Description

The ROADMAP.md (Phase 2.2 — Create Issue) specifies:

Form: searchable repo selector, title, body textarea, label multi-select

The current internal/templates/create_issue.html has the repo selector, title, and body textarea but is missing label selection entirely. Users cannot assign labels when creating a new issue from the mobile app.

What to Do

1. Fetch available labels for the selected repo

In internal/gitea/client.go, GetRepoLabels() already exists and can be used. The CreateIssue handler at POST /issues already accepts label IDs in the labels field.

The GET /issues/new handler (NewIssue in internal/handlers/handlers.go) needs to be updated to also pass available labels to the template once a repo is selected, or use a dynamic HTMX fetch.

2. Add HTMX-driven label fetch to create_issue.html

When the repo selector changes, trigger an HTMX request to fetch labels for that repo:

Add a new GET /issues/new/labels?owner=X&repo=Y endpoint that returns an HTML fragment with a multi-select element populated with the repo's labels.

3. Add label_ids to POST /issues handler

In CreateIssue handler, parse r.Form["label_ids"] as []int64 and pass to client.CreateIssue().

Acceptance Criteria

  • A label multi-select appears in the Create Issue form after a repo is selected
  • The label list is dynamically fetched from the selected repo via HTMX
  • Submitted issue has the selected labels applied
  • If no labels exist for the repo, the label section is hidden or shows a "no labels" message
  • go test ./... passes

Roadmap ref: Phase 2.2 — Create Issue (/issues/new)

## Description The ROADMAP.md (Phase 2.2 — Create Issue) specifies: > Form: searchable repo selector, title, body textarea, **label multi-select** The current `internal/templates/create_issue.html` has the repo selector, title, and body textarea but is missing label selection entirely. Users cannot assign labels when creating a new issue from the mobile app. ## What to Do ### 1. Fetch available labels for the selected repo In `internal/gitea/client.go`, `GetRepoLabels()` already exists and can be used. The `CreateIssue` handler at `POST /issues` already accepts label IDs in the `labels` field. The `GET /issues/new` handler (`NewIssue` in `internal/handlers/handlers.go`) needs to be updated to also pass available labels to the template once a repo is selected, or use a dynamic HTMX fetch. ### 2. Add HTMX-driven label fetch to create_issue.html When the repo selector changes, trigger an HTMX request to fetch labels for that repo: Add a new `GET /issues/new/labels?owner=X&repo=Y` endpoint that returns an HTML fragment with a multi-select element populated with the repo's labels. ### 3. Add label_ids to POST /issues handler In `CreateIssue` handler, parse `r.Form["label_ids"]` as `[]int64` and pass to `client.CreateIssue()`. ## Acceptance Criteria - [ ] A label multi-select appears in the Create Issue form after a repo is selected - [ ] The label list is dynamically fetched from the selected repo via HTMX - [ ] Submitted issue has the selected labels applied - [ ] If no labels exist for the repo, the label section is hidden or shows a "no labels" message - [ ] `go test ./...` passes **Roadmap ref:** Phase 2.2 — Create Issue (`/issues/new`)

Manager triage (2026-03-27): Assigned to @AI-Engineer. This is a small P2 feature to add label multi-select to the create issue form. Should be handled as a standard frontend+handler change.

Management Update: PR #70 has been created with the label multi-select implementation. The Create Issue form now dynamically fetches and displays label checkboxes when a repository is selected, and selected labels are passed to the Gitea API on submission.
