gitea-create-issue

A procedure for opening a new issue in Gitea, a self-hosted service for hosting code and tracking project tasks. It searches for duplicates before creating the issue and handles repository details explicitly.

In plain words
What is it for?
Finding the correct Gitea repository, checking for an existing issue, creating a title and Markdown description, assigning users, and confirming the new issue number.
Why use it?
It prevents duplicate issues and reduces the risk of filing a report in the wrong repository. Labels and milestones are added through separate steps because they require different identifiers.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

gitea-create-issue scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured yesterday.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 65 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

gitea-create-issue

Open one new issue after ruling out a duplicate. Tools: search_issues, create_issue.

Prerequisites

  • Resolve owner+repo: pass explicitly, else GITEA_DEFAULT_OWNER/GITEA_DEFAULT_REPO, else resolve_repo (gitea-resolve-repo). Never guess — wrong values create the issue in the wrong repo.

Flow

  1. DUPLICATE CHECK (always first): search_issues({ query: "<title keywords>", type: "issues" }). If a match exists, comment on it (gitea-comment-issue) instead of creating a duplicate. Do NOT skip this — creation does not de-duplicate.
  2. CREATE: create_issue({ title, body?, assignees? }).

create_issue

  • RULES: title required; body is Markdown. Use assignees (array); do NOT also set the deprecated single assignee.
  • Do NOT pass labels or milestone here: labels expect IDs (error-prone) and milestone needs an id. Create WITHOUT them, then attach labels by name via add_issue_labels (gitea-label-issue) and set the milestone via update_issue (gitea-update-issue).
  • CHECK FIRST: confirm no duplicate (step 1) and that owner/repo are correct before writing.
  • CHECK AFTER: the returned object's number is the new issue index.

Body templates — standardize what you write into body

Always structure body with the template matching the issue type. Ask the user which type if it is not obvious. Drop a section only when it is genuinely empty; never invent data. These are GitHub-OSS conventions adapted for the Markdown body that create_issue accepts.

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
