glab(1)

πŸ’– glab-issue-list β€” like, the whole manual but make it make sense πŸ’–

okay so bestie, this is a page from the glab(1) manual β€” yes, the actual grown-up manpage β€” and it's all about glab-issue-list, aka the command that lists your project's issues. sit down, grab a lil beverage πŸ“, and let's get into it.


✨ NAME ✨

glab-issue-list β€” List project issues. that's it, that's the whole name. iconic behavior honestly πŸ‘‘


πŸ¦‹ SYNOPSIS πŸ¦‹

glab issue list [flags]

literally just the command plus whatever flags you wanna throw at it. very demure, very mindful.


🌸 DESCRIPTION 🌸

by default it shows you open items β€” like, the ones that are still alive and kicking πŸ’….

but if you wanna look at a group instead of whatever project you're currently standing in, use --group. that's the whole vibe. easy.


πŸŽ€ OPTIONS πŸŽ€

okay here's the big one. every single flag, no gatekeeping, no cap:

  • -A, --all[=false] β€” Get all issues. all of 'em. the whole pile 😭
  • -a, --assignee="" β€” Filter issue by assignee, @me, @none (unassigned), or @any (assigned). so you can be like "whose problem is this" and also "literally mine".
  • --author="" β€” Filter issue by author. who wrote it, basically.
  • -c, --closed[=false] β€” Get only closed issues. rest in peace πŸͺ¦
  • -C, --confidential[=false] β€” Filter by confidential issues. shhh 🀫
  • --created-after= β€” Filter issues created after a certain date (RFC 3339, for example 2026-10-01T00:00:00Z).
  • --created-before= β€” Filter issues created before a certain date (RFC 3339, for example 2026-10-01T00:00:00Z).
  • -e, --epic=0 β€” List issues belonging to a given epic (requires --group, no pagination support). ⚠️ heads up: this one needs --group and pagination just doesn't exist here, so don't come for it.
  • -g, --group="" β€” Select a group or subgroup. Ignored if a repo argument is set. like, if you already said which repo, this flag just minds its business.
  • --in="title,description" β€” Search in: title, description. this tells --search where to look πŸ‘€
  • -t, --issue-type="" β€” Filter issue by its type. Options: issue, incident, test_case.
  • -i, --iteration=0 β€” Filter issue by iteration.
  • --jq="" β€” Filter JSON output with a jq expression. for the jq girlies 🧚
  • -l, --label=[] β€” Filter issue by label. Multiple labels can be comma-separated or specified by repeating the flag. yes you can stack 'em πŸ’…
  • -m, --milestone="" β€” Filter issue by milestone.
  • --not-assignee="" β€” Filter issue by not being assigned to. the "not my circus" filter πŸŽͺ
  • --not-author="" β€” Filter issue by not being by author(s).
  • --not-label=[] β€” Filter issue by lack of label. Multiple labels can be comma-separated or specified by repeating the flag.
  • --order="created_at" β€” Order issue by. Order options: created_at, updated_at, priority, due_date, relative_position, label_priority, milestone_due, popularity, weight.
  • -O, --output="text" β€” Options: 'text' or 'json'.
  • -F, --output-format="details" β€” Options: 'details', 'ids', 'urls'.
  • -p, --page=1 β€” Page number.
  • -P, --per-page=30 β€” Number of items to list per page.

  • --search="" β€” Search in the fields defined by '--in'.
  • -s, --sort="desc" β€” Sort direction for --order field: asc or desc.
  • --updated-after= β€” Filter issues updated after a certain date (RFC 3339, for example 2026-10-01T00:00:00Z).
  • --updated-before= β€” Filter issues updated before a certain date (RFC 3339, for example 2026-10-01T00:00:00Z).
ngl the date ones all want RFC 3339 format, so write it like 2026-10-01T00:00:00Z and you're golden ✨

πŸ‘‘ OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS πŸ‘‘

yep, you get the family heirlooms too:

  • -h, --help[=false] β€” Show help for this command. the classic "help me please" button 🫢

🌈 EXAMPLE 🌈

copy-paste these bad boys, they're exactly right:

glab issue list --all
glab issue ls --all
glab issue list --assignee=@me
glab issue list --milestone release-2.0.0
glab issue list --updated-after 2026-10-01T00:00:00Z

(also yes, glab issue ls works β€” same energy, shorter typing, slay πŸ’…)
