hack-tickets

Use the hack tickets extension (git-backed JSONL event log) to create/list/show/sync lightweight tickets. Trigger when asked to track work items, decisions, or bugs inside a repo without external issue trackers. Prefer `hack x tickets ...` commands; store lives on hidden ref `refs/hack/tickets` by default.

    }
  }
}

Data model

  • Tickets are derived from an append-only event log (JSONL).
  • Local state lives in .hack/tickets/ (gitignored on the main branch).
  • Sync writes commits to a dedicated ref (refs/hack/tickets hidden by default) and pushes to your remote.
  • Set controlPlane.tickets.git.refMode to heads to use a normal branch ref (and protect it if desired).

Tips

  • Keep ticket titles short; put detail in --body.
  • Use --json for agent workflows and piping.
  • Run hack x tickets sync before opening PRs if you want tickets to travel with the repo.
