# GitLab MCP Server

> GitLab MCP Server — shou-nian-gitlab-mcp-server. Use this tool when you need to access GitLab projects and repositories in a read-only mode, solving version control and collaboration challenges by providing a secure interface to retrieve project data, files, and merge requests through MCP tools, with inputs including GitLab project URLs and outputs including project metadata and file contents. It is ideal for use cases requiring limited access to GitLab resources, such as auditing, reporting, or integration with other development tools. This enables seamless interaction with GitLab projects without modifying their contents.
