Defame1297 8680adf4c0 fix(gitea): make gitea-releases executable and correct misleading domain claims
gitea-releases was the weakest skill in the plugin: no allowed-tools, no
owner/repo resolution, and a checkbox list where a dispatch table belongs, so
an agent reaching it had to guess both its permissions and its inputs. The
id-vs-tag_name trap — deleting by tag name where the API wants the numeric id —
is restored as an explicit Gotcha because it destroys the wrong release
silently.

Elsewhere the `exclusive` flag was documented on the wrong side of the
read/write split, and label data from one instance was presented as though it
were universal, which invites an agent to assume a taxonomy that does not
exist on the target repo. rename_branch was missing from the branch surface.
Reference prose and fences are cleaned up in passing.

Note on call signatures: per docs/adr/0011-gitea-skill-deep-modules.md, the tool parameter signatures in references/branches.md and references/commits.md were re-verified live via ToolSearch against the deployed gitea-mcp server — last verified against v1.7.0, as reported by get_gitea_mcp_server_version — rather than copied verbatim from api-reference.md below. This resolves issue #6 comment #849's root-cause finding that a prior skill was authored from API docs that had drifted from the actual MCP tool schema. The research docs cited here informed gotchas, response shapes, and workflow context, not the parameter lists themselves.

gitea-mcp-repo

  • URL: https://gitea.com/gitea/gitea-mcp
  • Description: Official gitea-mcp repository; operation/*.go source files documenting the MCP tools, their parameters, and CLI flags. Extracted at v1.3.0; the parameter lists carried into this skill are re-verified live against the deployed server, last at v1.7.0. Informed the dispatch table and pagination / 404-may-mean-403 gotchas in SKILL.md, and the list/create/delete branch and list/get commit mechanics (including 409 conflict and default-branch fallback behavior) in references/branches.md and references/commits.md.

gitea-mcp-slim-go

  • URL: https://gitea.com/gitea/gitea-mcp/raw/branch/main/operation/repo/slim.go
  • Description: Slim response shape structs from gitea-mcp source, extracted at v1.3.0; defines exactly which fields the MCP server returns for branches (name, protected, commit_sha) and commits (sha, html_url, created, message, author), and informed get_commit's always-populated guarantee vs. list_commits' conditional fields.

context7-websites-gitea

  • URL: context7:/websites/gitea
  • Description: Official Gitea docs mirror on Context7 — informed the protected-branch gotcha in SKILL.md (protected branches can block server-side operations regardless of client-side checks; admins aren't exempt by default).
  • Research doc: plugins/gitea/docs/research/docs/gitea/sources.md
  • Contributing files: SKILL.md

context7-gitea-tea-cli

  • URL: context7:/git_gitea_com/gitea_tea
  • Description: Official tea CLI docs on Context7 — practitioner conventions for issues, PRs, and releases (semver tags, draft/prerelease flags). Consulted as part of the shared research pass but its content is scoped to releases/tags, out of scope for branches/commits — no content from it was used in this skill.
