GitLab CI/CD MCP — pipelines, jobs, schedules, MRs, files. Any GitLab (SaaS or self-hosted).

What this server is able to do. For an MCP server this is often the job itself — a terminal server runs commands because that is what it is for. Listed so you know what you are plugging in, not as an accusation.
ENV GITLAB_TOKEN=""
Is this your server and something here is wrong? Tell us — corrections are free and do not require a plan.
We found places where it runs commands, builds paths or queries from values it is given. None of that is a flaw by itself — it becomes one when the code changes, and code changes quietly between releases. We re-read it on every one.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start:
GITLAB_URL (GitLab instance URL (e.g. https://gitlab.com or https://gitlab.example.com)), GITLAB_TOKEN (GitLab Personal Access Token with 'api' scope), GITLAB_PROJECT_PATH (Default project path (e.g. my-org/my-repo); can be overridden per call), GITLAB_SSL_VERIFY (Verify SSL certificates (true/false). Set to 'false' for self-hosted GitLab with self-signed certs.).
The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.
