[task] Design safe workflow actions for future writes #25

Closed as not planned

Description

@phongndo

Goal

Design the safe write-action model for future workflow actions.

Why this matters

Nexgit should prove read-only GitHub workflow state before mutating GitHub. Once write actions are added, contributors and maintainers need explicit target confirmation and dry-run previews.

Command/API target

Produce a maintainer-owned design note for future actions such as issue claim/unclaim, review thread reply/resolve, and check rerun.

Depends on

  • v0.1 app-server data methods for the read-only state model.

Out of scope

  • Do not implement write actions in this issue.
  • Do not add OAuth or direct token management.
  • Do not design non-GitHub providers.

Definition of done

  • The design states which write actions are first.
  • The design requires explicit repository target display before mutation.
  • The design defines dry-run preview expectations.
  • The design lists permission and failure cases maintainers must review before implementation.

Verification

  • Design note or issue comment reviewed by a maintainer.
  • Any repo-doc change runs pnpm format:prettier:check.
