What MergeHarbor does on Gitea and Forgejo

Pull request reviews: Findings are posted as a pull request review with inline comments on the changed lines, and a summary of the change.
A commit status: Each review reports a commit status, and the merge gate reports MergeHarbor / merge gate. Require either in your branch protection.
Reactions feed learning: Thumbs up and thumbs down on MergeHarbor's comments tell it what your team values, alongside fixes and dismissals.
Commands in comments: Comment @mergeharbor review, @mergeharbor remember or another command, or start the comment with mergeharbor review without the @.

Frequently asked questions

Does it work with Forgejo and Codeberg?

Yes. Choose Gitea / Forgejo in the console and enter your instance URL. Public repositories on gitea.com and codeberg.org can be reviewed for free under the open-source program once a billing admin selects them.

What does the access token need?

The write:repository, write:issue and read:user scopes, on a service account rather than a person's account.

Is Gitea support generally available?

On Gitea and Forgejo, inline review comments, the status check, auto-approve, description updates, commands and reactions as feedback are supported.

Our Gitea server is on a private network. Can MergeHarbor reach it?

Your server must be reachable from MergeHarbor, and your Gitea must be able to reach MergeHarbor's webhook URL. For a server that is not reachable from the internet, run MergeHarbor self-hosted inside your network.

How do we try it?

Sign up and connect a code host. Every new organization gets the Team plan free for 14 days with no card, including the Deep review tier and the merge gate. If no one subscribes, reviews pause when the trial ends and nothing is deleted.
