Defame1297 6cfc3577e2 docs: trim repeated boilerplate in git, gitea, and bin skills
Finding 13: five blocks of near-identical wording were repeated across
skills within a plugin — the gitea "resolve owner and repo" step (5
skills), the 404-masks-403 note (6 files), the manual pagination
explanation (8 files), the git plugin's main/master force-push refusal
(7 files, some with multiple internal restatements), and the bin
skills' domain-glossary/ADR paragraph (5 skills). Tightened each
instance in place — same meaning, fewer words — rather than extracting
to a shared file, which ADR-0014's one-file-per-skill install
constraint rules out. Left the three git skills' structured-result
JSON shapes alone (coupled to the separate, out-of-scope git-orchestrate
merge candidate, finding 19).

name: gitea-labels-milestones
description: >
Use when reading or writing Gitea labels or milestones — "create a label", "what labels does
this repo have", "close the milestone" — or to resolve label names to IDs, or infer a
Kind/Priority/Status label from context, even when the user does not say "Gitea".
Not applying them to an issue -> `gitea-issues`. Not to a PR -> `gitea-prs`.
compatibility: Requires Gitea MCP server configured with write:issue and write:repository token scopes.

## Gotchas
- **Applying a label needs a numeric ID; issue/PR responses give only name strings.** Resolve name → ID with `label_read` first.
- **`pull_request_read` returns `milestone` as a bare title string, `issue_read` as `{id, title}`.** Recover the ID by listing milestones and matching the title.
- **Never assume a `Kind/*`/`Priority/*`/`Status/*` scope is exclusive — read each label's `exclusive` field.** `list_repo_labels` always returns it; `label_write` can only set it via org create methods ("org only"). `true` means Gitea enforces one-per-scope; replacing instead of stacking on a `false` label destroys a valid one.
## Step 1 — Resolve owner, repo and org
Extract `owner` and `repo` from the git remote before any tool call (skip if an orchestrating caller already passed them in):
```bash
rtk git remote get-url origin
```
No origin, or not a Gitea URL: stop and report "No Gitea remote found — set origin to your Gitea instance URL."
The `*_org_label*` methods take `org`, not `owner`/`repo`. Pass that same `owner` as `org` — it's the org name whenever the owner is an organisation, which the remote URL doesn't say.
Read the failure text before interpreting it: `list_org_labels` needs `read:organization`, which this skill's declared scopes don't carry, so it fails with a scope error *before* it ever checks org-vs-user. Report the unchecked scope, not an empty pool — only a genuine not-found means the owner is a user account with no org pool.
## Step 2 — Dispatch
| Task | Tool | method |
|---|---|---|
| Resolve a label name to its ID | `label_read` | `"list_repo_labels"`, then `"list_org_labels"` |
| List repo labels | `label_read` | `"list_repo_labels"` |
| Get one repo label by ID | `label_read` | `"get_repo_label"` |
| List org labels | `label_read` | `"list_org_labels"` |
| Create a repo/org label | `label_write` | `"create_repo_label"` / `"create_org_label"` |
| Edit a repo/org label | `label_write` | `"edit_repo_label"` / `"edit_org_label"` |
| Delete a repo/org label | `label_write` | `"delete_repo_label"` / `"delete_org_label"` |
| List milestones | `milestone_read` | `"list"` |
| Get one milestone by ID | `milestone_read` | `"get"` |
| Create a milestone | `milestone_write` | `"create"` |
| Update / close a milestone | `milestone_write` | `"update"` |
| Delete a milestone | `milestone_write` | `"delete"` |
Every list method paginates manually (`per_page` default 30) — iterate `page: 1, 2, ...` until a page returns fewer than `per_page`. A truncated list silently breaks name → ID resolution.
If the task is a label operation, read `references/labels.md`; if a milestone operation, read `references/milestones.md`. If the label to apply has to be derived from conversation context rather than named, read `references/label-inference.md`.
