cnos.issues

Core Principle

cnos.issues is the package home for issue-board cognition: it owns issue taxonomy, board mapping, and Issue Pivot generation as a domain, distinct from the CLI dispatch that invokes it.

cnos.issues owns:

• issue taxonomy — the label vocabulary an issue is judged against (skills/taxonomy/SKILL.md, citing docs/development/issues/TAXONOMY.md as the canonical source, not forking it);
• triage doctrine — how a raw issue becomes coherently labeled and dispatchable (skills/triage/SKILL.md, citing docs/development/issues/TRIAGE.md);
• board mapping / Issue Pivot generation — the domain logic that fetches open issues, derives taxonomy-aware records, computes effort, and renders the interactive board (skills/map/SKILL.md).
• the generic issue-state fact model and evaluator engine — the FactSnapshot model and the transition-table evaluator that cn issues fsm evaluate (cnos#568, Phase 1) drives. This package owns the generic engine only: it is unaware of "CDS" as a concept beyond reading whatever transition-table file it is given. The CDS-specific transition table itself (states/triggers/guards/actions, declarative JSON) is owned by cnos.cds at ../cnos.cds/skills/cds/fsm/transitions.json, per cnos#568's ownership split. Phase 1 is strictly read-only: no --apply flag exists, and no code path in commands/issues-fsm/ writes a GitHub label. Label-mutation authority is Phase 2 (cnos#569).

Command-dispatch disposition

The user-facing command cn issues map is a compiled-in kernel command (SourceKernel / TierKernel), registered in src/go/cmd/cn/main.go and dispatched by the thin src/go/internal/cli/cmd_issues_map.go (argument parsing + delegation only).

The Go domain implementation — issuesmap.go, fetch.go, issuesmap_test.go, templates/, testdata/ — lives under this package at commands/issues-map/, as its own Go module (module github.com/usurobor/cnos/packages/cnos.issues/commands/issues-map), mirroring the cnos#392 cdd-verify precedent exactly: wired into src/go/go.mod via a require+replace pair, added to go.work's use (...) list, and dispatched by the thin cmd_issues_map.go shim (import + one-line delegation only — no domain logic in the CLI file).

cn issues map is a temporary built-in shim until #216: dispatch stays through the compiled-in kernel registration, not the package-command exec-dispatch mechanism (PACKAGE-SYSTEM.md §7). commands/issues-map/ under this package is Go-source co-location, not a declared package command: cn.package.json's commands object does not list issues-map (matching cnos.cdd/cn.package.json, which likewise has no cdd-verify entry despite cdd-verify's Go source living under cnos.cdd/commands/cdd-verify/). Declaring one would create a dead entry — the kernel built-in always shadows a same-named package command silently per the command-discovery precedence rule — and would misrepresent the command as package-provided exec-dispatch when it is not.

A future #216 cycle may move issues-map onto real package-command exec-dispatch: removing the kernel registration in main.go, adding a commands.issues-map entry to this package's cn.package.json with a cn-issues-map entrypoint script, and adding package-install plumbing to the board-map GitHub Action. None of that is done by this package as it stands — physical co-location of the domain source is not the same as declared package-command dispatch.

cn issues fsm evaluate (cnos#568, Phase 1) has the identical disposition, mirroring issues-map exactly: a compiled-in kernel command (SourceKernel/TierKernel) registered in src/go/cmd/cn/main.go as reg.Register(&cli.IssuesFsmCmd{}), dispatched by the thin src/go/internal/cli/cmd_issues_fsm.go shim (import + one-line delegation only), with its Go domain implementation Go-source co-located under this package at commands/issues-fsm/ as its own module (module github.com/usurobor/cnos/packages/cnos.issues/commands/issues-fsm), wired into src/go/go.mod via require+replace and into root go.work's use (...) list. cn.package.json's commands object does not list issues-fsm, for the same #216-shim reason given above. Registry resolution: noun=issues, verb=fsm → registry key issues-fsm; the command's own Run then dispatches on the first remaining arg (evaluate is the only sub-verb in Phase 1 — apply is explicitly out of scope, belonging to Phase 2 / cnos#569).

Non-goals

• Does not implement generic package-command discovery (out of scope; see #216).
• Does not fork the issue taxonomy or triage doctrine — it cites the canonical docs.
• Does not change board visual semantics, effort/priority/taxonomy semantics, or dispatch/wake/CDD/label behavior.
