communitystdiounknown

First gitlab mcp for you, building together

01Configuration

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "gitlab-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@zereight/mcp-gitlab@2.1.29"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Add this to cline_mcp_settings.json. Generated from the captured install method (npx); the mcpServers shape is shared across Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, and VS Code.
