# Sync Label Taxonomy from Gitea
This command fetches the current label taxonomy from Gitea (organization + repository labels), validates that required labels exist, and creates any missing ones. Labels are fetched dynamically - no local files are created or modified.
This command fetches the current label taxonomy from Gitea (organization + repository labels), validates that required labels exist, and creates any missing ones.
## Why Label Sync Matters
## CRITICAL: Execution Steps
The label taxonomy is **dynamic** - new labels may be added to Gitea over time:
- Organization-level labels (shared across all repos)
- Repository-specific labels (unique to this project)
You MUST follow these steps in order. Do NOT skip any step.
**Dynamic approach:** Never hardcode labels. Always fetch from Gitea and adapt suggestions accordingly.
### Step 1: Detect Repository from Git Remote
## What This Command Does
Run this Bash command to get the git remote URL:
1. **Auto-Detect Repository** - Automatically detects repo from git remote (or uses explicit `repo` param)
2. **Check Owner Type** - Determines if owner is organization or user account
3. **Fetch Current Labels** - Uses `get_labels` MCP tool to fetch all labels (org + repo)
4. **Display Current Taxonomy** - Shows organization and repository label counts
5. **Identify Missing Required Labels** - Checks for required labels (Type/*, Priority/*, etc.)
6. **Create Missing Labels** - Automatically creates any missing required labels
7. **Report Status** - Summarizes what was found and created
```bash
git remote get-url origin
```
**Note:** This command executes autonomously without user prompts. It fetches labels, reports findings, and creates missing labels automatically.
Parse the output to extract `owner/repo`:
- SSH format `ssh://git@host:port/owner/repo.git` → extract `owner/repo`
- SSH short `git@host:owner/repo.git` → extract `owner/repo`
- HTTPS `https://host/owner/repo.git` → extract `owner/repo`
## MCP Tools Used
Store this as `REPO_NAME` for all subsequent MCP calls.
**Gitea Tools:**
- `get_labels` - Fetch all labels (organization + repository)
- `create_label` - Create missing required labels
- `validate_repo_org` - Verify repository belongs to organization
### Step 2: Validate Repository Organization
## Required Label Categories
Call MCP tool with the detected repo:
At minimum, these label categories must exist:
```
mcp__plugin_projman_gitea__validate_repo_org(repo=REPO_NAME)
```
This determines if the owner is an organization or user account.
### Step 3: Fetch Labels from Gitea
Call MCP tool with the detected repo:
```
mcp__plugin_projman_gitea__get_labels(repo=REPO_NAME)
```
This returns both organization labels (if org-owned) and repository labels.
### Step 4: Display Current Taxonomy
Show the user:
- Total organization labels count
- Total repository labels count
- Labels grouped by category (Type/*, Priority/*, etc.)
### Step 5: Check Required Labels
Verify these required label categories exist:
- **Type/***: Bug, Feature, Refactor, Documentation, Test, Chore
- **Priority/***: Low, Medium, High, Critical
- **Complexity/***: Simple, Medium, Complex
- **Efforts/***: XS, S, M, L, XL
- **Effort/***: XS, S, M, L, XL (note: may be "Effort" or "Efforts")
If any required labels are missing, the command will offer to create them.
### Step 6: Create Missing Labels (if any)
For each missing required label, call:
```
mcp__plugin_projman_gitea__create_label(repo=REPO_NAME, name="Type: Bug", color="d73a4a")
```
Use the label format that matches existing labels in the repo (slash `/` or colon-space `: `).
### Step 7: Report Results
Summarize what was found and created.
## DO NOT
- **DO NOT** call MCP tools without the `repo` parameter - they will fail
- **DO NOT** create any local files - this command only interacts with Gitea
- **DO NOT** ask the user questions - execute autonomously
- **DO NOT** create a "labels reference file" - labels are fetched dynamically from Gitea
## MCP Tools Used
All tools require the `repo` parameter in `owner/repo` format:
| Tool | Purpose |
|------|---------|
| `validate_repo_org(repo=...)` | Check if owner is organization or user |
| `get_labels(repo=...)` | Fetch all labels (org + repo) |
| `create_label(repo=..., name=..., color=...)` | Create missing labels |

## Label Taxonomy Structure
## Label Format Detection
Labels are organized by namespace:
Labels may use different naming conventions:
- Slash format: `Type/Bug`, `Priority/High`
- Colon-space format: `Type: Bug`, `Priority: High`
**Organization Labels (28):**
- `Agent/*` (2): Agent/Human, Agent/Claude
- `Complexity/*` (3): Simple, Medium, Complex
- `Efforts/*` (5): XS, S, M, L, XL
- `Priority/*` (4): Low, Medium, High, Critical
- `Risk/*` (3): Low, Medium, High
- `Source/*` (4): Development, Staging, Production, Customer
- `Type/*` (6): Bug, Feature, Refactor, Documentation, Test, Chore
When creating missing labels, match the format used by existing labels in the repository.
