+## MCP Tool Development
+
+When adding new MCP tools:
+
+1. **Add to MCP Server**: Implement the tool in the appropriate MCP server file (e.g., `src/mcp/local-git-ops-server.ts`)
+2. **Expose to Claude**: Add the tool name to `BASE_ALLOWED_TOOLS` array in `src/create-prompt/index.ts`
+3. **Tool Naming**: Follow the pattern `mcp__server_name__tool_name` (e.g., `mcp__local_git_ops__checkout_branch`)
+4. **Documentation**: Update the prompt's "What You CAN Do" section if the tool adds new capabilities
+
+## Feature Development Reminders
+
+When implementing new features that add action inputs, configuration options, or capabilities:
+
+1. Always update README.md to document new inputs in the inputs table
+2. Update example workflows to show how new inputs can be used
+3. Add appropriate defaults and descriptions to action.yml

-1. Fork the repository on GitHub and clone your fork:
-
-   ```bash
-   git clone https://github.com/your-username/claude-code-action.git
-   cd claude-code-action
-   ```
-
-2. Install dependencies:
-
-   ```bash
-   bun install
-   ```
-
-3. Set up your Anthropic API key:
-   ```bash
-   export ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="your-api-key-here"
-   ```
-
-## Development
-
-### Available Scripts
-
-- `bun test` - Run all tests

-
-   This script:
-
-   - Installs `act` if not present (requires Homebrew on macOS)
-   - Runs the GitHub Action workflow locally using Docker
-   - Requires your `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` to be set
-
-   On Apple Silicon Macs, the script automatically adds the `--container-architecture linux/amd64` flag to avoid compatibility issues.
-
-## Pull Request Process
-
-1. Create a new branch from `main`:
-
-   ```bash
-   git checkout -b feature/your-feature-name
-   ```
-
-2. Make your changes and commit them:
-
-   ```bash
-   git add .
-   git commit -m "feat: add new feature"
-   ```
-
-3. Run tests and formatting:
-
-   ```bash
-   bun test
-   bun run typecheck
-   bun run format:check
-   ```
-
-4. Push your branch and create a Pull Request:
-
-   ```bash
-   git push origin feature/your-feature-name
-   ```
-
-5. Ensure all CI checks pass
-
-6. Request review from maintainers
-
-## Action Development
-
-### Testing Your Changes
-
-When modifying the action:

-     ```yaml
-     uses: your-username/claude-code-action@your-branch
-     ```
-
-### Debugging
-
-- Use `console.log` for debugging in development
-- Check GitHub Actions logs for runtime issues
-- Use `act` with `-v` flag for verbose output:
-  ```bash
-  act push -v --secret ANTHROPIC_API_KEY="$ANTHROPIC_API_KEY"
-  ```

-# Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
-
-This FAQ addresses common questions and gotchas when using the Claude Code GitHub Action.
-
-## Triggering and Authentication
-
-### Why doesn't tagging @claude from my automated workflow work?
-
-The `github-actions` user (and other GitHub Apps/bots) cannot trigger subsequent GitHub Actions workflows. This is a GitHub security feature to prevent infinite loops. To make this work, you need to use a Personal Access Token (PAT) instead, which will act as a regular user. When posting a comment on an issue or PR from your workflow, use your PAT instead of the `GITHUB_TOKEN` generated in your workflow.
-
-### Why does Claude say I don't have permission to trigger it?
-
-Only users with **write permissions** to the repository can trigger Claude. This is a security feature to prevent unauthorized use. Make sure the user commenting has at least write access to the repository.
-
-### Why am I getting OIDC authentication errors?
-
-If you're using the default GitHub App authentication, you must add the `id-token: write` permission to your workflow:
-
-```yaml
-permissions:
-  contents: read
-  id-token: write # Required for OIDC authentication
-```
-
-The OIDC token is required in order for the Claude GitHub app to function. If you wish to not use the GitHub app, you can instead provide a `github_token` input to the action for Claude to operate with. See the [Claude Code permissions documentation][perms] for more.
-
-## Claude's Capabilities and Limitations
-
-### Why won't Claude update workflow files when I ask it to?
-
-The GitHub App for Claude doesn't have workflow write access for security reasons. This prevents Claude from modifying CI/CD configurations that could potentially create unintended consequences. This is something we may reconsider in the future.
-
-### Why won't Claude rebase my branch?
-
-By default, Claude only uses commit tools for non-destructive changes to the branch. Claude is configured to:
-
-- Never push to branches other than where it was invoked (either its own branch or the PR branch)
-- Never force push or perform destructive operations
-
-You can grant additional tools via the `allowed_tools` input if needed:
-
-```yaml
-allowed_tools: "Bash(git rebase:*)" # Use with caution
-```
-
-### Why won't Claude create a pull request?
-
-Claude doesn't create PRs by default. Instead, it pushes commits to a branch and provides a link to a pre-filled PR submission page. This approach ensures your repository's branch protection rules are still adhered to and gives you final control over PR creation.
-
-### Why can't Claude run my tests or see CI results?
-
-Claude cannot access GitHub Actions logs, test results, or other CI/CD outputs by default. It only has access to the repository files. If you need Claude to see test results, you can either:
-
-1. Instruct Claude to run tests before making commits
-2. Copy and paste CI results into a comment for Claude to analyze
-
-This limitation exists for security reasons but may be reconsidered in the future based on user feedback.
-
-### Why does Claude only update one comment instead of creating new ones?
-
-Claude is configured to update a single comment to avoid cluttering PR/issue discussions. All of Claude's responses, including progress updates and final results, will appear in the same comment with checkboxes showing task progress.
-
-## Branch and Commit Behavior
-
-### Why did Claude create a new branch when commenting on a closed PR?
-
-Claude's branch behavior depends on the context:
-
-- **Open PRs**: Pushes directly to the existing PR branch
-- **Closed/Merged PRs**: Creates a new branch (cannot push to closed PR branches)
-- **Issues**: Always creates a new branch with a timestamp
-
-### Why are my commits shallow/missing history?
-
-For performance, Claude uses shallow clones:
-
-- PRs: `--depth=20` (last 20 commits)
-- New branches: `--depth=1` (single commit)
-
-If you need full history, you can configure this in your workflow before calling Claude in the `actions/checkout` step.
-
-```
-- uses: actions/checkout@v4
-  depth: 0 # will fetch full repo history
-```
-
-## Configuration and Tools
-
-### What's the difference between `direct_prompt` and `custom_instructions`?
-
-These inputs serve different purposes in how Claude responds:
-
-- **`direct_prompt`**: Bypasses trigger detection entirely. When provided, Claude executes this exact instruction regardless of comments or mentions. Perfect for automated workflows where you want Claude to perform a specific task on every run (e.g., "Update the API documentation based on changes in this PR").
-
-- **`custom_instructions`**: Additional context added to Claude's system prompt while still respecting normal triggers. These instructions modify Claude's behavior but don't replace the triggering comment. Use this to give Claude standing instructions like "You have been granted additional tools for ...".
-
-Example:
-
-```yaml
-# Using direct_prompt - runs automatically without @claude mention
-direct_prompt: "Review this PR for security vulnerabilities"
-
-# Using custom_instructions - still requires @claude trigger
-custom_instructions: "Focus on performance implications and suggest optimizations"
-```
-
-### Why doesn't Claude execute my bash commands?
-
-The Bash tool is **disabled by default** for security. To enable individual bash commands:
-
-```yaml
-allowed_tools: "Bash(npm:*),Bash(git:*)" # Allows only npm and git commands
-```
-
-### Can Claude work across multiple repositories?
-
-No, Claude's GitHub app token is sandboxed to the current repository only. It cannot push to any other repositories. It can, however, read public repositories, but to get access to this, you must configure it with tools to do so.
-
-## MCP Servers and Extended Functionality
-
-### What MCP servers are available by default?
-
-Claude Code Action automatically configures two MCP servers:
-
-1. **GitHub MCP server**: For GitHub API operations
-2. **File operations server**: For advanced file manipulation
-
-However, tools from these servers still need to be explicitly allowed via `allowed_tools`.
-
-## Troubleshooting
-
-### How can I debug what Claude is doing?
-
-Check the GitHub Action log for Claude's run for the full execution trace.
-
-### Why can't I trigger Claude with `@claude-mention` or `claude!`?
-
-The trigger uses word boundaries, so `@claude` must be a complete word. Variations like `@claude-bot`, `@claude!`, or `claude@mention` won't work unless you customize the `trigger_phrase`.
-
-## Best Practices
-
-1. **Always specify permissions explicitly** in your workflow file
-2. **Use GitHub Secrets** for API keys - never hardcode them
-3. **Be specific with `allowed_tools`** - only enable what's necessary
-4. **Test in a separate branch** before using on important PRs
-5. **Monitor Claude's token usage** to avoid hitting API limits
-6. **Review Claude's changes** carefully before merging
-
-## Getting Help

