-## Terminal UI Design
+## Ticket Visibility Levels

-The application uses a retro terminal aesthetic with:
- **Box-drawing characters**: ╔═╗║╚═╝┌─┐│└─┘
- **Monospace fonts**: Courier New, Consolas, Monaco
- **Terminal colors**: Green (#00ff41), Amber (#ffb000), Cyan (#00ffff)
- **CRT effects**: Scanlines, subtle flicker
- **Glow effects**: Text shadows for terminal phosphor look
- **ASCII art**: Boot sequence, empty states, headers
-
-## Configuration
-
-### Environment Variables (`.env`)
-```ini
-DB_HOST=10.10.10.50
-DB_USER=tinkertickets
-DB_PASS=password
-DB_NAME=ticketing_system
-DISCORD_WEBHOOK_URL=https://discord.com/api/webhooks/...
-```
-
-**CRITICAL**: `.env` is gitignored! Never commit this file.
-
-## Deployment
-
-### Git Auto-Deploy
-**Repository**: https://code.lotusguild.org/LotusGuild/tinker_tickets
-
-**Flow**:
-1. Push to `main` branch
-2. Auto-deploys to `/root/code/tinker_tickets` on 10.10.10.45
-3. `.env` is preserved
-
-## Development Guidelines
-
-### Code Style
- **PHP**: Tabs for indentation, prepared statements, `htmlspecialchars()` for output
- **JavaScript**: Vanilla JS, `fetch()` for AJAX, clear function names
- **CSS**: CSS variables for theming, mobile-responsive
- **Security**: No SQL injection, XSS prevention, session validation
-
-### Error Handling
- APIs return JSON with `{success: bool, error: string}`
- Debug logging to `/tmp/api_debug.log`
- User-friendly error messages
-
-### Adding New Features
-1. **Model**: Add methods to relevant Model class
-2. **API**: Create API endpoint in `api/` (with auth check)
-3. **Controller**: Update controller to load data
-4. **View**: Add UI elements
-5. **JavaScript**: Add interactivity
-6. **CSS**: Style with terminal aesthetic
-7. **Test**: Test thoroughly before pushing
+- **Public**: All authenticated users can view
+- **Internal**: Only users in specified groups can view
+- **Confidential**: Only creator, assignee, and admins can view

 ## Important Notes for AI Assistants

-1. **All features are complete and deployed**
-2. **Terminal UI redesign is complete** - maintain the aesthetic
-3. **Database at 10.10.10.50**, can't access directly from dev machine
-4. **Auto-deploy is active**, test carefully before pushing
-5. **Session format**: `$_SESSION['user']['user_id']` (not `$_SESSION['user_id']`)
-6. **API auth**: Check `$_SESSION['user']['user_id']` exists
-7. **Admin check**: `$_SESSION['user']['is_admin'] ?? false`
-8. **Config path**: `config/config.php` (not `config/db.php`)
-9. **Comments table**: `ticket_comments` (not `comments`)
-10. **CSRF**: Required for POST/DELETE requests via `X-CSRF-Token` header

+8. **Ticket linking**: Use `#123456789` in markdown-enabled comments
+9. **User groups**: Stored in `users.groups` as comma-separated values
