GitLab (official) (modelcontextprotocol) MCP Server

@modelcontextprotocol/server-gitlab npm v2025.4.25 Official

Published by Model Context Protocol — an official vendor package. A brand name in a package name proves nothing; this one is verified by npm scope ownership or publish provenance.

The official GitLab server: projects, issues and merge requests from an assistant.

A Why this grade threat 100 − adoption risk = 94/100

The grade answers one question — how safe is this server for you to adopt — so it is computed in two auditable stages. Nothing below is an opinion or an LLM's guess; every line is a real term the deterministic engine applied, and the same input always yields the same number.

1. Threat score — 100 − 0 = 100. What the published surface and source actually contain:

The deterministic scan raised no scored threat in the surface it inspected — the threat score stayed at 100. Capability observations and advisory notes are recorded but never lower it.

2. Client adoption risk — 100 − 6 = 94. Three small, subtract-only factors that reflect your risk in adopting it — a clean scan proves less on a powerful, unverified or barely-inspectable package, so the grade says so plainly:

PointsAdoption-risk factor
−6 capability blast radius (high) — client exposure if the model is manipulated

Capability observations and info notes are shown under Findings but never scored. Open any row's finding below for the file, line and evidence behind a deduction.

Findings 1

high Sensitive-source and external-sink co-existMTC-FLOW-004

Tools that read sensitive data ([get_file_contents]) and tools that can send data out ([create_issue]) are exposed together. An agent can move private data to the sink.

Evidence: sources [get_file_contents] → sinks [create_issue]

Fix: Keep secret-reading and egress capabilities on separate, separately-approved servers.

Location: flow get_file_contents → create_issue

Tools 9

Each tool and what it can reach — statically extracted from the published source.

  • create_issuenetwork egress
  • get_file_contentsreads sensitive data
  • create_branchno sensitive capability
  • create_merge_requestno sensitive capability
  • create_or_update_fileno sensitive capability
  • create_repositoryno sensitive capability
  • fork_repositoryno sensitive capability
  • push_filesno sensitive capability
  • search_repositoriesno sensitive capability

Toxic flows 1

Cross-tool combinations that form a data-exfiltration primitive (untrusted input → sensitive source → external sink).

Versions 1

Scan history per published version. The engine is deterministic — the same version always yields the same score, so a changed score means the package itself changed.

Embed this score

Show this server's live Trust Score in your README, docs or website. The badge is served straight from the registry and updates automatically after every rescan — no API key needed. It links back to this page, so anyone who sees the grade can also read the findings behind it instead of taking a number on faith.
