What problem does it solve?
This Skill replaces token-heavy GitLab MCP (Managed Code Package) functions with efficient bash scripts, dramatically reducing token usage and accelerating common GitLab Merge Request (MR) workflows. It simplifies interactions with GitLab, making code reviews and MR management faster and more cost-effective for AI agents.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Comprehensive MR Operations: Perform read (fetch comments, list MRs) and write (create, comment, inline comment, update MR metadata) operations.
- Significant Token Savings: Achieves 99.75% token savings (80k → 200 tokens) compared to GitLab MCP.
- Inline Code Review: Add comments directly to specific lines of code within an MR for precise feedback.
- Use Case: During a code review, automatically fetch all existing MR comments to avoid duplicate feedback, then post new inline comments directly to problematic code lines, and finally update the MR status.
Quick Start
Use the gitlab-scripts skill to fetch all comments for the Merge Request linked to Jira ticket INT-3877.
