Opportunities — the stories that would move this product's scores, from its own judged verdictsOpportunitiestop 8 of 52 stories with headroom
What would move Gitea’s scores — derived from its own judged verdicts, biggest headroom first. Each line quotes what the judge found missing; shipping it (or evidencing it publicly) is the fix.
Agenticness — how well agents can access and operate the productDelegate tasks to a built-in AI assistant inside the product
nonemoves Built-in AIimpact 45
No evidence of a built-in AI assistant in Gitea; the product offers an MCP server for external agents to connect to, but that is not a native AI assistant feature delegable by an end user within the product itself.
Agenticness — how well agents can access and operate the productPlug MCP servers into this product so it can use their tools
nonemoves agent-readyimpact 45
The story asks whether Gitea itself can consume external MCP servers' tools (client-side), but the only MCP-related evidence shows Gitea publishing its own MCP server (gitea-mcp) for others to call into Gitea, not Gitea invoking outside MCP tools.
Security — security posture and hardening storiesAutomatically receive pull requests that update vulnerable dependencies
nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30
No evidence of a Dependabot-like automated dependency-vulnerability scanning/update feature that opens pull requests; Gitea's evidence covers package registry hosting, CI/CD via Actions, and code review, but nothing about automated dependency vulnerability detection or auto-generated PRs to bump vulnerable dependencies.
Ci cd — continuous integration and delivery — pipelines, runners, cachingRun CI/CD jobs on runners hosted by the platform without managing infrastructure
nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30
Gitea Actions (gitea-docs-2) provides CI/CD workflow support compatible with GitHub Actions syntax, but Gitea is self-hosted software and the evidence never mentions a Gitea-operated hosted runner fleet — users must deploy and manage their own runners as part of self-hosting Gitea.
Security — security posture and hardening storiesConsolidate static analysis, dependency, secret, and dynamic security scanning into one platform
nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30
Gitea's evidence covers repo hosting, CI/CD via Actions, code review, packages, and access control, but there is no mention of built-in SAST, dependency/SCA scanning, secret scanning, or DAST features, and community evidence explicitly notes Gitea 'deliberately stays focused on git hosting rather than bundling CI/chat like Gitlab' (gitea-comm-5), implying it does not bundle a security scanning suite like GitLab's.
Security — security posture and hardening storiesSecure my account with two-factor authentication
nonemoves PA Scoreimpact 30
The evidence pack mentions general security features (permissions, access control lists) but never specifically mentions two-factor authentication, TOTP, or U2F support, so there's no evidence this capability is documented.
Agenticness — how well agents can access and operate the productPoint an agent at llms.txt or agent-oriented docs
nonemoves agent-readyimpact 30
The probe explicitly shows llms.txt returns 404 at docs.gitea.com, and no other evidence indicates agent-oriented documentation exists elsewhere; the OpenAPI probe also failed, further indicating no machine-readable/agent-friendly docs endpoint.
Agenticness — how well agents can access and operate the productGet AI-generated insights and suggestions from my data inside the product
nonemoves Built-in AIimpact 30
No evidence of any AI-generated insights, summaries, or suggestions surfaced from Gitea's own data (e.g., code review AI, issue analysis, PR summarization).
