The mod-nag workflow in workflows/.forgejo/workflows/mod-nag.yaml needs to search issues by label + free-text query + walk pages to find existing/stale findings. Today these calls still need raw curl, because fj issue list only takes --state and --limit.

To replace the remaining curl calls in mod-nag with fj, the following flags would be needed on fj issue list (and the issues alias):

--label <name> (repeatable) — filter by one or more label names, forwarded as labels=<id,id,...> after resolving names to IDs via FetchLabels.
--search <query> / -q <query> — full-text search forwarded as q=<urlencoded>.
--page <n> — explicit page number, combined with the existing --limit, to walk all results.

A --json already exists globally and is what mod-nag consumes; these new filters just need to flow into the query path.

Context: workflows uses these for:

searching open + closed issues by title fragment (vuln ID, module path)
paginating the full open-issue list scoped to mod-nag label for stale-cleanup

Endpoint shape (forgejo GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/issues):

type=issues&state=<state>&labels=<id,id>&q=<text>&limit=<n>&page=<n>

The mod-nag workflow in `workflows/.forgejo/workflows/mod-nag.yaml` needs to search issues by label + free-text query + walk pages to find existing/stale findings. Today these calls still need raw `curl`, because `fj issue list` only takes `--state` and `--limit`. To replace the remaining curl calls in mod-nag with `fj`, the following flags would be needed on `fj issue list` (and the `issues` alias): - `--label <name>` (repeatable) — filter by one or more label names, forwarded as `labels=<id,id,...>` after resolving names to IDs via `FetchLabels`. - `--search <query>` / `-q <query>` — full-text search forwarded as `q=<urlencoded>`. - `--page <n>` — explicit page number, combined with the existing `--limit`, to walk all results. A `--json` already exists globally and is what mod-nag consumes; these new filters just need to flow into the query path. Context: workflows uses these for: - searching open + closed issues by title fragment (vuln ID, module path) - paginating the full open-issue list scoped to `mod-nag` label for stale-cleanup Endpoint shape (forgejo `GET /repos/{owner}/{repo}/issues`): type=issues&state=<state>&labels=<id,id>&q=<text>&limit=<n>&page=<n>
