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.

gitea-files

Read and write individual files and directory/repository trees in a Gitea repository via the Gitea MCP server.

What it does

This skill handles file-domain operations within the Gitea integration suite: reading a single file's contents, listing one directory level, walking a full repository tree (optionally recursive), creating or updating a file, and deleting a file. It owns the SHA-based optimistic-concurrency pattern that Gitea requires for file writes — the domain's sharpest gotcha — and defers branch creation, commit history, and pull request mechanics to gitea-branches and gitea-prs.

Usage

/gitea-files

Describe the file task: read a file or directory, walk a tree, create/update a file, or delete a file. Provide owner/repo/branch (or ask the user if not given) — this skill does not resolve them from a git remote itself.
