Deprecated glab MCP server compatibility guidance. For new AI assistant integrations use the GitLab MCP Server (https://docs.gitlab.com/user/model_context_protocol/mcp_server/) instead. Use this skill only when maintaining or migrating existing glab mcp serve integrations. Triggers on deprecated glab MCP, Model Context Protocol, glab mcp serve migration.

Is this agent skill safe to install?

Gen Agent Trust Hubpass
This skill facilitates integration between AI assistants and GitLab using the Model Context Protocol (MCP) and the GitLab CLI tool. The main security consideration is that the skill processes external data from GitLab projects, which could potentially contain indirect instructions meant to influence the AI assistant.

What does this agent skill do?

glab mcp

Deprecation

glab mcp and glab mcp serve are deprecated. Upstream directs users to the GitLab MCP Server and collects feedback in work item 8618. Existing stdio behavior is documented below for compatibility; do not treat it as a recommended new integration. Help output may omit the runtime deprecation warning.

Overview

Capture key d43ccacec: checksum-verified macOS arm64 release binary, source commit d43ccacecb043b0c060dd13224cf993140db6c2b, binary archive SHA-256 04aad4d989d98cb030318e09359f02e0ba2637ede682ec0dee1f5974dedd44c1. Marked help preserves all renderer output except trailing spaces/tabs; unmarked blocks retain their stated older provenance.

Capture d43ccacec (key above).


  Manage Model Context Protocol server features for GitLab integration.

  The MCP server exposes GitLab features as tools for use by
  AI assistants (like Claude Code) to interact with GitLab projects, issues,
  merge requests, pipelines, and other resources.

  This feature is an experiment and is not ready for production use.
  It might be unstable or removed at any time.
  For more information, see
  https://docs.gitlab.com/policy/development_stages_support/.


  USAGE

    glab mcp <command> [--flags]

  EXAMPLES

    glab mcp serve

  COMMANDS

    serve      Start a MCP server with stdio transport. (EXPERIMENTAL)

  FLAGS

    -h --help  Show help for this command.

Quick start

glab mcp --help

Current behavior

Auto-enabled JSON output

glab mcp serve automatically enables JSON output format when running — no manual flag needed. This improves parsing reliability for AI assistants consuming the MCP server's tool responses.

Unannotated commands excluded

Commands that lack MCP annotations are not registered as MCP tools. This means only explicitly supported commands are exposed to AI assistants, reducing noise and improving reliability. If a GitLab operation you expect isn't available as an MCP tool, it may lack MCP annotations.

Inherited flags advertised

MCP tool schemas include visible inherited flags accepted from parent commands, such as --repo on project-scoped operations. Pass these through the tool's flags object using the schema's underscore-normalized names (for example, repo); do not assume a flag is unavailable merely because it is registered on a parent command.

Subcommands

See references/commands.md for full --help output.
