tea issues list --repo <owner>/<repo> --login <login> -o simple

# Add filters to the same repository-scoped command.

Tips

• Do not use bare tea issues list when the user asks for issues for the current repository; in multi-repo logins it can return issues across repositories.

• Prefer -o simple for listing; use --output json only when parsing with jq

• --kind pulls searches PRs with the same filters as issues
