# TASK: mopac-redmine-go — Redmine Go CLI, TOP PRIORITY (Redmine 506)

## Context
Charles's strict self-hosting directive: "working out of redmine with a
go cli." The PMO (and every vertical) must STOP using python glue for
Redmine updates — this CLI replaces it the moment it lands. Jumped to
the top of the queue 2026-08-29 by direct order.

## Scope
1. New repo `ukrrs/mopac-redmine-go` (create via Gitea API if absent —
   tea token pattern; clone to ~/projects/meta/MOPAC/redmine-go).
   AGPLv3 LICENSE first commit.
2. Stdlib-only Go library + CLI binary `mred`:
   - Config: URL + API key via env (`MRED_URL`, `MRED_KEY`) or
     `--config` env-file (0600 discipline), key never logged.
   - Commands (JSON-friendly flags, machine-parseable `-o json`):
     - `issue list -p MOPAC [--status open|all] [--version Beta] [--limit N]`
     - `issue show ID [--with journals]`
     - `issue create -p PROJ -s SUBJECT [--desc FILE|-] [--tracker feature]`
       `[--priority immediate] [--category X] [--version V] [--due DATE]`
       `[--parent ID] [--est HOURS] [--note TEXT]`
     - `issue update ID [--status done] [--priority ...] [--category ...]`
       `[--version ...] [--due ...] [--done-ratio 100] [--desc FILE|-]`
       `[--note TEXT]` (note = journal)
     - `version list|create -p PROJ -n NAME [--due DATE] [--status open|closed]`
     - `category list|create -p PROJ -n NAME`
     - `relation create FROM TO --type blocks|relates`
   - Exit codes: 0 ok, 1 usage/config, 2 API error (status in stderr,
     one line, parseable).
3. Library surface usable by the harness later (`redmine.Client`) —
   no copy-paste temptation.
4. Fake-Redmine test suite (table-driven; the harness repo's fake server
   pattern is a good reference): create/update/note/relations/versions
   round-trips, key-redaction, error mapping.
5. Docs standard: README with verified quickstart (against the fake
   server), command reference table, status table.

## Build discipline
ALL DEV IN DOCKER (digest-pinned builder; dev.sh/Makefile family
pattern). NEVER broad pkill. Atomic conventional commits, push origin
main. TDD red/green.

## Deliverable
`REPORT-20260829-1400-redmine-cli.md` in `~/.coordinate/inbox-pmo/`:
command surface, test results, and EXACT PMO replacement mappings (the
python operations I use today -> mred one-liners) so the PMO switches on
acceptance with zero downtime.
