`fgj` is a command-line tool for working with Forgejo and Gitea instances. It brings pull requests, issues, and other forge concepts to the terminal, similar to what `gh` does for GitHub. This fork adds agentic dev features — raw API access, PR review workflows, structured error output, and machine-readable I/O for AI coding agents.

> Forked from [codeberg.org/romaintb/fgj](https://codeberg.org/romaintb/fgj) and hosted at [forgejo.zerova.net/sid/fgj-sid](https://forgejo.zerova.net/sid/fgj-sid).

## Features

- Multi-instance support (works with any Forgejo or Gitea instance)
- Pull request management (create, list, view, merge, diff, comment, review)
- Issue tracking (create, list, view, comment, close, labels)
- Repository operations (view, list, create, edit, clone, fork)
- Label management (list, create, edit, delete)
- Milestone management (list, view, create, edit, delete)
- Wiki page management (list, view, create, edit, delete)
- Issue dependencies (`--add-dependency`, `--remove-dependency`)
- Forgejo Actions (workflow runs, watch/rerun/cancel, enable/disable, secrets, variables)
- Releases (create, upload, delete)
- Raw API access (`fgj api`) for arbitrary REST calls
- Shell completions (bash, zsh, fish, PowerShell) and man pages
- JSON output (`--json`) for all list/view commands
- Structured JSON error output (`--json-errors`) for machine consumption
- Automatic repository and hostname detection from git context
- Secure authentication with personal access tokens
- XDG Base Directory compliant config location
- AI coding agent friendly

## Installation

### macOS (Homebrew)

```bash
brew tap sid/fgj-sid https://forgejo.zerova.net/sid/homebrew-fgj-sid.git
brew install fgj
```

### Using Go Install

```bash
go install forgejo.zerova.net/sid/fgj-sid@latest
```

### From Source

```bash
git clone https://forgejo.zerova.net/sid/fgj-sid.git
cd fgj-sid
go build -o fgj .
```

## Quick Start

### 1. Authenticate

First, authenticate with your Forgejo or Gitea instance:

```bash
fgj auth login
```

You'll be prompted for:
- Instance hostname (default: codeberg.org)
- Personal access token

To create a personal access token:
1. Go to your instance (e.g., https://forgejo.zerova.net)
2. Navigate to Settings > Applications > Generate New Token
3. Give it appropriate permissions (repo, issue, etc.)
4. Copy the token and paste it when prompted

### 2. Check Authentication Status

```bash
fgj auth status
```

### Auth Helpers

```bash
# Print the stored token for the current host
fgj auth token

# Remove authentication for a host
fgj auth logout
```

## Usage

### Repository Detection

`fgj` automatically detects the repository from your git context, similar to `gh`:

```bash
# When inside a git repository, no -R flag needed!
cd /path/to/your/repo
fgj pr list              # Automatically uses current repo
fgj issue list           # Automatically uses current repo
fgj pr view 123          # Automatically uses current repo

# Or explicitly specify a repository with -R
fgj pr list -R owner/repo
```

The tool reads `.git/config` to find the origin remote and extract both the owner/repo information and the instance hostname. If you're not in a git repository, you'll need to use the `-R` flag.

### Pull Requests

```bash
# List pull requests (auto-detects repo and hostname from git)
fgj pr list

# Or specify explicitly
fgj pr list -R owner/repo

# Filter by state
fgj pr list --state closed

# View a specific pull request
fgj pr view 123

# Create a pull request
fgj pr create -t "PR Title" -b "PR Description" -H feature-branch -B main

# Merge a pull request

fgj api /repos/{owner}/{repo}/pulls

# POST with fields
fgj api /repos/{owner}/{repo}/issues -X POST -f title="Bug report" -f body="Description"

# Explicit method and hostname
fgj api /repos/myorg/myrepo/labels --hostname my-forgejo.example.com

# Read request body from file
fgj api /repos/{owner}/{repo}/issues -X POST --input issue.json

# Read from stdin
echo '{"title":"test"}' | fgj api /repos/{owner}/{repo}/issues -X POST --input -

# Include response headers
fgj api /repos/{owner}/{repo} -i

# Suppress output (useful for DELETE)
fgj api /repos/{owner}/{repo}/issues/123 -X DELETE --silent
```

