Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

wicked-garden-platform-glab-cli 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 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/glab_ops.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

GitLab CLI Power Utilities

Skill-local scripts (scripts/glab_ops.py) are stdlib-only and run base-directory-relative with python3 (py -3 on Windows).

Intelligent wrappers and patterns for GitLab CLI operations.

When to Use

  • Debugging failed GitLab CI/CD pipelines
  • Managing merge requests across projects
  • Automating releases
  • Bulk operations on issues/MRs
  • Project health checks

Prerequisites

# macOS
brew install glab

# Or download from https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cli

# Authenticate
glab auth login

Core Capabilities

1. Pipeline Debugging

Get actionable errors from failed pipelines.

# Diagnose most recent failure
python3 scripts/glab_ops.py diagnose

# Specific project
python3 scripts/glab_ops.py diagnose --project group/project

# With suggested fixes
python3 scripts/glab_ops.py diagnose --suggest-fixes

Output: Job failures, error excerpts, timing info.

2. MR Operations

Merge request management at scale.

# List MRs needing review
python3 scripts/glab_ops.py mr-review-queue

# MRs ready to merge (approved + passing)
python3 scripts/glab_ops.py mr-merge-ready --dry-run

# MR health check
python3 scripts/glab_ops.py mr-status 123

3. Release Automation

Create releases with changelogs.

# Preview release
python3 scripts/glab_ops.py release --dry-run

# Create minor release
python3 scripts/glab_ops.py release --bump minor

# With custom notes
python3 scripts/glab_ops.py release --notes "Breaking: API v2"

Quick Patterns

# Watch pipeline
glab ci view --live

# Retry failed jobs
glab ci retry

# View job logs
glab ci trace <job-id>

# Create MR from current branch
glab mr create --fill

# Checkout MR locally
glab mr checkout 123

# View MR changes
glab mr diff 123

# Approve MR
glab mr approve 123

# Merge MR
glab mr merge 123 --squash --remove-source-branch

glab vs gh Quick Reference

Task GitHub (gh) GitLab (glab)
Create PR/MR gh pr create glab mr create
List CI runs gh run list glab ci list
View CI logs gh run view --log glab ci trace
Watch CI gh run watch glab ci view --live
Retry CI gh run rerun --failed glab ci retry
Checkout PR/MR gh pr checkout 123 glab mr checkout 123

Files

What ships with it

4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.
