## What is Gitea?
|
|
|
|
Gitea is a community-managed lightweight code hosting solution written in Go. It is published under the MIT license. Gitea provides Git hosting including a repository viewer, issue tracking, pull requests, and more.
|
|
|
|
## What is MCP?
|
|
|
|
Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a protocol that allows for the integration of various tools and systems through a chat interface. It enables seamless command execution and management of repositories, users, and other resources.
|
|
|
|
## 🚧 Installation
|
|
|
|
### Usage with VS Code
|
|
|
|
For quick installation, use one of the one-click install buttons at the top of this README.
|
|
|
|
For manual installation, add the following JSON block to your User Settings (JSON) file in VS Code. You can do this by pressing `Ctrl + Shift + P` and typing `Preferences: Open User Settings (JSON)`.
|
|
|
|
Optionally, you can add it to a file called `.vscode/mcp.json` in your workspace. This will allow you to share the configuration with others.
|
|
|
|
> Note that the `mcp` key is not needed in the `.vscode/mcp.json` file.
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"mcp": {
|
|
"inputs": [
|
|
{
|
|
"type": "promptString",
|
|
"id": "gitea_token",
|
|
"description": "Gitea Personal Access Token",
|
|
"password": true
|
|
}
|
|
],
|
|
"servers": {
|
|
"gitea-mcp": {
|
|
"command": "docker",
|
|
"args": [
|
|
"run",
|
|
"-i",
|
|
"--rm",
|
|
"-e",
|
|
"GITEA_ACCESS_TOKEN",
|
|
"docker.gitea.com/gitea-mcp-server"
|
|
],
|
|
"env": {
|
|
"GITEA_ACCESS_TOKEN": "${input:gitea_token}"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 📥 Download the official binary release
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
### 🔧 Build from Source
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
git clone https://gitea.com/gitea/gitea-mcp.git
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Before building, make sure you have the following installed:
|
|
|
|

|
|
- Golang (Go 1.24 or later recommended)
|
|
|
|
Then run:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
make install
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### 📁 Add to PATH
|
|
|
|
After installing, copy the binary gitea-mcp to a directory included in your system's PATH. For example:
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
cp gitea-mcp /usr/local/bin/
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## 🚀 Usage
|
|
|
|
This example is for Cursor, you can also use plugins in VSCode.
|
|
To configure the MCP server for Gitea, add the following to your MCP configuration file:
|
|
|
|
- **stdio mode**
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"mcpServers": {
|
|
"gitea": {
|
|
"command": "gitea-mcp",
|
|
"args": [
|
|
"-t",
|
|
"stdio",
|
|
"--host",
|
|
"https://gitea.com"
|
|
// "--token", "<your personal access token>"
|
|
],
|
|
"env": {
|
|
// "GITEA_HOST": "https://gitea.com",
|
|
// "GITEA_INSECURE": "true",
|
|
"GITEA_ACCESS_TOKEN": "<your personal access token>"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
- **network mode** (provides both HTTP and SSE endpoints)
|
|
|
|
Start the server in network mode:
|
|
```bash
|
|
gitea-mcp -t network --host https://gitea.com --token <your-token> --port 8080
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Then configure your MCP client with either endpoint:
|
|
|
|
**HTTP endpoint:**
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"mcpServers": {
|
|
"gitea": {
|
|
"url": "http://localhost:8080/mcp"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**SSE endpoint:**
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"mcpServers": {
|
|
"gitea": {
|
|
"url": "http://localhost:8081/sse"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
**Default log path**: `$HOME/.gitea-mcp/gitea-mcp.log`
|
|
|
|
> [!NOTE]
|
|
> You can provide your Gitea host and access token either as command-line arguments or environment variables.
|
|
> Command-line arguments have the highest priority
|
|
|
|
Once everything is set up, try typing the following in your MCP-compatible chatbox:
|
|
|
|
```text
|
|
list all my repositories
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
