+## Forgejo Platform Support
+
+This fork adds Forgejo support via a lean adapter pattern — only 4 genuinely different areas have Forgejo-specific code:
+
+- **`src/platform/detector.ts`** — Three-tier platform detection (explicit input > `FORGEJO` env > `GITHUB_SERVER_URL` heuristic)
+- **`src/forgejo/token.ts`** — Direct token handling (skips OIDC exchange)
+- **`src/forgejo/data/fetcher.ts`** — REST-based data fetching (replaces 3 GraphQL queries with 5-8 parallel REST calls)
+- **`src/forgejo/comment-logic.ts`** — Forgejo URL patterns for tracking comments
+
+All other `src/github/` modules work on Forgejo via Octokit REST as-is (permissions, comments, branches, git config, context, formatter).
+
+**Key integration points** (these files have platform branches and are merge-conflict surface):
+
+- `src/entrypoints/run.ts` — Platform branch at top for token setup
+- `src/modes/tag/index.ts` — Data fetcher swap (`fetchForgejoData` vs `fetchGitHubData`)
+- `src/github/operations/comments/create-initial.ts` — Platform-aware spinner/URL format
+- `src/github/operations/comments/update-with-branch.ts` — Forgejo PR compare URL
+- `src/github/validation/actor.ts` — Skipped on Forgejo (no bot accounts)
+- `src/mcp/install-mcp-server.ts` — Skips GitHub public MCP server on Forgejo
+
+**MCP server names stay the same** (`github_comment`, `github_ci`, etc.) even on Forgejo — changing them would require updating hardcoded tool name lists in `src/modes/tag/index.ts`.
+
+**CI**: `.forgejo/workflows/` contains `ci.yml`, `test-action.yml`, and `upstream-sync.yml`. Unit tests run with `GITHUB_SERVER_URL=https://github.com` override on Forgejo runners.

+## Forgejo-Specific Questions
+
+### Can I use this action on Forgejo?
+
+Yes. Set `platform: "forgejo"` in your workflow and provide a `github_token` with repo access. See the [Forgejo Setup Guide](./forgejo.md) for complete instructions.
+
+### Why is GraphQL not used on Forgejo?
+
+Forgejo doesn't have a GraphQL API. The action uses parallel REST API calls instead, which provides the same data with slightly more HTTP requests. This is handled automatically — no configuration needed.
+
+### Why is actor validation skipped on Forgejo?
+
+Forgejo has no bot or app accounts, so the bot/app check that GitHub uses is unnecessary. Additionally, the `read:user` scope required for `getByUsername()` isn't available with standard Forgejo workflow tokens.
+
+### Why does `oven-sh/setup-bun` fail on my Forgejo runner?
+
+Forgejo runners pre-fetch all `uses:` action references before evaluating `if:` conditions. If `oven-sh/setup-bun` isn't mirrored to your Forgejo instance, the prefetch fails even when the step would be skipped. This fork replaces it with a universal `curl` install that works on both platforms.
+
+### How do I keep my Forgejo fork in sync with upstream?
+
+The included `upstream-sync.yml` workflow runs weekly and creates an issue when upstream has new commits. It includes merge instructions and lists the conflict-prone files. See [Merging Upstream Changes](./forgejo.md#merging-upstream-changes).
