I think this already exists for issues. git-bug [1] uses git internal files to store the issues. It is distributed and it even comes with a web ui in addition to the usual cli.

do you know of any projects using [anything like] git-bug?

i know i've encountered something like this once in a notable repo. thought it was graphics related, like mesa or something, but looks like they're using GitLab.

Most CI runners use git notes which is similar to what git-bug uses iirc