-1. Check the [GitHub Issues](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code-action/issues)
-2. Review the [example workflows](https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code-action#examples)

+# Migration Guide: Pure Actions & Gitea Compatibility
+
+This document outlines the changes made to migrate from GitHub App authentication to pure GitHub Actions and add Gitea compatibility.
+
+## What Changed
+
+### 1. Removed GitHub App Dependencies
+
+- **Before**: Used OIDC token exchange with Anthropic's GitHub App service
+- **After**: Uses standard `GITHUB_TOKEN` from workflow environment
+- **Benefit**: No external dependencies, works with any Git provider
+
+### 2. Self-Contained Implementation
+
+- **Before**: Depended on external `anthropics/claude-code-base-action`
+- **After**: Includes built-in Claude execution engine
+- **Benefit**: Complete control over functionality, no external action dependencies
+
+### 3. Gitea Compatibility
+
+- **Before**: GitHub-specific triggers and authentication
+- **After**: Compatible with Gitea Actions (with some limitations)
+- **Benefit**: Works with self-hosted Gitea instances
+
+## Required Changes for Existing Users
+
+### Workflow Permissions
+
+Update your workflow permissions:
+
+```yaml
+# Before (GitHub App)
+permissions:
+  contents: read
+  pull-requests: read
+  issues: read
+  id-token: write
+
+# After (Pure Actions)
+permissions:
+  contents: write
+  pull-requests: write
+  issues: write
+```
+
+### Required Token Input
+
+Now required to explicitly provide a GitHub token:
+
+```yaml
+# Before (optional)
+- uses: anthropics/claude-code-action@beta
+  with:
+    anthropic_api_key: ${{ secrets.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY }}
+
+# After (required)
+- uses: anthropics/claude-code-action@beta
+  with:
+    gitea_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
+    anthropic_api_key: ${{ secrets.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY }}
+```
+
+## Gitea Setup
+
+### 1. Basic Gitea Workflow
+
+Use the example in `examples/gitea-claude.yml`:
+
+```yaml
+name: Claude Assistant for Gitea
+
+on:
+  issue_comment:
+    types: [created]
+  issues:
+    types: [opened, assigned]
+
+jobs:
+  claude-assistant:
+    if: |
+      (github.event_name == 'issue_comment' && contains(github.event.comment.body, '@claude')) ||
+      (github.event_name == 'issues' && contains(github.event.issue.body, '@claude'))
+    runs-on: ubuntu-latest
+    permissions:
+      contents: write
+      pull-requests: write
+      issues: write
+    steps:
+      - name: Checkout repository
+        uses: actions/checkout@v4
+        with:
+          fetch-depth: 0
+
+      - name: Run Claude Assistant
+        uses: ./ # Adjust path as needed for your Gitea setup
+        with:
+          gitea_token: ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }}
+          anthropic_api_key: ${{ secrets.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY }}
+```
+
+### 2. Gitea Limitations
+
+Be aware of these Gitea Actions limitations:
+
+- **`issue_comment` on PRs**: May not trigger reliably in some Gitea versions
+- **`pull_request_review_comment`**: Limited support compared to GitHub
+- **GraphQL API**: Not supported - action automatically falls back to REST API
+- **Cross-repository access**: Token permissions may be more restrictive
+- **Workflow triggers**: Some advanced trigger conditions may not work
+- **Permission checking**: Simplified for Gitea compatibility
+
+### 3. Gitea Workarounds
+
+#### For PR Comments
+
+Use `issue_comment` instead of `pull_request_review_comment`:
+
+```yaml
+on:
+  issue_comment:
+    types: [created] # This covers both issue and PR comments
+```
+
+#### For Code Review Comments
+
+Gitea has limited support for code review comment webhooks. Consider using:
+
+- Regular issue comments on PRs
+- Manual trigger via issue assignment
+- Custom webhooks (advanced setup)
+
+## Benefits of Migration
+
+### 1. Simplified Authentication
+
+- No OIDC token setup required
+- Uses standard workflow tokens
+- Works with custom GitHub tokens
+
+### 2. Provider Independence
+
+- No dependency on Anthropic's GitHub App service
+- Works with any Git provider supporting Actions
+- Self-contained functionality
+
+### 3. Enhanced Control
+
+- Direct control over Claude execution
+- Customizable tool management
+- Easier debugging and modifications
+
+### 4. Gitea Support
+
+- Compatible with self-hosted Gitea
+- Automatic fallback to REST API (no GraphQL dependency)
+- Simplified permission checking for Gitea environments
+- Reduced external dependencies
+- Standard Actions workflow patterns
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### Common Issues
+
+#### 1. Token Permissions
+
+**Error**: "GitHub token authentication failed"
+**Solution**: Ensure workflow has required permissions:
+
+```yaml
+permissions:
+  contents: write
+  pull-requests: write
+  issues: write
+```
+
+#### 2. Gitea Trigger Issues
+
+**Error**: Workflow not triggering on PR comments
+**Solution**: Use `issue_comment` instead of `pull_request_review_comment`
+
+#### 3. Missing Dependencies
+
+**Error**: "Module not found" or TypeScript errors
+**Solution**: Run `npm install` or `bun install` to update dependencies
+
+### Gitea-Specific Issues
+
+#### 1. Authentication Errors
+
+**Error**: "Failed to check permissions: HttpError: Bad credentials"
+**Solution**: This is normal in Gitea environments. The action automatically detects Gitea and bypasses GitHub-specific permission checks.
+
+#### 1a. User Profile API Errors
+
+**Error**: "Prepare step failed with error: Visit Project" or "GET /users/{username} - 404"
+**Solution**: This occurs when Gitea's user profile API differs from GitHub's. The action automatically detects Gitea and skips user type validation.
+
+#### 2. Limited Event Support
+
+Some GitHub Events may not be fully supported in Gitea. Use basic triggers:
+
+- `issue_comment` for comments
+- `issues` for issue events
+- `push` for code changes
+
+#### 3. Token Scope Limitations
+
+Gitea tokens may have different scope limitations. Ensure your Gitea instance allows:
+
+- Repository write access
+- Issue/PR comment creation
+- Branch creation and updates
+
+#### 4. GraphQL Not Supported
+
+**Error**: GraphQL queries failing
+**Solution**: The action automatically detects Gitea and uses REST API instead of GraphQL. No manual configuration needed.
+
+## Migration Checklist
+
+- [ ] Update workflow permissions to include `write` access
+- [ ] Add `github_token` input to action configuration
+- [ ] Remove `id-token: write` permission if not used elsewhere
+- [ ] Test with GitHub Actions
+- [ ] Test with Gitea Actions (if applicable)
+- [ ] Update any custom triggers for Gitea compatibility
+- [ ] Verify token permissions in target environment

