Custom GitLab MCP Server

A custom implementation of the GitLab MCP (Model Context Protocol) server for integration with Claude and other MCP-compliant AI assistants.

Overview

This MCP server provides seamless integration with GitLab repositories, allowing AI assistants to:

  • Search GitLab repositories
  • Fetch file contents
  • Create or update files
  • Push multiple files in a single commit
  • Create issues and merge requests
  • Fork repositories
  • Create branches

Fixed Implementation

This custom implementation fixes issues with schema validation that were present in the standard GitLab MCP server implementation, specifically for the search_repositories tool.

Installation

  1. Clone this repository
  2. Install dependencies:
    npm install
    
  3. Configure in your Claude settings file or Claude Desktop config file:
    {
      "mcpServers": {
        "github.com/modelcontextprotocol/servers/tree/main/src/gitlab": {
          "command": "node",
          "args": [
            "/path/to/custom-gitlab-server/index.js"
          ],
          "env": {
            "GITLAB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN": "your-gitlab-token",
            "GITLAB_API_URL": "https://your-gitlab-instance/api/v4"
          }
        }
      }
    }
    

Prerequisites

  • Node.js (v14 or higher)
  • GitLab Personal Access Token with appropriate scopes:
    • api for full API access
    • read_api for read-only access
    • read_repository and write_repository for repository operations
