README

Excerpt

Gitlab

Agent-callable tools for GitLab, the DevOps platform for source code, merge requests, and CI/CD. The connector wraps the GitLab REST API v4 (with one GraphQL island — the Work Items surface — reached through POST /api/graphql), giving an agent the ability to read and drive projects, issues, merge requests, repository contents, and pipelines. It is centered on the merge-request review loop and repository authoring: read an MR and its diffs and discussions, comment or approve, commit file changes atomically, and run or inspect CI. It targets GitLab SaaS (gitlab.com) by default; the host is configurable for self-managed and GitLab Dedicated instances.

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
