The retrofit (dfacf05) collapsed a Gotcha into a bidirectional claim —
"deleting a tag never deletes the release wrapping it" — that
references/call-signatures.md never confirms; that file explicitly
marks the reverse direction unconfirmed and "the more dangerous
direction to get wrong." State only the confirmed direction (deleting
a release doesn't delete its tag) and flag the reverse as unconfirmed
with a verification step, on a destructive, irreversible operation.
Found by an independent post-closure audit of #99 (agent-audit +
skill-audit re-run against every changed skill/agent).

Use when managing Gitea releases or the git tags underneath them — list, get,

create, or delete either — even when the user does not say "release" or
|
|
"Gitea". Not branches or commit history -> `gitea-branches`.

## Gotchas
|
|
|
|
- **Deleting a release never deletes its tag.** A release is a metadata wrapper around a tag, so removing both takes two independent destructive calls. The reverse — whether deleting a tag deletes its release — is *unconfirmed*; verify with `list_releases`/`get_release` after `delete_tag` rather than assume it survives.
|
|
- **`is_draft`/`is_pre_release` are booleans the caller sets — Gitea never infers a prerelease from a `-beta`/`-rc` tag name.** The response object names them `draft`/`prerelease`; passing `draft` as an input key is silently ignored, not rejected.
|
|
- **`list_releases`/`list_tags` default `per_page` to 20**, where most other gitea-mcp list tools default to 30 — a caller assuming 30 under-counts the pages a full sweep needs.

## Dispatch table
|
|
|
|
| Action | Tool | Required params | Optional params |
|
|
|---|---|---|---|
|
|
| List releases | `list_releases` | `owner`, `repo` | `is_draft`, `is_pre_release`, `page` (default 1), `per_page` (default 20) |
|
|
| Get one release | `get_release` | `owner`, `repo`, `id` (number) | — |
|
|
| Get latest release | `get_latest_release` | `owner`, `repo` | — |
|
|
| Create release | `create_release` | `owner`, `repo`, `tag_name`, `target`, `title` | `body`, `is_draft`, `is_pre_release` |
|
|
| Delete release | `delete_release` | `owner`, `repo`, `id` (number) | — |
|
|
| List tags | `list_tags` | `owner`, `repo` | `page` (default 1), `per_page` (default 20) |
|
|
| Get one tag | `get_tag` | `owner`, `repo`, `tag_name` | — |
|
|
| Create tag | `create_tag` | `owner`, `repo`, `tag_name` | `target`, `message` |
|
|
| Delete tag | `delete_tag` | `owner`, `repo`, `tag_name` | — |
|
|
|
|
`target` (on `create_release`/`create_tag`) is a commitish — a branch name, existing tag, or commit SHA — the point the new tag is cut from.
|
|
|
|
## Workflow
|
|
|
|
- [ ] **Creating a release:** Call `create_release` with `tag_name`, `target`, and `title`. Gitea is assumed to create the tag from `target` when `tag_name` does not yet exist — plausible from the API shape, not confirmed in the research docs — so a separate `create_tag` is only needed to tag a commit without wrapping it in a release. Verify with `get_tag` afterward if the caller depends on it.
|
|
- [ ] **Deleting a release:** `delete_release` takes the numeric `id` and never a `tag_name`; `delete_tag` is the mirror opposite and never takes an id. With only a tag name in hand, resolve the id through `list_releases` (paginating if needed) or `get_release` first.
|
|
- [ ] **Deleting a tag along with its release:** Delete the release first, then call `delete_tag` — confirm both are intended before proceeding, since each is irreversible on its own.
|
|
- [ ] **Listing every page:** Loop `page: 1, 2, 3...` until a response returns fewer than `per_page` entries. Nothing here auto-paginates.
|
|
|
|
If exact input params or response field shapes are needed, read `references/call-signatures.md`. If the caller raises semver tag naming, release-notes sourcing, or how a release relates to its tag, read `references/conventions.md`.
