fix: remove trailing whitespace in action.yml

- Add --vcs-url flag as primary (reads VCS_URL env var)
- Keep --gitea-url and GITEA_URL as deprecated fallbacks with warnings
- Update action.yml: rename gitea-url input to vcs-url, pass VCS_URL to binary
- Update ci.yml: use VCS_URL env var in Run review step
- Update integration tests: INTEGRATION_GITEA_URL -> INTEGRATION_VCS_URL
- Update README: --vcs-url / VCS_URL with fallback note in env var table

Backward compat: existing GITEA_URL users get a deprecation warning and
continue to work unchanged until they migrate to VCS_URL.

+# Plan: Issue #125 — Rename GITEA_URL → VCS_URL
+
+## Problem
+
+The `GITEA_URL` environment variable (and `--gitea-url` flag) implies the binary only works with Gitea.
+Now that review-bot supports both Gitea and GitHub/GHES, this name is misleading.
+Renaming to `VCS_URL` makes the binary platform-agnostic in its interface.
+
+## Constraints
+
+- Must not break existing users who already use `GITEA_URL` — need a fallback
+- The CLI flag `--gitea-url` should also be updated to `--vcs-url` for consistency
+- `INTEGRATION_GITEA_URL` in integration tests is a test-only env var, not the binary's interface; but should be updated for clarity
+- The action YAML uses `GITEA_URL` as an internal shell variable in bash scripts — distinct from the env var passed to the binary
+- All changes must compile and pass existing tests
+
+## Files Affected
+
+### Binary / Go source
+| File | Change |
+|------|--------|
+| `cmd/review-bot/main.go` | Rename `--gitea-url` → `--vcs-url`, add `VCS_URL` as primary, keep `GITEA_URL` fallback |
+| `cmd/review-bot/integration_test.go` | Rename `INTEGRATION_GITEA_URL` → `INTEGRATION_VCS_URL` (test-only, no external compat concern) |
+| `integration_test.go` | Same — rename `INTEGRATION_GITEA_URL` → `INTEGRATION_VCS_URL` |
+
+### Action YAML
+| File | Change |
+|------|--------|
+| `.gitea/actions/review/action.yml` | Rename input `gitea-url` → `vcs-url`; update env var passed to binary: `VCS_URL` instead of `GITEA_URL`; keep internal bash var as `GITEA_URL` (only used for release download, not passed to binary) |
+| `.gitea/workflows/ci.yml` | Rename `GITEA_URL` env var to `VCS_URL` in Run review step |
+
+### Documentation
+| File | Change |
+|------|--------|
+| `README.md` | Update CLI example, env var table entry |
+
+## Proposed Approach
+
+### 1. Backward-compatible env var lookup in main.go
+
+Replace:
+```go
+giteaURL := flag.String("gitea-url", envOrDefault("GITEA_URL", ""), "Gitea instance URL")
+```
+
+With:
+```go
+giteaURL := flag.String("vcs-url", envOrDefaultFallback("VCS_URL", "GITEA_URL", ""), "VCS server URL (e.g. https://gitea.example.com)")
+```
+
+Add a helper:
+```go
+// envOrDefaultFallback reads primary env var; if empty, falls back to deprecated env var.
+func envOrDefaultFallback(primary, deprecated, defaultVal string) string {
+    if v := os.Getenv(primary); v != "" {
+        return v
+    }
+    if v := os.Getenv(deprecated); v != "" {
+        slog.Warn("deprecated env var in use; rename to " + primary, "old", deprecated, "new", primary)
+        return v
+    }
+    return defaultVal
+}
+```
+
+**Note:** This must be called AFTER `setupLogger` conceptually, but the flag default is evaluated at flag registration time. Since `setupLogger` runs before `flag.Parse()`, the slog.Warn will print correctly at runtime. We use `log.Printf` as a fallback if this proves problematic.
+
+Actually — flag defaults are evaluated at registration (line 57), before `setupLogger`. The warning won't go through slog. Two options:
+- Use `log.Printf` for the deprecation warning (always visible)
+- Move the fallback lookup to after `flag.Parse()`, checking if the parsed value is still empty
+
+**Decision:** Move fallback to a post-parse check. This is cleaner:
+```go
+vcsURL := flag.String("vcs-url", os.Getenv("VCS_URL"), "VCS server URL")
+flag.Parse()
+// Backward compat: fall back to deprecated GITEA_URL
+if *vcsURL == "" {
+    if v := os.Getenv("GITEA_URL"); v != "" {
+        slog.Warn("GITEA_URL is deprecated; use VCS_URL instead")
