Instructions

Step 1: Validate Environment

# Check glab is installed
glab --version

# Check glab is authenticated
glab auth status

If not installed, report: "Install glab CLI: https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cli" If not authenticated, report: "Run: glab auth login"

Step 2: Parse and Execute

Parse `$ARGUMENTS` and pass directly to `glab`:

glab $ARGUMENTS

Step 3: Report Result

Show `glab` output directly to user.

Examples

# View MR status
/gitlab-cli mr status

# View MR in browser
/gitlab-cli mr view --web

# List open MRs
/gitlab-cli mr list

# Merge current MR
/gitlab-cli mr merge

# List issues

# Create issue interactively
/gitlab-cli issue create

# View repo info
