Configuration: Local Gitea MCP Server

Package

@boringstudio_org/gitea-mcp v1.8.0 via npx (stdio transport)

Note: The official docker.gitea.com/gitea-mcp-server Docker image is NOT available as an npm package. @boringstudio_org/gitea-mcp is the best npm alternative for local stdio use.

Required Environment Variables

• GITEA_API_URL — must include /api/v1 suffix, e.g. https://git.manticorum.com/api/v1
• GITEA_TOKEN — sourced from tea CLI config at ~/.config/tea/config.yml

~/.claude.json entry

"gitea-mcp": {
  "command": "npx",
  "args": ["@boringstudio_org/gitea-mcp"],
  "env": {
    "GITEA_API_URL": "https://git.manticorum.com/api/v1",
    "GITEA_TOKEN": "<token from ~/.config/tea/config.yml>"
  }
}

Notes

• Replaced the Docker MCP Gateway remote HTTP connection (LXC 303)
• Runs on demand via npx, no persistent process required
• This replaced the docker-mcp-gateway MCP server entry for Gitea
