Defame1297 dd1981db80 fix(gitea-issues): list_issues does have type and milestones on v1.7.0
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stale research docs; it now records that the earlier check was superseded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.

# `search_issues`
Call signature verified live against the deployed `gitea-mcp` server via `ToolSearch` at authoring
time (see `references/sources.md`) — confirmed to match `api-reference.md`.
**Parameters:**
- `query` (string, required) — the only hard-required parameter
- `state` (string, enum `"open"` | `"closed"` | `"all"`, optional)
- `type` (string, enum `"issues"` | `"pulls"`, optional) — the same filter, with the same values,
that `list_issues` takes (see `references/issues.md`)
- `labels` (string, optional) — comma-separated label **names** — a plain string, not the array form
`list_issues` uses
- `owner` (string, optional) — restrict results to one owner
- `page` (number, optional, default `1`)
- `per_page` (number, optional, default `30`)
**Call:**
```
search_issues query: <text>
```
**Narrowing the search:**
```
search_issues query: <text> owner: <owner> state: "open" type: "pulls" labels: "bug,urgent"
```
This is a cross-repository search (unlike `list_issues`, which is scoped to one `owner`/`repo`) —
useful when the caller doesn't know which repo an issue lives in, or wants results across an
organization. Pass `owner` to narrow scope if the caller does know it.
Paginate the same way as `list_issues`: iterate `page` until the returned count is less than
`per_page`.
