TUI Ticket role actions	closed	2026-06-05T19:03:30Z	2026-06-05T20:09:50Z

Background

After ticket-role-pod-launcher lands, TUI should expose simple Ticket-role actions without embedding launch/profile/prompt/workflow construction logic in UI code.

This ticket is for the TUI surface only. The launcher is responsible for reading .yoi/ticket.config.toml, selecting the Profile, constructing first-run input, and launching/sending to a role Pod. TUI should call that layer and present conservative, understandable actions.

Goal

Add TUI actions for fixed Ticket roles using the shared Ticket role launcher.

The initial UI should favor explicit command/action entry over broad dashboard redesign. It should make it possible to start the relevant role Pod for a Ticket-oriented task while preserving human/orchestrator control.

Requirements

• Depend on the shared ticket-role-pod-launcher API; do not duplicate launch construction in TUI.
• Support fixed Ticket role actions:
  • Intake / refine Ticket;
  • Route Ticket with Orchestrator;
  • Investigate Ticket;
  • Implement Ticket;
  • Review Ticket.
• Use .yoi/ticket.config.toml indirectly through the launcher.
• Show clear diagnostics/notices when:
  • Ticket config is malformed;
  • backend root is unusable;
  • selected Profile is invalid or spawn fails;
  • required Ticket id/slug/context is missing.
• Keep actions explicit and user-triggered. Do not introduce automatic scheduling.
• Do not add a spawned-Pod panel in this ticket.
• Do not add a generic arbitrary-role launcher UI.
• Do not bypass Ticket Intake / Orchestrator Routing / Preflight / Multi-agent Workflow gates.
• Prefer command/actionbar integration first if that is less invasive than adding a new full screen.

Candidate command surface

Exact names may change during implementation, but the MVP should be close to:

:ticket intake <ticket-or-new-context>
:ticket route <ticket-id-or-slug>
:ticket investigate <ticket-id-or-slug>
:ticket implement <ticket-id-or-slug>
:ticket review <ticket-id-or-slug>

If current TUI command parsing makes nested subcommands awkward, use a simpler MVP shape such as:

:ticket-intake ...
:ticket-route ...
:ticket-investigate ...
:ticket-implement ...
:ticket-review ...

Non-goals

• Implementing the role launcher.
• TUI spawned child Pod panel.
• Multi-Pod dashboard redesign.
• Scheduler/lease/queue automation.
• Stateful workflow engine.
• TicketUpdate tool.
• Worktree creation automation beyond what the launcher/Multi-agent Workflow already describes.
• Generic Role registry/UI.
• Arbitrary filesystem Ticket edits.

Acceptance criteria

• TUI has user-triggered Ticket role actions/commands for the fixed roles or a clearly documented MVP subset.
• Actions call the shared launcher rather than building spawn requests directly.
• Role action failures surface as actionbar/command diagnostics without crashing TUI.
• The command/action help text makes clear what each role does.
• TUI tests cover parsing/execution path for actions and at least one failure diagnostic.
• cargo test -p tui or focused TUI tests pass.
• cargo test -p client passes if the launcher crate is touched by integration.
• cargo check --workspace --all-targets, cargo fmt --check, git diff --check, and ./tickets.sh doctor pass.

Dependencies

• Requires ticket-role-pod-launcher.
