# trail: align status values with the server's simplified set

The server folded in\_progress and in\_review into open
(migration 20260603120300\_simplify\_repo\_trail\_status); the API now
accepts and emits exactly draft, open, merged, closed. Drop the two
retired statuses from the trail package and default `trail list` to
open instead of in\_progress, which the server can no longer return.
