It runs as a single static binary or a container on Windows, Linux, and macOS.

FAQ from Gitlab MCP Server

What token is required to use Gitlab MCP Server?

A GitLab Personal Access Token with the api scope is needed. The token is passed via the GITLAB_TOKEN environment variable.

How do I connect to a self-managed GitLab instance?

Set the GITLAB_URL environment variable to your instance URL. For self-signed certificates, also set GITLAB_SKIP_TLS_VERIFY=true.

What is the default tool surface and why?

The default dynamic surface exposes only 2 tools (gitlab_find_action and gitlab_execute_action) while still reaching the full catalog. This keeps token consumption low and fits any client’s context window.

Can I run Gitlab MCP Server in read-only mode?

Yes, read-only mode is a built-in safety feature. It prevents mutations, allowing safe exploration of GitLab data.

Does Gitlab MCP Server support HTTP/remote deployments?

Yes, there is an HTTP server mode for shared, long-running deployments, documented in the HTTP Server Mode guide.
