GitLab DevOps Skill

Golden Rule

Never execute write operations (create, update, delete, merge) without explicit operator confirmation. All mutating actions — creating issues, merging MRs, triggering pipelines, deleting labels — require human-in-the-loop approval before invocation (Constitution XIV). Always observe current state before making changes (Constitution II: Read-Before-Write).

MCP Server

This skill uses tools provided by the gitlab-mcp server (@zereight/mcp-gitlab), a community MCP server with 98+ tools for GitLab operations. The server is spawned locally via npx -y @zereight/mcp-gitlab and communicates over stdio transport.