+
 ## Best Practices

+# Forgejo Platform Support
+
+This action supports [Forgejo](https://forgejo.org/) (and Forgejo Actions) as an alternative to GitHub. The same action code runs on both platforms — platform detection is automatic or explicitly configured.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+- **Forgejo instance** with [Forgejo Actions](https://forgejo.org/docs/latest/user/actions/) enabled
+- **Forgejo runner** registered and operational (e.g., a `grunt` or `ubuntu-latest` runner)
+- **Anthropic API key** or **Claude Code OAuth token** for Claude API access
+- **Forgejo token** with repo access (automatically available as `github.token` in workflows, or use a dedicated token)
+
+## Quick Start
+
+### 1. Add Secrets
+
+In your Forgejo repository, go to **Settings > Actions > Secrets** and add:
+
+- `ANTHROPIC_API_KEY` — Your Anthropic API key (starting with `sk-ant-`)
+
+If you need a dedicated token for Claude's GitHub operations (recommended for tag mode):
+
+- `FORGEJO_CLAUDE_TOKEN` — A Forgejo personal access token with `repo` scope
+
+### 2. Create Workflow
+
+Create `.forgejo/workflows/claude.yml`:
+
+```yaml
+name: Claude Assistant
+on:
+  issue_comment:
+    types: [created]
+  pull_request_review_comment:
+    types: [created]
+  issues:
+    types: [opened, assigned, labeled]
+  pull_request_review:
+    types: [submitted]
+
+jobs:
+  claude-response:
+    runs-on: grunt # Your Forgejo runner label
+    steps:
+      - uses: https://git.wxs.ro/actions/claude-code-action@v1 # Or your mirror URL
+        with:
+          anthropic_api_key: ${{ secrets.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY }}
+          platform: "forgejo"
+          github_token: ${{ secrets.FORGEJO_CLAUDE_TOKEN }}
+```
+
+### 3. Agent Mode (Automation)
+
+For automation workflows triggered by `workflow_dispatch`, push events, or schedules:
+
+```yaml
+name: Claude Automation
+on:
+  workflow_dispatch:
+    inputs:
+      task:
+        description: "Task for Claude"
+        required: true
+
+jobs:
+  run-claude:
+    runs-on: grunt
+    steps:
+      - uses: https://git.wxs.ro/actions/claude-code-action@v1
+        with:
+          prompt: ${{ github.event.inputs.task }}
+          anthropic_api_key: ${{ secrets.ANTHROPIC_API_KEY }}
+          platform: "forgejo"
+          github_token: ${{ secrets.FORGEJO_CLAUDE_TOKEN }}
+```
+
+## Platform Detection
+
+The action detects the platform using a three-tier strategy:
+
+| Priority | Method                            | Details                                                  |
+| -------- | --------------------------------- | -------------------------------------------------------- |
+| 1        | **Explicit input**                | `platform: "forgejo"` in workflow — most reliable        |
+| 2        | **`FORGEJO` env var**             | Set to `"true"` by Forgejo runner v7.0+                  |
+| 3        | **`GITHUB_SERVER_URL` heuristic** | If the URL doesn't contain `github.com`, assumes Forgejo |
+
+**Recommendation**: Always set `platform: "forgejo"` explicitly. Auto-detection works but the explicit input eliminates ambiguity.
+
+## Differences from GitHub
+
+### Authentication
+
+| Aspect                   | GitHub                          | Forgejo                                 |
+| ------------------------ | ------------------------------- | --------------------------------------- |
+| **Default auth**         | GitHub App OIDC token exchange  | Direct `GITHUB_TOKEN` / `FORGEJO_TOKEN` |
+| **Token setup**          | Automatic via Claude GitHub App | Manual — provide `github_token` input   |
+| **App token revocation** | Automatic cleanup step          | Skipped (no app token)                  |
+| **Bot identity**         | `claude[bot]` (ID: 41898282)    | Token owner's identity                  |
+
+On Forgejo, there is no OIDC token exchange with Anthropic. The action uses the workflow token (`github.token`) or a user-provided `github_token` directly.
+
+### API Differences
+
+| Feature               | GitHub                                      | Forgejo                                                             |
+| --------------------- | ------------------------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------- |
+| **GraphQL API**       | Used for PR/issue data fetching             | Not available — REST API only                                       |
+| **Data fetching**     | Single GraphQL query per entity             | 5-8 parallel REST API calls                                         |
+| **Actor validation**  | Checks for bot/app accounts                 | Skipped — no bot accounts on Forgejo                                |
+| **GitHub MCP server** | `ghcr.io/github/github-mcp-server` included | Skipped — GitHub-specific                                           |
+| **CI/Actions MCP**    | Full GitHub Actions API                     | Works via Octokit REST + `GITHUB_API_URL`                           |
+| **Permission check**  | `getCollaboratorPermissionLevel()`          | `repos.get()` fallback (workflow tokens lack collaborator endpoint) |
+
+### Bun Installation
+
+The upstream action uses `oven-sh/setup-bun`. On Forgejo, this is replaced with a universal `curl` install because Forgejo runners pre-fetch all `uses:` action references before evaluating `if:` conditions, causing failures for GitHub-hosted actions that aren't mirrored.
+
+### Comment URLs
+
+Comment tracking URLs (job links, branch links, PR creation links) use Forgejo URL patterns instead of GitHub patterns. This is handled automatically.
+
+## Action Inputs
+
+The `platform` input is the only Forgejo-specific addition:
+
+```yaml
+platform:
+  description: "Platform to run on: 'auto' (default auto-detects), 'github', or 'forgejo'"
+  required: false
+  default: "auto"
+```
+
+All other inputs work identically on both platforms. See the [Usage Guide](./usage.md) for the full list.
