Gitlab Mr

Handles GitLab merge request operations through the glab CLI, covering everything from listing and viewing MRs to creating, approving, and merging them. It's designed to trigger whenever you mention merge requests, MRs, or pull requests, with clear risk levels marked for each operation (merging and deleting get the double warning symbols). The skill includes practical workflows like the review-and-approve cycle and creating draft MRs, plus it knows when to bail out and suggest the bulk operations skill instead. The command reference is thorough with all the flags you'd actually use, like filtering by reviewer or setting auto-merge when pipelines pass.
