Hey @jayjay3108 — quick update after digging deeper.

The blocker is still the upstream Projects API work in Gitea, tracked in:

• [FEATURE] API for projects go-gitea/gitea#14299 – core Projects/boards API
• API support for columns go-gitea/gitea#31769 – follow-up for columns & cards (the bits that actually hold issues)
• Add project workflow feature so users can define how to execute steps when project related events fired go-gitea/gitea#30205 – first PR that starts wiring those endpoints together

Why they matter

Item	What it gives us	Status
#14299	Create/list/update/delete boards	Open – targeted for ≥ v1.25
#31769	API for columns & cards (so we can place issues/PRs in lanes)	Open
#30205	Draft implementation of the above	In review

Once those land in a stable release, we can:

1. Detect Gitea ≥ the version that ships the new API.
2. Auto-create a matching project board, its columns, and drop each mirrored Issue/PR into the right column.
3. Ship the feature behind a beta flag, then make it the default after some real-world soak time.

I’ll keep this thread updated as soon as upstream merges the pieces we need. Thanks for hanging in there!
