GitLab Merge Request Creator

Context

• Current git status: !git status --porcelain
• Current branch: !git branch --show-current
• Recent commits: !git log --oneline -5
• GitLab remote: !git remote -v | grep gitlab | head -1
• glab version: !glab version 2>/dev/null || echo "NOT_INSTALLED"
• glab auth status: !glab auth status 2>&1 || echo "NOT_AUTHENTICATED"
• Unpushed commits: !git log @{u}..HEAD --oneline 2>/dev/null || echo "NO_UPSTREAM"
• Repo root: !git rev-parse --show-toplevel 2>/dev/null || echo "NOT_A_GIT_REPO"

Your Task

Create a GitLab merge request using the mcp__omniforge__create_gitlab_mr MCP tool.

Why MCP instead of raw bash? The MCP tool validates all inputs, uses safe subprocess execution (no shell interpretation), and provides structured error output — making it safe for use by all models without risk of shell injection.

Prerequisites

1. Verify glab is installed. If not, inform the user:

   brew install glab  # macOS
   

2. Verify the current directory is a git repository with a GitLab remote.
3. Ensure there are commits to create an MR from (not on main/master without changes).

Pre-Flight Checklist

Before creating the MR, verify:

• glab is installed and authenticated
• Not on main/master branch
• Has commits to merge (not empty)
• No uncommitted changes (warn if present)
• Branch has upstream or can be pushed

MCP Tool: mcp__omniforge__create_gitlab_mr

Use this tool for all MR creation. It wraps glab mr create safely.
