Frequently asked questions
How can I check which Forgejo version my instance is running?
You can use the get_forgejo_version tool. It will return the specific version string of your Forgejo instance, which is useful for debugging and feature compatibility checks.
Can I trigger a CI/CD build manually through the AI?
Yes! Use the dispatch_workflow tool by providing the repository owner, name, and the workflow file name. This triggers actions configured with the 'workflow_dispatch' event.
What is required to generate a new API token?
To use the create_token tool, you must have your Forgejo username and password configured in the credentials. This allows the agent to authenticate via BasicAuth and request a new token with your specified scopes.
How do I add an MCP server to Claude Code?
Run claude mcp add <name> --transport http "<url>" in your terminal. Claude Code registers the server and discovers all tools immediately.
Can Claude Code run MCP tools in headless mode?
Yes. Claude Code supports non-interactive execution, making it ideal for scripts, cron jobs, and CI/CD pipelines that need MCP tool access.
How do I list all connected MCP servers?
Run claude mcp in your terminal to see all registered servers and their status, or type /mcp inside an active Claude Code session.
