Install in OpenClaw
/install gitlab-repos
Description
Work with GitLab projects, issues, merge requests, commits, branches, pipelines, and groups via the GitLab API. Use this skill when users want to list projec...
Usage Guidance
Before installing, understand that this enables a third-party ClawLink plugin and connects it to your GitLab account through OAuth. Use a least-privileged GitLab account or scopes where possible, review every preview before write actions, and be aware that archiving is a state-changing action despite one misleading read-only label.
Capability Assessment
Credentials
OAuth-backed GitLab access through ClawLink is proportionate for the integration, and the skill says access is scoped to the connected account.
Install Mechanism
Setup installs and enables the ClawLink plugin by package name and restarts the gateway; this is disclosed and purpose-aligned, but the artifact does not pin a reviewed version or digest.
Instruction Scope
The instructions repeatedly require explicit confirmation and preview before writes, but one table entry incorrectly describes archiving a project as read-only while marking it as Write.
Persistence & Privilege
The plugin allowlist change and ClawLink OAuth connection persist beyond a single chat, but the behavior is documented as part of setup.
Purpose & Capability
The skill’s GitLab read/write capabilities match its stated purpose, including project, issue, branch, member, status, and CI/CD operations.
How to Use
- Make sure OpenClaw is installed (local or Docker)
- Run the install command in chat:
/install gitlab-repos - After installation, invoke the skill by name or use