**Repository Labels (16):**
- `Component/*` (9): Backend, Frontend, API, Database, Auth, Deploy, Testing, Docs, Infra
- `Tech/*` (7): Python, JavaScript, Docker, PostgreSQL, Redis, Vue, FastAPI
## Troubleshooting
## Label Reference
**Error: Use 'owner/repo' format**
- You forgot to pass the `repo` parameter to the MCP tool
- Go back to Step 1 and detect the repo from git remote
The plugin includes a static reference file at `skills/label-taxonomy/labels-reference.md` that documents the expected label taxonomy and suggestion logic.
**Empty organization labels**
- If owner is a user account (not org), organization labels will be empty
- This is expected - user accounts only have repository-level labels
**Important:** This reference file is part of the plugin package and serves as documentation. The `/labels-sync` command fetches labels dynamically from Gitea - it does not modify the reference file.
**Dynamic Approach:** Labels are always fetched fresh from Gitea using `get_labels`. The reference file provides context for the `suggest_labels` logic but is not the source of truth.

## Organization Labels (28)
### Agent (2)
- Agent/Human - Work performed by human developers
- Agent/Claude - Work performed by Claude Code
### Type (6)
- Type/Bug - Bug fixes and error corrections
- Type/Feature - New features and enhancements
- Type/Refactor - Code restructuring and architectural changes
- Type/Documentation - Documentation updates
- Type/Test - Testing-related work
- Type/Chore - Maintenance and tooling tasks
...
## Repository Labels (16)
### Component (9)
- Component/Backend - Backend service code
- Component/Frontend - User interface code
- Component/API - API endpoints and contracts
...
## Suggestion Logic
When suggesting labels, consider:
**Type Detection:**
- Keywords "bug", "fix", "error" -> Type/Bug
- Keywords "feature", "add", "implement" -> Type/Feature
- Keywords "refactor", "extract", "restructure" -> Type/Refactor
...
```
**Git remote not found**
- Ensure you're running in a directory with a git repository
- Check that the `origin` remote is configured
## When to Run
Run `/labels-sync` when:
- Setting up the plugin for the first time
- You notice missing labels in suggestions
- New labels are added to Gitea (announced by team)
- Quarterly maintenance (check for changes)
- New labels are added to Gitea
- After major taxonomy updates
## Integration with Other Commands
The updated taxonomy is used by:
- `/sprint-plan` - Planner agent uses `suggest_labels` with current taxonomy
- All commands that create or update issues
## Example Usage
**Example 1: All labels present**
```

```
## Troubleshooting
**Error: Cannot fetch labels from Gitea**
- Check your Gitea configuration in `~/.config/claude/gitea.env`
- Verify your API token has `read:org` and `repo` permissions
- Ensure you're connected to the network
**Error: Use 'owner/repo' format**
- Ensure you're running from a directory with a git remote configured
- Or pass the `repo` parameter explicitly: `GITEA_REPO=owner/repo` in `.env`
**Organization labels empty for org-owned repo**
- Verify the organization has labels configured in Gitea
- Check if the owner is truly an organization (not a user account)
- User accounts don't have organization-level labels
**User-owned repo (no org labels)**
- This is expected behavior - user accounts can only have repository-level labels
- The plugin will work with repo labels only and create missing required labels
## Best Practices
1. **Sync at sprint start** - Ensure labels are current before planning
2. **Review changes** - Always review what changed before confirming
3. **Create missing required labels** - Don't skip this step
4. **Update planning** - After sync, consider if new labels affect current sprint
5. **Communicate changes** - Let team know when new labels are available
