Defame1297 bbc73008a3 chore(gitea): regenerate the flat content mirror after the ADR-0020 retrofit
Generated output, not authored content: scripts/sync-plugin-content.sh --all.
Claude Code has no .apm/ awareness, so this compiled mirror must track .apm/ or
the check-plugin-content-sync pre-push hook reports drift.

Deferred to a single commit at the end of the wave on purpose. sync_dir runs
rm -rf before every copy, so running it while seven agents were editing the
same plugin would have raced them; agents were told not to sync for that reason.

name: gitea-files
description: >
Use when reading or writing files in a Gitea repository rather than on the local filesystem —
read, list, walk the tree, create, update, or delete — 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; `withLines: true` returns numbered lines.
## 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
| Condition | Flow | Reference |
|---|---|---|
| Read one file, list one directory level, or walk the repository tree | Read | `references/reading.md` |
| Create, update, or delete a file | Write | `references/writing.md` |
If the request only inspects repository contents, read `references/reading.md` — it carries the three read tools, their pagination behaviour, and why neither a directory listing nor a tree entry supplies the SHA a write needs.
If the request creates, updates or deletes a file, read `references/writing.md` — it carries 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.
