Show when an issue or pull request was opened, last updated, closed, and merged, so age-based triage can be read from forge output instead of being bracketed from the commit dates of neighbouring pull requests.

Primary goals:

Timestamps in the view header — forge issue view and forge pr view print Created: and Updated: lines beside State: and Author:, plus Closed: when closed.
Merge state on pull requests — forge pr view prints Merged: yes <date> or Merged: no for a closed pull request, and the pr snapshot JSON carries the same fields.
Dates as ISO days — the same YYYY-MM-DD form the comment lines already use, so a script can compare them without parsing prose.

Current state and specifics

Both view commands print State, Author, Labels, Milestone, or Branch, and nothing dated. Comment lines carry [YYYY-MM-DD], so an issue's last activity is readable only when it has comments; an issue with none has no visible age at all. The forge-groom skill in allod/memory labels an item stale after 30 days without a comment or commit and surfaces decision items after 30 days open, and on 2026-09-10 both thresholds had to be approximated: an issue's creation date was bounded by the head-commit dates of the nearest lower and higher pull request numbers in the same repository, which leaves a window of weeks in sparse repositories (allod/vm, allod/secrets, allod/profiles) and no answer at all for the oldest issues.

Scope

In: the header lines of issue view and pr view, and the corresponding fields in pr snapshot. Out: dated columns in issue list and pr list, which can follow once the view output has settled; the pr list state filter and merged marker, tracked in allod/tools#193.
