jschoubben ed094031fd The forge mints its own API token with the admin account the vault delivers
The runtime beside the forge served 0 tools: GiteaClient.fromEnv required a token
(settings or MESH_GITEA_TOKEN), nobody had one to give — the mesh raised the forge —
and putting one in settings would store a secret in plaintext in the inventory. So
the fifteen tools registered nothing and the watcher logged "not watching".

What the mesh does deliver is the admin account: a login the manifest names and a
password the vault minted and the host unsealed into a file (ADR 0086). That is
enough to mint a token, so the module does (hq issue 100, the forge's tools):
POST /users/{admin}/tokens over basic auth, scoped to write:repository and
write:issue — the least the tools and the repo watcher need — kept at 0600 in the
module's own state (/var/lib/mesh/gitea/state, a new directory resource the runtime
mounts writable), read back on the next start, and minted afresh when the forge
answers 401 to it or the kept file is gone. A forge whose data came from the
predecessor has no mesh-admin: that is reported in plain words on every poll until
it clears, once per reason, not crash-looped. A configured token still wins and is
never minted over.

The mint happens on the first call, not at registration: a contributor is
synchronous, and a forge not yet answering must not keep the runtime from serving.
One source per kept file in a process, or the watcher and the tools would each
renew on a 401 and drop the other's token by name.

// gitea's events. The tool runtime imports this once the broker is bound. It watches the forge and
// emits what appeared.
//
// Emits (novox/hq ADR 0041/0042):
// module.gitea.repo.created — a repository appeared, however it was made (push, web UI, or tool)
//
// issue.opened and pull.merged are emitted from the tools (tools/index.ts), at the instant the mesh
// takes that action — the natural point, and one process only. repo.created belongs here instead:
// a repository is usually born from a `git push` or the web UI, which no tool sees, so polling the
// repo list is the only way to catch every path — and keeping it out of the create-repo tool means
// the fact is never announced twice from two processes.
//
// The polling is deliberately unhurried: an event a minute late is still an event, whereas hammering
// the forge for an immediacy nobody asked for is not.
