+# t_a292e96f — Gitea PR metadata wrapper fix
+
+## Objective
+
+Repair Mosaic git wrappers so Gitea PR metadata and merge preflight work for U-Connect PRs on `git.uscllc.com` without selecting the unrelated `git.mosaicstack.dev` tea login.
+
+## Findings
+
+- Reproduced the failure from `/src/uconnect-worktrees/t_39ce717c-authentik-smoke-gate` with the current `pr-metadata.sh`:
+  - PR #1905 returned JSON with `number=null`, `baseRefName=""`, `headRefName=""`.
+  - PR #1908 returned JSON with `number=null`, `baseRefName=""`, `headRefName=""`.
+- Root cause: the wrapper treated HTTP/API error payloads as PR payloads and normalized missing fields to empty strings.
+- The credential loader can return a non-working `git.uscllc.com` API token in this environment, while host-specific `~/.git-credentials` basic auth succeeds. The wrapper now falls back by host before normalization.
+- `tea login list` has only `git.mosaicstack.dev` configured here; `pr-merge.sh` previously forced `--login mosaicstack`, which is invalid for `git.uscllc.com` and caused `Login name mosaicstack does not exist`.
+
+## Changes
+
+- `packages/mosaic/framework/tools/git/detect-platform.sh`
+  - Added `get_gitea_basic_auth <host>` to retrieve host-specific HTTPS credentials from `~/.git-credentials` without printing secrets.
+- `packages/mosaic/framework/tools/git/pr-metadata.sh`
+  - Uses strict bash mode.
+  - Checks Gitea HTTP status and fails nonzero on API errors/non-JSON instead of emitting empty branch fields.
+  - Falls back from token auth to host-specific basic auth.
+  - Normalizes standard `head.ref`/`base.ref` and fallback branch fields.
+  - Requires non-empty `headRefName` and `baseRefName`.
+  - Preserves GitHub `gh pr view` behavior.
+- `packages/mosaic/framework/tools/git/pr-merge.sh`
+  - Reads metadata once for base-branch policy preflight.
+  - Selects a `tea` login only when its configured URL matches the repo host.
+  - Falls back to authenticated Gitea merge API when no matching `tea` login exists, avoiding the wrong `mosaicstack` login for USC repos.
+  - Keeps squash-only and main-only merge policy.
+- `packages/mosaic/framework/tools/git/test-pr-metadata-gitea.sh`
+  - Added fixture-based regression harness for standard Gitea fields, fallback branch fields, `refs/pull/<n>/head` plus `head.label` normalization, and API error payloads.
+
+## Documentation / changelog note
+
+This repository currently has no root `CHANGELOG.md`; the scratchpad and `docs/TASKS.md` carry the task-level change record for this wrapper fix.
+
+## Verification log
+
+- Red regression check: copied the new `test-pr-metadata-gitea.sh` harness next to `origin/main` wrapper scripts and ran it with `MOSAIC_TEST_WORK_DIR=$PWD/.mosaic-test-work/pr-metadata-gitea-red`; it failed as expected with `headRefName=''` and `baseRefName=''` on the fixture API-error path.
+- `bash -n packages/mosaic/framework/tools/git/{detect-platform.sh,pr-metadata.sh,pr-merge.sh,test-pr-metadata-gitea.sh}`: passed.
+- `shellcheck -x -P . -e SC1090 packages/mosaic/framework/tools/git/{detect-platform.sh,pr-metadata.sh,pr-merge.sh,test-pr-metadata-gitea.sh}`: passed.
+- `MOSAIC_TEST_WORK_DIR=$PWD/.mosaic-test-work/pr-metadata-gitea packages/mosaic/framework/tools/git/test-pr-metadata-gitea.sh`: passed; verifies standard Gitea fields, fallback branch fields, `refs/pull/<n>/head` label normalization, and nonzero API-error handling.
+- Installed wrapper parity: `/home/hermes/.config/mosaic/tools/git/{detect-platform.sh,pr-metadata.sh,pr-merge.sh}` byte-match the PR source copies after validation, so active U-Connect wrapper invocations use the same fix while source PR review runs.
+- Live sanitized U-Connect metadata from `/src/uconnect` with `MOSAIC_CREDENTIALS_FILE=/src/jarvis-brain/credentials.json`:
+  - PR #1905: `number=1905`, `baseRefName=main`, `headRefName=edith/t_39ce717c-authentik-smoke-gate`, `state=open`, `host=git.uscllc.com`.
+  - PR #1908: `number=1908`, `baseRefName=main`, `headRefName=fix/t_23fa9e1d-portal-health-backend`, `state=closed`, `host=git.uscllc.com`.
