Feature detail: Interactive browse loop

Parent roadmap: ../features-for-redmine_tickets-sync
Status: MVP+ polish 2026-07-15
Module: redmine_ticket_browse.py

Flow

1. Filtered ticket list via fzf (preview pane) or numbered pick
2. Enter → Markdown pager (glow / bat / batcat / cat)
3. After pager → action menu
4. Back to list until Esc/q

Actions (queue-safe)

Key	Behavior
v / Enter	View again
n / p	Queue internal / private note
f	Queue field update (names)
t	Local control-tag
c	ticket-contact handoff
e	Pattern entities
m	NMI cs-brief → confirm → private note draft
i	Print id
l / q	List / quit

Flags

• --where, --status, --control-tag, --has-attachments, --open-only
• --max-tickets, --order, --pager, --once, --no-preview

Done polish

• fzf header lists actions
• fzf preview pane
• loud draft banner
• NMI menu action

Non-goals

• Full curses app (separate spike)
• Customer-email from browse (CLI-only by design)
• Applying prod writes from browse without draft step
