This PR introduces project workflows, allowing users to configure
event-based automations directly from the UI.
Users can define filters and actions for each workflow event, and
duplicate existing events when needed.
### Concepts
Every workflow is composed of `event`, `filters`, and `actions`.
- **Event** - An Event defines when a workflow should be triggered. It
represents specific activities such as an issue being added to the
project, a pull request being merged, or a project column being changed.
- **Filter** - A Filter refines when an event should take effect. It
allows users to specify conditions like issue type, labels, or project
columns to ensure actions only run in targeted scenarios.
- **Action** - An Action defines what happens when the event and filters
match. It performs operations such as adding labels, moving issues
between columns, or changing the issue or pull request state.
### Available Events
Currently, the following eight events are supported:
- On issues/pull requests closed
- On issues/pull requests reopened
- On issues/pull requests was added to the project, including when
created in it
- On issues/pull requests was removed from the project
- On issues/pull requests' column was changed
- On code changes requested
- On code review approved
- On pull request merged
Each event type supports its own set of filters and actions.
### Available Filters
There are four types of filters that can be configured for an event:
- **Apply to** - Specify the target type: `issues only`, `pull requests
only`, or `issues and pull requests`.
- **Labels** - Trigger the event only if the issue or pull request
contains one or more specified labels.
- **Move from column** - Filter events based on the original project
column.
- **Move to column** - Filter events based on the destination project
column.
### Available Actions
There are four types of actions that can be executed when an event is
triggered:
- **Add labels** - Automatically add one or more labels to the issue or
pull request.
- **Remove labels** - Remove one or more specified labels.
- **Move to column** - Move the issue or pull request to a designated
project column.
- **Issue state** - Close or reopen the issue. Pull requests can only be
closed.
### Enable/Disable an event workflow
Each event workflow can be individually enabled or disabled. When
disabled, the workflow will be ignored even if the event occurs. This
feature is useful when you want to temporarily stop certain automated
actions without deleting the workflow configuration. Workflows of closed
projects don't run either.
### Clone an event workflow
When you need multiple workflows for the same event, you can clone an
existing event to create a new one with different filters and actions.
This allows you to customize how the same event behaves under different
conditions, making workflows more flexible and powerful.
### Permissions
Permissions are checked when workflows are managed, not when they run:
- Viewing a project's workflows needs read access to the project
- Managing them needs write access to the project plus write access to
both issues and pull requests of a repository project's repository,
being an owner of an organization project's organization or a site
administrator, or being the user of a user project. Tokens limited to
public repositories can't manage owner-level projects' workflows
- A workflow runs when its event happens to an item of an open project
that can hold the item's repository, unless that repository is archived,
no matter who caused the event, and applies its actions without further
permission checks. Pull requests are never reopened
- Changes show as made by "Project workflow" on behalf of the user who
triggered the event and don't trigger other workflows
- Only users who can read an item can put it on a board or move its card
The management rule is also documented on `CanManageWorkflows` in
`services/projects/workflow.go`.

before: gitrepo vs git packages
after: git package fully handle all git operations
by the way, use `WithRepo(repo)` instead of `WithDir(repo.Path)` to hide
path details.
benefits:
1. remove all unnecessary wrappers, developers no need to struggle with
"which package should be used"
2. simplify code, RepositoryFacade can (will) be used everywhere, all
"path" details are (will be) hidden
## Background
`MAX_CREATION_LIMIT` applies to whoever owns a new repository, with no
distinction between individual users and organizations. Admins who want
different limits for the two - most commonly "block personal repos but
let orgs create freely" - currently have to set per-user / per-org
overrides on every entity.
## Changes
Adds two new `[repository]` settings:
- `USER_MAX_CREATION_LIMIT`: global limit for individual users
- `ORG_MAX_CREATION_LIMIT`: global limit for organizations
`MAX_CREATION_LIMIT` is kept as a shortcut: when set, it becomes the
default value for both new keys. When the new keys are explicitly
configured, they take precedence. Deployments that only set
`MAX_CREATION_LIMIT` see behavior identical to now.

Use shared repo permission resolution for Actions task users in issue
label remove and clear paths, and add a regression test for deleting
issue labels with a Gitea Actions token.
This fixes issue label deletion when the request is authenticated with a
Gitea Actions token.
Fixes#37011
The bug was that the delete path re-resolved repository permissions
using the normal user permission helper, which does not handle Actions
task users. As a result, `DELETE
/api/v1/repos/{owner}/{repo}/issues/{index}/labels/{id}` could return
`500` for Actions tokens even though label listing and label addition
worked.

