158f8e64-a935-4f0f-b7fd-d76657825c27	configuration	Gitea CLI: use tea not gh for API access	gitea tea cli configuration api	0.7	0.8	2026-02-13T21:09:58.004523+00:00	2026-02-13T21:09:58.004523+00:00

The gh CLI does not work with Gitea — it's hardcoded for GitHub API v3 at /api/v3/, but Gitea uses /api/v1/. Attempts to use 'gh api --hostname git.manticorum.com' fail with HTTP 404.

Solution: Use tea (Gitea's official CLI) installed at ~/.local/bin/tea Authenticated as: cal@homelab (https://git.manticorum.com) Token source: ~/.claude/secrets/gitea_token

Common commands:

• tea repos list
• tea pulls list
• tea issues list

Updated CLAUDE.md to always use tea for Gitea operations, never gh.

This fixes the pattern where Claude would try gh first (fail), then retry with curl (succeed).
