What features does GitLab Code Review offer?

It provides features like fetching merge request details (diffs, commits, comments), analyzing changes to specific files, comparing branches, adding comments, and managing approvals.

What if I encounter issues during setup?

First, ensure your GitLab token has the necessary permissions, your `.env` file settings are correct, and your MCP configuration paths are accurate. You can also enable debug mode by setting `LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG` in your `.env` file.

What is GitLab Code Review?

GitLab Code Review is a tool that integrates AI assistants with GitLab merge requests. It allows you to use tools like Claude to analyze code changes, provide feedback, and improve the review process.

What prerequisites are needed to use GitLab Code Review?

You need Python 3.10 or higher, a GitLab personal access token with `api` and `read_api` scopes, and either Cursor IDE or Claude Desktop App for MCP integration.

How do I integrate GitLab Code Review with Cursor IDE or Claude?

You need to configure the MCP server by adding a specific configuration block to your Cursor IDE's `mcp.json` file or in the Claude Desktop App settings under 'Advanced' → 'MCP Configuration'. The configuration includes paths to your cloned repository and Python executable within the virtual environment.
