Routing Rules

Rule 1: Explicit Resource Type

Route based on the GitLab resource being worked with:

| Keywords | Route to | |----------|----------| | MR, merge request, pull request, review, approve, merge | gitlab-mr | | issue, bug, ticket, task, feature request | gitlab-issue | | CI, CD, pipeline, build, job, deploy, artifacts | gitlab-ci | | repo, repository, project, clone, fork | gitlab-repo | | release, tag, version, changelog | gitlab-release | | label, tag (for issues/MRs) | gitlab-label | | milestone, sprint, iteration | gitlab-milestone | | variable, secret, env, CI variable | gitlab-variable | | group, team, organization, members, namespace | gitlab-group | | search, find, query (global/group/project) | gitlab-search | | protect branch, branch protection, access rules | gitlab-protected-branch | | webhook, hook, notification callback, integration | gitlab-webhook | | file, blob, content, raw (repository files) | gitlab-file | | wiki, documentation page | gitlab-wiki | | discussion, thread, comment, note, reply | gitlab-discussion | | badge, status badge, coverage badge | gitlab-badge | | container, registry, docker, image, tag (container) | gitlab-container | | vulnerability, security, scan, CVE, SAST, DAST | gitlab-vulnerability |

Rule 2: Common Workflows

| Workflow | Skills Involved | |----------|-----------------| | Code review | gitlab-mr (checkout, review, approve, merge) | | Bug tracking | gitlab-issue (create, assign, close) | | Deployment | gitlab-ci (run, status, artifacts) | | Release process | gitlab-release + gitlab-ci | | Project setup | gitlab-repo (create, clone) |

Rule 3: Multi-Step Operations

For complex workflows that span multiple skills, coordinate them:

Example: "Release version 1.2.0"
1. gitlab-mr: Ensure all MRs are merged
2. gitlab-ci: Verify pipeline passes
3. gitlab-release: Create release with changelog

Connection Verification

Before any operation, verify GitLab is configured:

glab auth status

If not authenticated:

glab auth login

Check current repository context:

glab repo view

Common glab Commands Quick Reference

# Authentication
glab auth login              # Interactive login
glab auth status             # Check auth status

# Merge Requests
glab mr list                 # List MRs
glab mr create               # Create MR
glab mr view             # View MR details
glab mr checkout         # Checkout MR branch
glab mr merge            # Merge MR

# Issues
glab issue list              # List issues
glab issue create            # Create issue
glab issue view          # View issue
glab issue close         # Close issue

# CI/CD
glab ci status               # Current pipeline status
glab ci view                 # Interactive pipeline view
glab ci run                  # Trigger pipeline
glab ci artifact             # Download artifacts

# Repository
glab repo clone        # Clone repository
glab repo fork         # Fork repository
glab repo view               # View repo info

Disambiguation

When request is ambiguous, ask for clarification:

| Ambiguous Request | Clarifying Question | |-------------------|---------------------| | "Show me the status" | "Do you want CI pipeline status (glab ci status) or MR status (glab mr list)?" | | "Create a new one" | "What would you like to create? An issue, MR, or repository?" | | "List everything" | "What would you like to list? MRs, issues, pipelines, or repos?" |
