glab-api

glab-api is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from serejaris/kimi-skills. It costs 73 tokens per session (1,464 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A glab command for making authenticated requests directly to GitLab's REST or GraphQL API. APIs are interfaces that let software request data or perform actions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Sending custom API requests, querying advanced GitLab data, and accessing REST or GraphQL endpoints.
Why use it?
It covers GitLab operations that do not have a dedicated glab command and can return JSON for scripts.

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

glab-api 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 9d 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.

  The endpoint argument should either be a path of a GitLab API v4 endpoint, or                                         
  `graphql` to access the GitLab GraphQL API.

  If the current directory is a Git directory, uses the GitLab authenticated host in the current                        
  directory. Otherwise, `gitlab.com` will be used.                                                                      
  To override the GitLab hostname, use `--hostname`.

  replaced with values from the repository of the current directory:

  Methods: the default HTTP request method is `GET`, if no parameters are added,                                        
  and `POST` otherwise. Override the method with `--method`.                                                            
                                                                                                                        
  Pass one or more `--raw-field` values in `key=value` format to add                                                    
  JSON-encoded string parameters to the `POST` body.                                                                    
                                                                                                                        
  The `--field` flag behaves like `--raw-field` with magic type conversion based                                        
  on the format of the value:                                                                                           
                                                                                                                        
  - Literal values `true`, `false`, `null`, and integer numbers are converted to                                        
    appropriate JSON types.                                                                                             
  - Placeholder values `:namespace`, `:repo`, and `:branch` are populated with values                                   
    from the repository of the current directory.                                                                       
  - If the value starts with `@`, the rest of the value is interpreted as a                                             
    filename to read the value from. Pass `-` to read from standard input.                                              
                                                                                                                        
  For GraphQL requests, all fields other than `query` and `operationName` are                                           
  interpreted as GraphQL variables.                                                                                     
                                                                                                                        
  Raw request body can be passed from the outside via a file specified by `--input`.                                    
  Pass `-` to read from standard input. In this mode, parameters specified with                                         
  `--field` flags are serialized into URL query parameters.                                                             
                                                                                                                        
  In `--paginate` mode, all pages of results are requested sequentially until                                           
  no more pages of results remain. For GraphQL requests:                                                                
                                                                                                                        
  - The original query must accept an `$endCursor: String` variable.                                                    
  - The query must fetch the `pageInfo{ hasNextPage, endCursor }` set of fields from a collection.                      
                                                                                                                        
  The `--output` flag controls the output format:                                                                       
                                                                                                                        
  - `json` (default): Pretty-printed JSON. Arrays are output as a single JSON array.                                    
  - `ndjson`: Newline-delimited JSON (also known as JSONL or JSON Lines). Each array element                            
    or object is output on a separate line. This format is more memory-efficient for large datasets                     
    and works well with tools like `jq`. See https://github.com/ndjson/ndjson-spec and                                  
    https://jsonlines.org/ for format specifications.
