FAQ from GitLab MCP Server

What GitLab Personal Access Token scopes are required?

The api scope is needed for full API access. For read‑only operations, use read_api, read_repository, and write_repository for repository operations.

Can I use this server with a self-hosted GitLab instance?

Yes, set the GITLAB_API_URL environment variable to your self-hosted GitLab API base URL (e.g., https://gitlab.example.com/api/v4).

Does the server require any runtime dependencies?

It can be run via Docker (no local runtime needed) or via npx, which requires Node.js to be installed.

Where does data reside when using this server?

All operations interact with the GitLab API; no local storage is used. Data lives on your GitLab instance (cloud or self-hosted).

How does the server authenticate with GitLab?

Authentication is handled via a GitLab Personal Access Token provided through the GITLAB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN environment variable.
