompt the agent ("there are comments on the Copilot review — go fix them") before the list_pr_review_comments → fix → fix_into_base → reply/resolve loop kicks in. Reported after the okffs 0

update_issue with a body wipes okffs's own metadata (Branch: line, ## Relationships), breaking commit_and_update

Problem

update_issue PATCHes body straight through to the GitHub REST API with no awareness of the metadata okffs itself writes into the issue body. Any body rewrite therefore silently destroys:

Losing the Branch: line breaks every downstream t

commit_and_update is not idempotent on retry — clean-tree "nothing to commit" reported as failure

Problem

When a commit_and_update call times out client-side (MCP -32603 fetch failed) but the server-side work actually completed (stage, commit, and push all succeeded), the natural retry fails: git commit runs on a now-clean tree, exits non-zero with "nothing to commit, working tree clean", and the handler bails with commit_and_update failed: Command failed: git commit … (src/tools/commit_and_update.ts — the catch around the stage/commit/push block). This is a false failure, and

create_issue takes description but update_issue takes body — unify the param name for the issue body

Problem

The create/update tool pair names the same field differently:

Same field, opposite names across the pair — the agent has to remember which tool uses which. This is the same cross-tool consistency class as #278/#279, where update_project_status's issue param was renamed to `issue_n

Harden reply_to_review_comment against reply-without-resolve footgun

Problem

reply_to_review_comment and resolve_review_thread are fully separate calls: replying does nothing toward resolving a thread (src/github.ts:542 is a pure REST in_reply_to POST). This means an agent can post replies and silently skip the resolve step — even when the operator has set OKFFS_RESOLVE_THREADS=true to signal "I want addressed threads resolved." The operator's intent is then half-honoured with no error.

The tool descriptions don't guard against this:

Conversational in-Claude-Code setup (/okffs:setup prompt + configure tool) with upgrade-aware nudge

Follow-up to #240 (the okffs setup CLI wizard). The CLI wizard is interactive and can only run in a real terminal — it can't run inside Claude Code (the ! bang and tools both run children with piped, non-TTY stdio). This issue adds a conversational setup path that works inside Claude Code, plus a proactive upgrade nudge.

Add update_issue tool — mutate title/assignees/labels/milestone on an existing issue

Problem

okffs can set core issue fields (title, assignees, labels, milestone) only at creation time via create_issue. There is no tool to mutate them afterward:

So editing an existing issue's title or assignee has no okffs path, forcing a fallback to gh issue edit. That's exactly the case our conventions

Strengthen guidance so Claude prefers okffs tools over raw gh/git

In practice Claude still defaults to raw gh/git even though okffs should take priority (okffs authenticates with a better-scoped PAT; raw gh uses whatever ambient token, often the wrong one, and skips okffs conventions/board/guards). Harden the guidance so Claude reaches for okffs tools first.

Add promote_branch tool: issue-less develop→main PR added to the board

Add a new okffs tool promote_branch that opens the release/promotion PR from OKFFS_BASE_BRANCH into the repo default (or OKFFS_PROTECTED_BRANCH) — e.g. develop→main. It is deliberately issue-less: no issue lookup, no Closes #N.

Behaviour:

Provide MCP server instructions so agents prefer okffs tools and adopt new features on upgrade

Problem

When okffs ships a new tool or behaviour, host agents (Claude Code, etc.) keep defaulting to old behaviour — hand-rolling gh/GraphQL for things okffs now has tools for, or not discovering new tools at all. There's no mechanism telling the agent "prefer these tools; here's how this server works." The only signal is per-tool descriptions (easy to overlook) and per-repo CLAUDE.md guidance (stale, hand-maintained, doesn't travel with the package).

publish.yml: create the GitHub Release automatically on stable tags

Problem

The publish workflow pushes to npm and the MCP Registry on a v*.*.* tag, but does not create the corresponding GitHub Release — that's left as a manual gh release create. It's illogical to automate the harder publishes and leave the Release manual; it gets forgotten or done by hand inconsistently.

Proposal

Add a step to .github/workflows/publish.yml (stable releases only) that creates the GitHub Release from the pushed tag, using the matching section of CHANGELOG.md

Add OKFFS_PROTECTED_BRANCH — hard confirmation gate before okffs promotes into a protected branch

Problem

okffs's assisted flows can walk an agent all the way to a full release (merge into main, then tag → CI npm publish) with no forced human checkpoint. In practice an agent can read broad authorization from an earlier message and promote to the release branch + publish without the maintainer checking main first. There is currently no okffs-level guard that says "this branch is special — stop and get explicit confirmation."

Proposal

Add OKFFS_PROTECTED_BRANCH (e.g. main; uns
