SKILL.md's headline Gotcha said `list_issues` "has no `type` filter", and references/issues.md stated in bold that neither `type` nor `milestones` exists, "despite both appearing in api-reference.md". Both parameters are present on the deployed gitea-mcp v1.7.0 and both work: `type: "issues"` returns only issues, `type: "pulls"` only PRs, and `milestones` filters by name. Unfiltered, the same window returns them interleaved, so the mixing the Gotcha describes is real — only the stated remedy was wrong. This mattered most in gitea-workflow's no-args check-in, which lists open issues through this skill and so reported PRs under "Open Issues" while the skill forbade the one-parameter fix. The list flow now passes `type: "issues"`. references/sources.md recorded the absence as a live-verification win over stale research docs; it now records that the earlier check was superseded by v1.7.0, since drift runs in both directions. gitea-prs cited the same parameter as its canonical drift example and no longer does — no replacement example was substituted, because the obvious candidate was not verified in this pass. Also defaults label writes to `add_labels`: `replace_labels` clears every label not in the array, and per-label exclusivity makes blanket replacement destructive for a non-exclusive scope. Verified live against gitea-mcp v1.7.0, read-only calls. Refs #99
gitea-issues
Read and write Gitea issues — list, get, create, comment, close, and search — via the Gitea MCP server.
What it does
This skill handles the issue lifecycle (list_issues, issue_read, issue_write, search_issues):
listing repo issues, reading a single issue's details/comments/labels, creating an issue, updating
its state, adding/editing comments, applying labels, and searching issues/PRs across repositories.
The create flow closes out four enrichments deferred from issue #6 comment #848: label inference
and milestone assignment (both by composing gitea-labels-milestones), an assignee workaround for
the blocked get_me scope, and the "Depends on #N" dependency-linking convention. It supersedes the
issue/issue <N>/issue close <N>/issue comment <N> dispatch in the old flat
plugins/bin/skills/gitea/SKILL.md, removed per
docs/adr/0011-gitea-skill-deep-modules.md.
Before you start
Requires a Gitea MCP server configured with a token holding write:issue + write:repository.
Requires a git remote named origin pointing at the Gitea instance, unless an orchestrating caller
(e.g. gitea-workflow) already resolved owner/repo for you.
How it composes
This skill composes gitea-labels-milestones for all label inference, label-name-to-ID
resolution, and milestone lookup, rather than duplicating that taxonomy or its resolution logic —
see references/enrichments.md for the call protocol. Managing the label and milestone definitions
themselves (create/edit/delete a label, create/close a milestone) is out of scope here and goes to
gitea-labels-milestones directly.
One boundary the description does not spend characters on, because it was never going to win an
issue request: local git branch or commit work belongs to gitea-branches (Gitea-side) or
git-branches (working copy).
Usage
/gitea-issues
Describe your task: list issues, create one, get/comment/close/label a specific issue number, or
search across repos. See SKILL.md's dispatch table for the full set of recognized invocations.
