description

PageRank-powered task management using Gitea, tea CLI, and gitea-robot. Replaces beads/br and mcp_agent_mail with Gitea-native tooling. Use when agents need to pick work, prioritize issues, manage dependencies, coordinate multi-agent work, or run agile workflows against git.terraphim.cloud. Triggers: 'what should I work on', 'pick next task', 'triage issues', 'show ready tasks', 'prioritize backlog', 'claim issue', 'close issue', 'add dependency', 'show dependency graph', 'coordinate work', 'start session', 'run workflow'. Keywords: gitea, pagerank, triage, ready, robot, tea, issue, priority, dependency, backlog, sprint.

Gitea PageRank Workflow

Gitea is the single source of truth for task management, prioritization, and multi-agent coordination. Use gitea-robot for PageRank-based prioritization and tea for issue/PR lifecycle.

Environment Setup

export GITEA_URL="https://git.terraphim.cloud"
export GITEA_TOKEN=$(op read "op://TerraphimPlatform/gitea-test-token/credential")

Verify: curl -s -H "Authorization: token $GITEA_TOKEN" "$GITEA_URL/api/v1/user" | jq .login

Core Commands

Discover Work (PageRank-ranked)

# Top priority issues ranked by dependency impact
gitea-robot triage --owner OWNER --repo REPO --format json

# Unblocked issues ready to start (no blocking dependencies)
gitea-robot ready --owner OWNER --repo REPO

# Full dependency graph
gitea-robot graph --owner OWNER --repo REPO

PageRank scores: higher = blocks more downstream work. Fix high-PageRank issues first.

Issue Lifecycle (tea CLI)

# List open issues
tea issues list --state open

# Create issue with labels
tea issues create --title "..." --description "..." --labels "priority/P1-high,type/task"

# Claim issue (assign + label)
tea issues edit IDX --add-labels "status/in-progress" --add-assignees "AGENT_NAME"

# Add comment (progress, coordination)
tea comment IDX "message"

# Close issue
tea issues close IDX

Dependencies

# Add: issue X is blocked by issue Y (Y blocks X)
gitea-robot add-dep --owner OWNER --repo REPO --issue X --blocks Y

PR Workflow

tea pulls create --title "Fix #IDX: title" --description "..." --base main --head branch
tea pulls merge --style squash

Agent Workflow

Single-Agent Flow

1. Pick work: gitea-robot ready --owner O --repo R -- pick highest PageRank unblocked issue
2. Claim: tea issues edit IDX --add-labels "status/in-progress" --add-assignees "AGENT"
3. Branch: git checkout -b task/IDX-short-title
4. Implement: TDD in worktree, commit with Refs #IDX in messages
5. PR: tea pulls create --title "Fix #IDX: title" --base main --head task/IDX-short-title
6. Close: tea issues close IDX after merge, add completion comment

Multi-Agent Coordination

For multi-agent conventions including file reservation via labels, coordination via comments, and cross-repo patterns, see references/agent-coordination.md.

Label Convention

Repos need standard labels for the workflow. Run scripts/gitea-setup-labels.sh to create them. See references/label-convention.md for the full set.

CLAUDE.md Integration

To replace the MCP Agent Mail + Beads snippet in a project's CLAUDE.md, use the snippet in references/claude-md-snippet.md.

Migration from Beads/Agent Mail

For mapping from br/bd commands and Agent Mail to Gitea equivalents, see references/migration.md.
