gitlab-mcp

A local MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that connects a coding agent to GitLab, a platform for hosting code and managing software projects. It exposes GitLab operations for 26 kinds of records, such as projects or issues.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it for GitLab tasks such as working with projects, issues, and other supported records. The description does not specify the individual operations.
Why use it?
It lets the agent work with GitLab through a single local connection instead of requiring separate integrations for each operation. It can be configured with a GitLab token, server address, and read-only setting.

Getting it into your agent

One page per mod, every tool's command on it. A separate URL per tool would split the same page into five that compete with each other.

Grade A, and why

gitlab-mcp scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 2d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
