What the publisher says
From the Gitlab repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub
gitlab-mcp
An MCP server for gitlab.com. One binary over stdio, signed in as you. It works inside projects: issues, merge requests, reviews, the repository and CI. Instance and group administration, runners, CI variables and tokens are out of scope.
Unofficial, and not affiliated with GitLab Inc. See NOTICE.
What makes this one different
than an API mirror, and a tool that is switched off is not registered, so it cannot be called at all.
- A small surface, gated by registration. About fifty tools rather
refused or escaped, never executed.
- Nothing it writes runs a quick action. /merge in a comment is
logs come back inside boundaries the content cannot close.
- Content is marked as untrusted. Issues, reviews, files and job
tab, the token in the OS keyring.
- Signs in like a desktop app. Your own OAuth application, a browser
- Verifiable releases. Signed checksums, build provenance and SBOMs.
Status
Stable: the release badge above names the newest tag, and CHANGELOG.md says what each one holds. The tool surface is a contract: tools keep their names and output fields. docs/architecture.md §16 is the plan.
Tools
Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
Nothing above is checked by us. What we check is on the safety report.