+## Claude Max Authentication
+
+This action supports authentication using Claude Max OAuth credentials. This allows users with Claude Max subscriptions to use their existing authentication.
+
+### Setup
+
+1. **Get OAuth Credentials**: Use Claude Code to generate OAuth credentials:
+
+   ```
+   /auth-setup
+   ```
+
+2. **Add Credentials to Repository**: Add the generated JSON credentials as a repository secret named `CLAUDE_CREDENTIALS`.
+
+It should look like this:
+
+```json
+{
+  "claudeAiOauth": {
+    "accessToken": "sk-ant-xxx",
+    "refreshToken": "sk-ant-xxx",
+    "expiresAt": 1748707000000,
+    "scopes": ["user:inference", "user:profile"]
+  }
+}
+```
+
+3. **Configure Workflow**: Set up your workflow to use OAuth authentication:
+
+```yaml
+- uses: markwylde/claude-code-gitea-action@v1.0.5
+  with:
+    anthropic_api_key: "use-oauth"
+    claude_credentials: ${{ secrets.CLAUDE_CREDENTIALS }}
+    gitea_token: ${{ secrets.GITEA_TOKEN }}
+```
+
+When `anthropic_api_key` is set to `'use-oauth'`, the action will use the OAuth credentials provided in `claude_credentials` instead of a direct API key.
+
+## Gitea Configuration
+
+This action has been enhanced to work with Gitea installations. The main differences from GitHub are:
+
+1. **Local Git Operations**: Instead of using API-based file operations (which have limited support in Gitea), this action uses local git commands to create branches, commit files, and push changes.
+
+2. **API URL Configuration**: You must specify your Gitea server URL using the `gitea_api_url` input.
+
+### Gitea Setup Notes
+
+- Use a Gitea personal access token "GITEA_TOKEN"
+- The token needs repository read/write permissions
+- Claude will use local git operations for file changes and branch creation
+- Only PR creation and comment updates use the Gitea API
+

