## Behavior

* **Includes Topics**: Returns topics currently in this stage
* **Paginated**: Topics are paginated for performance
* **Sortable**: Topics can be sorted by various fields
* **Public Only**: Private stages return 404 for non-team members

## Use Cases

* **Stage Detail View**: Show all topics in a specific stage
* **Kanban Column**: Display topics within a stage column
* **Progress Tracking**: Monitor items in each stage

## Notes

* Topics include vote and comment counts
* Returns 404 if stage is private and user is not a team member
* Pagination allows efficient loading of stages with many topics
* Stage metadata includes color for visual customization
