history
Project history and usage
Gitea MCP Server is an integration server that exposes Gitea repository, issue, pull request, release, tag, branch, and file operations to Model Context Protocol clients. It connects self-hosted or gitea.com-style Git forges to chat-based developer tools.
Project history
The project is hosted under Gitea's own gitea.com organization, with early release tags beginning in March 2025. Its README presents it as an MCP integration for command execution and repository management through MCP-compatible chat interfaces.
Adoption history
Its adoption follows the growth of MCP as a standard way for AI applications to connect to external tools and data sources. The README documents usage with OpenCode, Claude Code, VS Code, Mistral Vibe, Cursor-style MCP configuration, Docker, and local binaries, placing it in the emerging ecosystem of forge-aware AI development tools.
How it is used
Practitioners configure a Gitea host and personal access token, then run the server over stdio or HTTP. MCP clients can ask it to list repositories, inspect issues, create files, open pull requests, manage releases, or retrieve repository content.
Why package nerds care
The package matters because it packages a forge integration as a standard MCP server rather than as a single-editor plugin. Homebrew and Nix packaging let developers install the server beside other command-line infrastructure and point multiple MCP clients at the same Gitea API surface.
