How does the skill identify which GitLab project to use?

It first looks for a project ID in `.teamcraft/project.md`, then checks your git remote configuration. If neither is found, it uses the GitLab API to list available projects for you to choose from.

Does this skill automatically approve or merge code?

No. Under the skill's hard constraints, every consequential action such as approving, merging, or requesting changes requires an explicit instruction and confirmation from the human reviewer.

Does it support GitLab pipeline status checks?

Yes. Before suggesting a merge, the skill fetches the MR details including the current pipeline status to ensure you don't merge failing code.

Can I see the code changes in my local IDE while using this skill?

Yes. The skill can detect your current branch and offer to check out the MR's source branch locally so you can view the code in your preferred editor alongside Claude's analysis.

Can I reply to existing comments on a merge request?

Yes. The skill fetches all existing discussion threads and notes, allowing you to read the full context, post new replies, or resolve threads directly through Claude.

Collaboration Tools

Conducts comprehensive GitLab merge request reviews and manages the full MR lifecycle directly from the command line.

The GitLab MR Review skill enables developers to perform high-context code reviews without switching to a web browser. By integrating GitLab's API with local git context, Claude can analyze diffs, summarize changes against project conventions, and fetch linked issues or pipeline statuses. It allows users to engage with discussion threads, leave inline comments, and execute critical actions like approving or merging, all while maintaining the ability to check out the source branch locally for deeper inspection in an IDE.
