Configuration

Required Settings

You need to configure the following settings in your settings.json:

{
  "context_servers": {
    "mcp-server-gitlab": {
      "settings": {
        "gitlab_personal_access_token": "YOUR_TOKEN"
      }
    }
  }
}

Optional Settings

For self-hosted GitLab instances, you can specify a custom API URL:

{
  "context_servers": {
    "mcp-server-gitlab": {
      "settings": {
        "gitlab_personal_access_token": "YOUR_TOKEN",
        "gitlab_api_url": "https://your-gitlab-instance.com/api/v4"
      }
    }
  }
}

Agent Mode Configuration

If you're using Zed's agent mode, you need to enable this context server for your assistant:

1. Open Zed's Agent settings
2. Enable the GitLab MCP server. If you see that the status of the tool is a red dot, make sure you added your gitlab_personal_access_token in settings.json.
3. Enable the GitLab MCP Server in the active assistant profile. In the chat section, click on the Write | Ask button, then click on tools, then enable the GitLab MCP server.

Personal Access Token

To create a GitLab Personal Access Token:

1. Go to GitLab User Settings > Access Tokens
2. Select the required scopes:
   • api for full API access

3. Create the token and save it securely
4. Add the token to your Zed settings as shown above
