Do I need the GitLab CLI (glab) installed?

The skill prefers the glab MCP for data fetching, but it can seamlessly fall back to the standard `glab` CLI if the MCP is not configured.

Does this skill post comments to GitLab automatically?

No, the skill is designed to require explicit user confirmation before posting any notes or reviews to the GitLab merge request.

How does it determine which repository to review?

By default, it uses the current project name or the GitLab remote found in your local directory. If these are unavailable, it will prompt you for the specific namespace and project path.

What criteria does the AI use for the code review?

The skill analyzes the diff for logic correctness, security risks, naming conventions, architectural structure, test coverage, and documentation updates.

Collaboration Tools

Conducts comprehensive GitLab merge request reviews by analyzing diffs and providing structured feedback through glab integration.

This skill empowers Claude to act as an automated code reviewer within your GitLab workflow. It intelligently identifies the target repository and merge request, fetches the full code diff using either the glab MCP or CLI, and performs a deep analysis focusing on logic, security, style, and test coverage. After generating a structured review with prioritized findings (Blocking vs. Nits), it can optionally post the feedback directly to GitLab as an MR comment upon user confirmation, significantly streamlining the peer review process.