+        *vcsURL = v
+    }
+}
+```
+
+This is clean, idiomatic, and the warning goes through slog correctly.
+
+### 2. Keep `--gitea-url` as deprecated alias
+
+Add a hidden flag for backward compat:
+```go
+giteaURLAlias := flag.String("gitea-url", "", "Deprecated: use --vcs-url")
+```
+
+Post-parse:
+```go
+if *vcsURL == "" && *giteaURLAlias != "" {
+    slog.Warn("--gitea-url is deprecated; use --vcs-url instead")
+    *vcsURL = *giteaURLAlias
+}
+```
+
+### 3. Internal variable rename
+
+Rename `giteaURL` local variable → `vcsURL` throughout `main.go` for consistency.
+
+### 4. Error message update
+
+```go
+fmt.Fprintf(os.Stderr, "Required: --vcs-url, --repo, --pr, --reviewer-token, --llm-model\n")
+```
+
+### 5. Action YAML changes
+
+In `.gitea/actions/review/action.yml`:
+- Input `gitea-url` → `vcs-url` (with same description, `required: false`, `default: ''`)
+- Line 172: `GITEA_URL: ${{ inputs.gitea-url || github.server_url }}` → `VCS_URL: ${{ inputs.vcs-url || github.server_url }}`
+- Lines 115, 140: internal bash vars `GITEA_URL=` are used for downloading binaries — NOT passed to the review-bot binary. Leave them as internal bash vars (they're scope-local in bash). These could be renamed to `SERVER_URL` or `BASE_URL` for local clarity, but renaming them isn't strictly required.
+
+In `.gitea/workflows/ci.yml`:
+- Line 52: `GITEA_URL: ${{ github.server_url }}` → `VCS_URL: ${{ github.server_url }}`
+
+### 6. Integration test updates
+
+`INTEGRATION_GITEA_URL` → `INTEGRATION_VCS_URL` in both test files.
+
+### 7. README
+
+- CLI example: `--gitea-url` → `--vcs-url`
+- Env var table: `GITEA_URL` → `VCS_URL`, add note about `GITEA_URL` fallback
+
+## Backward Compatibility Summary
+
+| Old | New | Fallback? |
+|-----|-----|-----------|
+| `GITEA_URL` env var | `VCS_URL` | ✅ with deprecation warning |
+| `--gitea-url` flag | `--vcs-url` | ✅ with deprecation warning |
+| `gitea-url` action input | `vcs-url` | ⚠️ No (action version bump handles this) |
+| `INTEGRATION_GITEA_URL` | `INTEGRATION_VCS_URL` | N/A (test-only) |
+
+## Error Cases
+
+- Both `VCS_URL` and `GITEA_URL` set: `VCS_URL` wins (primary takes precedence)
+- Both `--vcs-url` and `--gitea-url` provided: `--vcs-url` wins
+- Neither set: existing "missing required flags" error unchanged
+
+## Edge Cases
+
+- `os.Getenv` returns "" for unset AND set-to-empty — consistent with existing behavior
+- The `envOrDefault` helper is unchanged; we add `envOrDefaultFallback` for the one renamed var
+
+## Testing Strategy
+
+- Existing unit tests pass unchanged (they don't test env var parsing directly)
+- Integration tests updated to use new env var name
+- Manual: `GITEA_URL=https://example.com ./review-bot --repo x --pr 1 ...` should print deprecation warning and proceed
+- Manual: `VCS_URL=https://example.com ./review-bot ...` should work silently
+
+## Completion Checklist
+
+1. `VCS_URL` is read first; `GITEA_URL` is fallback with deprecation warning
+2. `--vcs-url` flag is primary; `--gitea-url` is deprecated alias with warning
+3. Error message references `--vcs-url` not `--gitea-url`
+4. `action.yml` passes `VCS_URL` (not `GITEA_URL`) to the binary
+5. `ci.yml` passes `VCS_URL` (not `GITEA_URL`) to the binary
+6. README updated in CLI example and env var table
+7. Integration tests use `INTEGRATION_VCS_URL`
+8. `go test ./...` passes
+9. `go vet ./...` passes
+10. `go build ./cmd/review-bot` succeeds
+
+## Open Questions
+
+- Should the CLI flag `--gitea-url` be completely hidden from `--help` or just deprecated with a note? The issue doesn't specify. Decision: keep it visible but add "(deprecated: use --vcs-url)" to the description.
+- Should action.yml also add `gitea-url` as a deprecated input alias? The issue says "Update the action to pass the new env var name" — no mention of backward compat for the action input. Decision: rename only, no alias (action users pin a version anyway).
+- The bash-internal `GITEA_URL` variable in action.yml scripts (used for release download, not passed to binary) — rename for clarity? Decision: yes, rename to `BASE_URL` to avoid confusion with the env var.
