• Added saved search names
• Added persistence across browser sessions
• Added rerun functionality with all saved filters restored

Pull request overview

Adds “saved searches” to the Issue Finder, persisting user-selected filters (tech/label/sort/linked PR/Hacktoberfest) in browser localStorage so searches can be rerun or deleted across sessions.

Changes:

• Introduces typed localStorage persistence utilities for saved searches (load/add/delete + validation).
• Extends the Issue Finder UI to save the current filter set under a user-provided name, list saved searches, rerun them, and delete them.
• Adds a search “override” pathway so rerunning a saved search uses the saved parameters immediately.

src/features/issues/components/issue-finder.tsx:126

• The body of handleRunSavedSearch is not indented consistently with the rest of this file; formatting it will improve readability and keep the file consistent.

  setTech(savedSearch.tech);
  setLabel(savedSearch.label);
  setSort(savedSearch.sort);
  setLinkedPr(savedSearch.linkedPr);
  setHacktoberfest(savedSearch.hacktoberfest);

src/features/issues/components/issue-finder.tsx:141

• The searchIssues parameter list and the initial override-handling block are not indented consistently (compared to the rest of the function and surrounding code), which hurts readability and can trip format/lint checks.

  async function searchIssues(
  event?: FormEvent<HTMLFormElement>,
  searchOverride?: {
    tech: string;
    label: string;

src/features/issues/components/issue-finder.tsx:413

• The new "Saved searches" <Card> block has inconsistent JSX indentation (child components are less-indented than the parent), which makes this section much harder to scan and maintain.

          <Card>
  <CardHeader>
    <CardTitle className="text-base">Saved searches</CardTitle>
    <CardDescription>
      Save your current filters and reuse them later.

the implementation is well separated and validates stored records, but I recommend addressing these two reliability issues before merging. I've synced with main for you, take a pull before making any further changes

Addressed the requested review feedback:

• Disabled the Run button while a search is loading or cooldown is active.
• Updated saved-search persistence so the UI is only updated after storage succeeds.
• Added error handling for storage failures.

Also verified locally with git diff --check and npm run build.

The latest changes are pushed to the PR.
