enhancement: phase 3 roadmap — add bulk admin workflows and smarter request creation #86
Description
Problem / motivation
A lot of real Seerr administration is collection-oriented rather than object-oriented.
Current workflows would benefit from:
- bulk operations for requests, watchlist, and blocklist management
- smarter request creation with duplicate detection and better defaults
Proposed solution
Add higher-level workflows that improve day-to-day admin and user actions.
Scope:
- bulk approve/decline/retry request flows
- bulk watchlist/blocklist cleanup operations where appropriate
- smarter request creation with duplicate detection and clearer preflight feedback
- improved selection of server/profile defaults where feasible
Alternatives considered
Continue exposing only single-item CRUD style actions. This keeps the API surface simpler but misses a lot of practical workflow value.
Additional context
This issue intentionally excludes TUI work.
Suggested checklist:
- Design bulk operation UX and safety model
- Add dry-run or confirmation support where needed
- Add duplicate detection before request creation
- Add tests for workflow behaviour