+
+## Included CI Workflows
+
+This fork includes three Forgejo-native workflows in `.forgejo/workflows/`:
+
+### `ci.yml` — Tests, Formatting, Type Checking
+
+Runs on push to `main` and pull requests. Three parallel jobs:
+
+- `test` — `bun test` (with `GITHUB_SERVER_URL` override so GitHub-context unit tests pass)
+- `prettier` — `bun run format:check`
+- `typecheck` — `bun run typecheck`
+
+### `test-action.yml` — Action Self-Test
+
+Tests the action itself on Forgejo in agent mode. Runs weekly and on PRs that modify `src/`, `action.yml`, or `.forgejo/`. Validates:
+
+- Platform detection returns "forgejo"
+- Token authentication works
+- Claude Code executes successfully
+- Output file is produced
+
+### `upstream-sync.yml` — Upstream Sync Check
+
+Runs weekly. Compares `main` with `upstream/main` (anthropics/claude-code-action). If upstream has new commits:
+
+- Creates or updates an issue with the `upstream-sync` label
+- Includes commit log, diff stats, and merge instructions
+- Lists conflict-prone files
+
+## Merging Upstream Changes
+
+This fork is designed for easy upstream merges. Only 4-5 files have Forgejo-specific modifications, and changes are placed at function entry points using an early-return pattern.
+
+### Merge Process
+
+```bash
+# Fetch latest upstream
+git fetch upstream main
+
+# Merge into your main branch
+git merge upstream/main
+
+# If conflicts occur, they'll be in these files:
+#   - src/entrypoints/run.ts (platform branch at top)
+#   - src/modes/tag/index.ts (data fetcher swap)
+#   - src/mcp/install-mcp-server.ts (platform routing)
+#   - action.yml (platform input, bun install)
+
+# Resolve conflicts, keeping both the upstream changes and
+# the Forgejo platform branches at function entry points
+
+# Run tests to verify
+bun test
+
+# Push
+git push origin main
+```
+
+### Conflict Mitigation
+
+All Forgejo changes follow the **early-return pattern** — platform-specific logic is placed at the top of functions, before the existing GitHub code. This means:
+
+- Upstream changes to the GitHub code path rarely conflict with Forgejo additions
+- When conflicts do occur, they're localized to the few lines where the platform branch starts
+- Resolution is straightforward: keep both the platform check and the upstream changes
+
+### What Happens When Upstream Adds New Features
+
+New upstream features that use GraphQL or GitHub-specific APIs won't automatically work on Forgejo. The Forgejo data fetcher (`src/forgejo/data/fetcher.ts`) would need REST equivalents added. The action will still run — features that depend on missing data will simply lack that context.
+
+## Known Limitations
+
+- **Tag mode (issue/PR triggers)**: Code is wired but only agent mode (workflow_dispatch) has been E2E tested on Forgejo. Tag mode should work but hasn't been validated with real issue/PR webhooks yet.
+- **`pull_request_target` event**: May not exist in Forgejo. The action degrades gracefully (maps to `pull_request`).
+- **GitHub MCP server**: The `ghcr.io/github/github-mcp-server` Docker image is GitHub-specific and is skipped on Forgejo.
+- **Commit signing**: SSH signing has not been tested on Forgejo. The `use_commit_signing` option (GitHub API signing) won't work since it uses GitHub's commit API.
+- **`downloadJobLogForWorkflowRun`**: Forgejo's Actions API may lack this endpoint. The CI MCP server attempts it via Octokit REST but may return limited data.
+- **Bot filtering**: `allowed_bots` checks won't match `claude[bot]` since Forgejo has no bot accounts. Actor validation is skipped entirely on Forgejo.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+### "Resource not accessible by integration" errors
+
+This usually means the token lacks permissions. On Forgejo:
+
+- Use a personal access token with `repo` scope via the `github_token` input
+- The default `github.token` in Forgejo workflows may have limited permissions depending on your runner configuration
+
+### Tests fail with platform detection errors
+
+Unit tests assume GitHub context by default. When running on a Forgejo runner, set `GITHUB_SERVER_URL=https://github.com` before running tests (the CI workflow handles this automatically).
+
+### Bun installation fails
+
+If `curl -fsSL https://bun.sh/install | bash` fails on your runner, pre-install Bun on the runner image or use the `path_to_bun_executable` input to point to a custom Bun binary.
+
+### Upstream workflows run and fail
+
+If `.github/workflows/` from upstream are executing on your Forgejo runner, configure the runner to only read from `.forgejo/workflows/`. This is a runner-level setting — see your Forgejo instance's runner configuration.
