Fossil Forge Bridge

Capability: contract:tracker + contract:source-control Kind: implementation Vendor: Fossil

Fossil SCM forge and tracker bridge implementation for the Apache Magpie framework. It integrates version-control checks, ticket tracking, wiki reads, and forum thread reads.

Prerequisites

  • Runtime: Python 3.11+ run via uv (stdlib-only, no third-party dependencies).
  • CLIs: fossil (for repository interactions).
  • Credentials / auth: None (local-only; reads are direct SQL queries on the repository database).
  • Network: Mostly offline. Requires the repository to be cloned locally, and reads/writes locally before syncs.

Features

  1. VCS Repositories: Standard version control operations via the magpie-vcs backend shim.
  2. Issue Tracker: Read/write operations (create ticket, comment, update status, change fields) on the Fossil ticket subsystem.
  3. Wiki: Read/list operations for wiki pages.
  4. Forum: Read/list operations for forum posts and threads.

Invocation

# Get ticket details
uv run --project tools/fossil magpie-fossil ticket get TICKET_UUID

# Create comment on a ticket
uv run --project tools/fossil magpie-fossil ticket comment TICKET_UUID --body "Nice fix!"

# List wiki pages
uv run --project tools/fossil magpie-fossil wiki list

Configuration

The bridge resolves the Fossil repository from the checkout directories (.fslckg or _FOSSIL_) or via the -R/--repository argument.
