Is there an existing issue for this?
- I have searched the existing issues

Please add an option to restrict a member so they can create issues and manage only issues they created, but cannot edit or delete other members' issues.
Why should this be worked on?
Members should be restricted to managing their own issues without changing other members' issues.

Hi! I'd be interested in contributing to this feature.
I'm exploring Plane's existing workspace/project permission architecture and would like to understand how this restriction should interact with the current member roles.
A few things I'd like to clarify before proposing an implementation:
I'd be happy to investigate the existing authorization flow and propose a minimal implementation that preserves current permission behavior.
Is anyone already working on this feature?

Thanks for offering to help. For this use case, I'd suggest a project-level restriction for regular members; admins keep their existing permissions. Restricted members can create issues and manage all fields of their own issues, but cannot modify or delete anyone else's.
I don't see anyone assigned yet, but the Plane maintainers should confirm contribution plans.

Thanks for clarifying! That makes the expected behavior much clearer.
I'll investigate Plane's existing project-level permission and issue authorization flow to understand how this can fit into the current architecture.
I'll also check the relevant API endpoints and test coverage before proposing an implementation.
I'll wait for maintainer confirmation before starting any code changes.
