gitea-issues asserted flatly that a merge never closes an issue, contradicting gitea-prs' references/merging.md, which documents that closing keywords in commits landing on the default branch do close one. The qualifier that made the claim true had been deleted; both sides now agree. gitea-releases had lost an epistemic hedge and its verification step, leaving conventions.md asserting unconfirmed tag auto-creation as fact. Nothing in the research corpus sources it, so the hedge and the verify-afterward instruction are back rather than upgraded. Descriptions were cut 50-240 chars under the 400 budget and shed routing with them: gitea-workflow's boundary named no target, gitea-prs lost the issue/PR number-space directive the suite is built around at 163/400, gitea-releases lost its boundary and every trigger. Restored, inside budget. Also restores delete_branch's hard-refusal strength and gitea-files' Read/Write/Edit pointer.

Use when reading or writing files or directories in a Gitea repository via the MCP server,
|
|
rather than the local filesystem (for a local path use Read/Write/Edit) — even when the user
|
|
does not say "Gitea". Not commit history -> `gitea-branches`. Not pull requests -> `gitea-prs`.
|
|
|
|
compatibility: Requires the Gitea MCP server configured with a token scoped to at least
|
|
write:repository. Tested with a token holding write:issue + write:repository; write:issue
|
|
is not actually required for any of this domain's five tools.

## Gotchas
|
|
|
|
- **A 404 may mean an under-scoped token, not a missing path.** Every tool here gates on `write:repository`, and Gitea masks insufficient scope as 404. Check scopes first.
|
|
- **Reads take `ref`, writes take `branch_name`.** One concept, two parameter names — chaining a read into a write drops the branch if you carry the wrong key.
|
|
- **`content` is base64 both ways.** Encode before a write, decode after a read.
|
|
|
|
## Inputs
|
|
|
|
`owner`, `repo` and the target branch are caller-supplied. This skill never infers them from a git remote: ask the human when they are not stated, and expect an orchestrating caller to have resolved them already.
|
|
|
|
## Dispatch
|
|
|
|
Read the reference for the row you land on before making the call.
|
|
|
|
| Condition | Flow | Reference |
|
|
|---|---|---|
|
|
| Read one file, list one directory level, or walk the repository tree | Read | `references/reading.md` — the three read tools, their pagination behaviour, and why neither a directory listing nor a tree entry supplies the SHA a write needs |
|
|
| Create, update, or delete a file | Write | `references/writing.md` — the SHA-first sequence every update and delete depends on, the worked multi-call sequence, and how to triage a write that fails |
|
|
|
|
A request that reads and then writes runs both flows in that order: fetch the file first, then write with the SHA that call returned.
|
|
|
|
## Handoff
|
|
|
|
Scope ends at the commit. Gitea's own web UI edits files directly against a branch, so committing straight to a branch is the normal path rather than an escape hatch — hand off to `gitea-prs` when the change needs review before merging or the target branch is protected, not by default.
