Tea CLI for Gitea

Overview

Tea is the official CLI for Gitea. Use it for quick operations, scripting, and CI/CD workflows. For complex automation or custom integrations, use the gitea:go-sdk skill instead.

Quick Setup

# Install
brew install tea  # or: go install code.gitea.io/tea@latest

# Authenticate
tea login add --name myserver --url https://gitea.example.com --token YOUR_TOKEN

See references/authentication.md for detailed auth options.
