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 does Cline connect to MCP servers?
Cline reads MCP server configurations from its settings panel in VS Code. Add the server URL and Cline discovers all available tools on initialization.
Can Cline run MCP tools without approval?
By default, Cline asks for confirmation before executing tool calls. You can configure auto-approval rules for trusted servers in the settings.
Does Cline support multiple MCP servers at once?
Yes. Configure as many servers as needed. Cline can use tools from different servers within the same autonomous task execution.