## Shell Completions and Man Pages

```bash
# Generate shell completion scripts
fgj completion bash > /etc/bash_completion.d/fgj
fgj completion zsh > "${fpath[1]}/_fgj"
fgj completion fish > ~/.config/fish/completions/fgj.fish

# Generate man pages to a directory
fgj manpages --dir ~/.local/share/man/man1
```

## JSON Output

Most list and view commands support `--json` for machine-readable output:

```bash
fgj pr list --json
fgj issue view 456 --json
fgj release list --json
fgj actions run list --json
fgj actions workflow view ci.yml --json

# Get JSON output from PR comment/review
fgj pr comment 123 -b "LGTM" --json
fgj pr review 123 --approve -b "Ship it" --json
```

### Structured Error Output

For machine consumption (ideal for AI agents and scripts), use `--json-errors` to get structured JSON errors on stderr:

```bash
# Errors are written to stderr as JSON
fgj pr view 9999 --json-errors
# stderr: {"error":{"code":"not_found","message":"...","status":404}}

# Combine with --json for fully machine-readable I/O
fgj pr list --json --json-errors
```

## Configuration

Configuration is stored in `~/.config/fgj/config.yaml`:

```yaml
hosts:
  forgejo.zerova.net:
    hostname: forgejo.zerova.net
    token: your_token_here
    user: your_username
    git_protocol: ssh
  codeberg.org:
    hostname: codeberg.org
    token: another_token
    user: another_username
    git_protocol: https
```

### Environment Variables

- `FGJ_HOST`: Override the default instance (auto-detected from git remote if not set)
- `FGJ_TOKEN`: Provide authentication token

Hostname is resolved in this priority order:
1. Command-specific flags (e.g., `--hostname`)
2. `FGJ_HOST` environment variable
3. Auto-detected from git remote URL
4. Default to `codeberg.org`

### Command-line Flags

- `--hostname`: Specify instance for a command (overrides auto-detection and environment variables)
- `--config`: Use a custom config file

When working in a git repository, `fgj` automatically detects the instance from your origin remote URL, so you typically don't need to specify `--hostname` unless working with multiple instances.

## Use with AI Coding Agents

`fgj` is designed to work seamlessly with AI coding agents like Claude Code. Use `--json` and `--json-errors` for fully machine-readable I/O:

```bash
# Create PR from agent's changes
fgj pr create -R owner/repo -t "feat: add new feature" -b "$(cat <<EOF
## Summary
- Added new feature X
- Fixed bug Y

Generated with AI assistance
EOF
)" --json

# Check PR status during development
fgj pr list -R owner/repo --state open --json

# Review a PR diff, then approve
fgj pr diff 123
fgj pr review 123 --approve -b "LGTM" --json

# Post review feedback
fgj pr comment 123 -b "Consider using a map here for O(1) lookup" --json

# Request changes with detailed feedback
fgj pr review 123 --request-changes --body-file feedback.md --json

# Use raw API for anything not covered by commands
fgj api /repos/{owner}/{repo}/topics --json-errors
fgj api /repos/{owner}/{repo}/labels -X POST -f name=agent-reviewed -f color="#00ff00"

# Fully machine-readable error handling
fgj pr view 9999 --json --json-errors 2>errors.json
```

## Supported Instances

## Missing Features / Roadmap

`fgj` aims to be a drop-in replacement for `gh` when working with Forgejo and Gitea instances. While we've implemented the core features, some `gh` commands are not yet available:

**Not Yet Implemented:**
- `run delete` - Delete a workflow run
- `run download` - Download workflow run artifacts
- `pr checkout`, `pr close/reopen`
- `pr checks`, `pr ready/draft`
- `issue reopen`, `issue assign`
- `release edit`, `release download`, `release generate-notes`
- `repo delete`

We welcome contributions to implement any of these features!
