What the code does

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.

This code can reach further than it looks
We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

<GITEA_URL> (Base URL of your Gitea/Forgejo/Codeberg instance), <GITEA_TOKEN> (Personal access token for the configured instance).
The author’s registry entry marks them as required.
Optional settings from the registry entry, left out of the block above:
GITEA_TIMEOUT (HTTP request timeout in seconds), GITEA_MAX_RETRIES (Retry count for transient failures), GITEA_RETRY_BASE_DELAY (Retry backoff base delay in seconds).