+- Merge preflight dry runs from installed wrappers:
+  - PR #1905: `Dry run: would merge PR #1905 on git.uscllc.com with authenticated Gitea API fallback (base=main, method=squash).`
+  - PR #1908: `Dry run: would merge PR #1908 on git.uscllc.com with authenticated Gitea API fallback (base=main, method=squash).`

-# t_a292e96f — Gitea PR metadata and merge wrapper fix
-
-## Objective
-
-Fix Mosaic git wrappers so Gitea repositories on `git.uscllc.com` resolve PR metadata and merge preflight through the correct host credentials, without selecting the stale `mosaicstack` Tea login.
-
-## Acceptance criteria
-
-- `pr-metadata.sh` returns `baseRefName=main` for U-Connect PR #1905 and PR #1908.
-- `pr-metadata.sh` returns source-branch-style `headRefName`; for Gitea `refs/pull/<n>/head` responses, normalize to `head.label`.
-- `pr-merge.sh` preserves Mosaic squash-only and base-branch policy, then uses host-matched Gitea API credentials for Gitea merges instead of a hard-coded Tea login.
-- Add regression coverage/harness for Gitea metadata normalization and merge preflight.
-- Do not print, log, or commit tokens.
-
-## Plan
-
-1. Reproduce current live metadata/login context with sanitized output.
-2. Patch repo-source shell wrappers under `packages/mosaic/framework/tools/git/`.
-3. Add a hermetic shell regression harness with fake `git`, `curl`, and `tea`.
-4. Validate with `bash -n`, shellcheck if available, regression harness, and live sanitized U-Connect wrapper calls.
-5. Apply the same script changes to the installed Mosaic wrapper location only after source changes validate, so active U-Connect merge wrappers are unblocked while the PR is reviewed.
-6. Commit, push through queue guard, open PR, and hand off to Ultron review task `t_848435ab`; do not merge.
-
-## Progress
-
-- Live sanitized metadata check before source patch:
-  - PR #1905: `baseRefName=main`, `headRefName=edith/t_39ce717c-authentik-smoke-gate`.
-  - PR #1908: `baseRefName=main`, `headRefName=refs/pull/1908/head`; raw Gitea `head.label` is `fix/t_23fa9e1d-portal-health-backend`.
-  - `tea login list` contains only `git.mosaicstack.dev`, so the prior `--login mosaicstack` default cannot work for `git.uscllc.com`.
-
-## Verification log
-
-- `bash -n packages/mosaic/framework/tools/git/detect-platform.sh packages/mosaic/framework/tools/git/pr-metadata.sh packages/mosaic/framework/tools/git/pr-merge.sh packages/mosaic/framework/tools/git/tests/pr-gitea-wrapper-regression.sh` — pass.
-- `shellcheck packages/mosaic/framework/tools/git/detect-platform.sh packages/mosaic/framework/tools/git/pr-metadata.sh packages/mosaic/framework/tools/git/pr-merge.sh packages/mosaic/framework/tools/git/tests/pr-gitea-wrapper-regression.sh` — pass when available in the Kanban runtime.
-- `TMPDIR="$PWD/.agent-tmp" bash packages/mosaic/framework/tools/git/tests/pr-gitea-wrapper-regression.sh` — pass; proves host-matched Gitea credential selection, metadata normalization, and merge dry-run preflight without invoking `tea`.
-- Live sanitized U-Connect metadata using the patched wrapper from `/src/uconnect`:
-  - PR #1905: `number=1905`, `baseRefName=main`, `headRefName=edith/t_39ce717c-authentik-smoke-gate`, `state=open`.
-  - PR #1908: `number=1908`, `baseRefName=main`, `headRefName=fix/t_23fa9e1d-portal-health-backend`, `state=closed`.
-- Live sanitized U-Connect merge preflight using `pr-merge.sh --skip-queue-guard --dry-run`:
-  - PR #1905: `Dry run: Gitea merge preflight OK for USC/uconnect#1905 targeting main via git.uscllc.com API`.
-  - PR #1908: `Dry run: Gitea merge preflight OK for USC/uconnect#1908 targeting main via git.uscllc.com API`.
-- Installed wrapper parity: `/home/hermes/.config/mosaic/tools/git/{detect-platform.sh,pr-metadata.sh,pr-merge.sh}` byte-match the PR source copies after validation, so active U-Connect wrapper invocations use the same fix while source PR review runs.
-
-## Risks / notes
-
-- `--dry-run` was added to `pr-merge.sh` to validate metadata/auth/preflight without merging a live PR.
-- Gitea branch deletion after merge remains a documented warning, matching prior behavior, and is not expanded in this fix.
-- Duplicate recovery PR #517 was closed after wrapper-first `pr-close.sh -n 517` failed headlessly with `/dev/tty`; PR #518 is the review target.
