Agent Metadata
Known Gotchas
- ⚠ Documentation primarily in Chinese — English developers should use English Gitee docs or translate
- ⚠ China data residency — all code and data stored in China; consider GDPR/data sovereignty
- ⚠ Official MCP from OSChina — maintained and updated for Gitee API compatibility
- ⚠ Gitee API is similar to GitHub API v3 but has differences — don't assume GitHub API patterns apply
- ⚠ Some Gitee features (Gitee Pages, Gitee CI) require separate API calls not covered by all MCPs
- ⚠ Gitee Enterprise has different API endpoints — verify which tier your org uses