 ### Access Control
 
 - **Repository Access**: The action can only be triggered by users with write access to the repository
-- **No Bot Triggers**: GitHub Apps and bots cannot trigger this action
-- **Token Permissions**: The GitHub app receives only a short-lived token scoped specifically to the repository it's operating in
+- **No Bot Triggers**: Bots cannot trigger this action
+- **Token Permissions**: The Gitea token is scoped specifically to the repository it's operating in
 - **No Cross-Repository Access**: Each action invocation is limited to the repository where it was triggered
 - **Limited Scope**: The token cannot access other repositories or perform actions beyond the configured permissions

 - **Contents**: Read and write to modify repository files
-
-### Commit Signing
-
-All commits made by Claude through this action are automatically signed with commit signatures. This ensures the authenticity and integrity of commits, providing a verifiable trail of changes made by the action.
-
-### ⚠️ ANTHROPIC_API_KEY Protection
-
-**CRITICAL: Never hardcode your Anthropic API key in workflow files!**
-
-Your ANTHROPIC_API_KEY must always be stored in GitHub secrets to prevent unauthorized access:
-
-```yaml
-# CORRECT ✅
-anthropic_api_key: ${{ secrets.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY }}
-
-# NEVER DO THIS ❌
-anthropic_api_key: "sk-ant-api03-..." # Exposed and vulnerable!
-```
-
-### Setting Up GitHub Secrets
-
-1. Go to your repository's Settings
-2. Click on "Secrets and variables" → "Actions"
-3. Click "New repository secret"
-4. Name: `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`
-5. Value: Your Anthropic API key (starting with `sk-ant-`)
-6. Click "Add secret"
-
-### Best Practices for ANTHROPIC_API_KEY
-
-1. ✅ Always use `${{ secrets.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY }}` in workflows
-2. ✅ Never commit API keys to version control
-3. ✅ Regularly rotate your API keys
-4. ✅ Use environment secrets for organization-wide access
-5. ❌ Never share API keys in pull requests or issues
-6. ❌ Avoid logging workflow variables that might contain keys
-
-## Security Best Practices
-
-**⚠️ IMPORTANT: Never commit API keys directly to your repository! Always use GitHub Actions secrets.**
-
-To securely use your Anthropic API key:
-
-1. Add your API key as a repository secret:
-
-   - Go to your repository's Settings
-   - Navigate to "Secrets and variables" → "Actions"
-   - Click "New repository secret"
-   - Name it `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY`
-   - Paste your API key as the value
-
-2. Reference the secret in your workflow:
-   ```yaml
-   anthropic_api_key: ${{ secrets.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY }}
-   ```
-
-**Never do this:**
-
-```yaml
-# ❌ WRONG - Exposes your API key
-anthropic_api_key: "sk-ant-..."
-```
-
-**Always do this:**
-
-```yaml
-# ✅ CORRECT - Uses GitHub secrets
-anthropic_api_key: ${{ secrets.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY }}
-```
-
-This applies to all sensitive values including API keys, access tokens, and credentials.
-We also recommend that you always use short-lived tokens when possible