## Overview
This PR introduces granular permission controls for Gitea Actions tokens
(`GITEA_TOKEN`), aligning Gitea's security model with GitHub Actions
standards while maintaining compatibility with Gitea's unique repository
unit system.
It addresses the need for finer access control by allowing
administrators and repository owners to define default token
permissions, set maximum permission ceilings, and control
cross-repository access within organizations.
## Key Features
### 1. Granular Token Permissions
- **Standard Keyword Support**: Implements support for the
`permissions:` keyword in workflow and job YAML files (e.g., `contents:
read`, `issues: write`).
- **Permission Modes**:
- **Permissive**: Default write access for most units (backwards
compatible).
- **Restricted**: Default read-only access for `contents` and
`packages`, with no access to other units.
- ~~**Custom**: Allows defining specific default levels for each unit
type (Code, Issues, PRs, Packages, etc.).~~**EDIT removed UI was
confusing**
- **Clamping Logic**: Workflow-defined permissions are automatically
"clamped" by repository or organization-level maximum settings.
Workflows cannot escalate their own permissions beyond these limits.
### 2. Organization & Repository Settings
- **Settings UI**: Added new settings pages at both Organization and
Repository levels to manage Actions token defaults and maximums.
- **Inheritance**: Repositories can be configured to "Follow
organization-level configuration," simplifying management across large
organizations.
- **Cross-Repository Access**: Added a policy to control whether Actions
workflows can access other repositories or packages within the same
organization. This can be set to "None," "All," or restricted to a
"Selected" list of repositories.
### 3. Security Hardening
- **Fork Pull Request Protection**: Tokens for workflows triggered by
pull requests from forks are strictly enforced as read-only, regardless
of repository settings.
- ~~**Package Access**: Actions tokens can now only access packages
explicitly linked to a repository, with cross-repo access governed by
the organization's security policy.~~ **EDIT removed
https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/pull/36173#issuecomment-3873675346**
- **Git Hook Integration**: Propagates Actions Task IDs to git hooks to
ensure that pushes performed by Actions tokens respect the specific
permissions granted at runtime.
### 4. Technical Implementation
- **Permission Persistence**: Parsed permissions are calculated at job
creation and stored in the `action_run_job` table. This ensures the
token's authority is deterministic throughout the job's lifecycle.
- **Parsing Priority**: Implemented a priority system in the YAML parser
where the broad `contents` scope is applied first, allowing granular
scopes like `code` or `releases` to override it for precise control.
- **Re-runs**: Permissions are re-evaluated during a job re-run to
incorporate any changes made to repository settings in the interim.
### How to Test
1. **Unit Tests**: Run `go test ./services/actions/...` and `go test
./models/repo/...` to verify parsing logic and permission clamping.
2. **Integration Tests**: Comprehensive tests have been added to
`tests/integration/actions_job_token_test.go` covering:
- Permissive vs. Restricted mode behavior.
- YAML `permissions:` keyword evaluation.
- Organization cross-repo access policies.
- Resource access (Git, API, and Packages) under various permission
configs.
3. **Manual Verification**:
- Navigate to **Site/Org/Repo Settings -> Actions -> General**.
- Change "Default Token Permissions" and verify that newly triggered
workflows reflect these changes in their `GITEA_TOKEN` capabilities.
- Attempt a cross-repo API call from an Action and verify the Org policy
is enforced.

- Both have `RejectTransfer` and `CancelTransfer` because the permission
checks are not the same. `CancelTransfer` can be done by the doer or
those who have admin permission to access this repository.
`RejectTransfer` can be done by the receiver user if it's an individual
or those who can create repositories if it's an organization.
- Some tests are wrong, this PR corrects them.

`RepoTransfer` now is at models, but if we want to move it into `repo`
model, it will depend on `Team`. So this PR also makes repo model depend
on org model to make it possible. Just refactor, no code change.
- [x] Move `DeleteOrganization` from `models/organization` to service
layer
- [x] Move `AccessibleTeamReposEnv` to `models/repo`
- [x] Move `RepoTransfer` from `models` to `models/repo`
- [x] Merge `getUserTeamIDs` and `GetUserTeamIDs`, Merge `GetUserTeams`
and `getUserTeams`.
- [x] Remove `Team`'s `Repos []*repo_model.Repository` to avoid dependency recycle.
There are still some functions under `models` after last big refactor
about `models`. This change will move all team related functions to
service layer with no code change.
- [x] Move `CreateRepositoryByExample` to service layer
- [x] Move `AddCollabrator` to service layer
- [x] Add a new parameter for `AddCollabrator` so that changing mode
immediately after that will become unnecessary.
When transferring repositories that have issues linked to a project
board to another organization, the issues remain associated with the
original project board. This causes the columns in the project board to
become bugged, making it difficult to move other issues in or out of the
affected columns. As a solution, I removed the issue relations since the
other organization does not have this project table.

Follow #30495
"HasAccess" behavior wasn't clear, to make it clear:
* Use a new name `HasAnyUnitAccess`, it will be easier to review related
code and permission problems.
* Separate everyone access mode to a separate field, then all calls to
HasAccess are reverted to old behavior before #30495.
* Add new tests.
