What it does
A community MCP server for GitLab, written in TypeScript and published on npm as @zereight/mcp-gitlab. It usually runs on your machine over stdio, using a GitLab personal access token or a local OAuth sign-in against gitlab.com or a self-managed instance, and it can also be deployed as a shared Streamable HTTP or SSE service with per-user tokens or an MCP OAuth flow. By default it exposes a core set of about 40 tools and lets the agent switch on further toolsets during a session.
