01 · WHAT THE AGENT CAN DO

Actions

Every capability is a discrete, logged action the agent calls by name — scoped to what you authorize and recorded in the run trace.

Add Spent TimeGITLAB_ADD_SPENT_TIME
Adds spent time to a GitLab issue for time tracking purposes. This action logs time against an issue, accumulating with any previously logged time. Use this action when you need to record time spent working on an issue, track billable hours, or maintain project time logs.
Approve Merge RequestGITLAB_APPROVE_MERGE_REQUEST
Approves a merge request in a GitLab project. Use this action when you need to record an approval from the authenticated user on a specific merge request. The authenticated user must be an eligible approver with appropriate permissions. Note that this action is idempotent — calling it multiple times on the same merge request will not create duplicate approvals.

Tool to archive a project. Use when you need to mark a project read-only after finishing active development. Call after confirming no further changes are required.
Cancel JobGITLAB_CANCEL_JOB
Cancel a GitLab CI/CD job within a specified project. This action stops a running or pending job and is irreversible. Use this action when you need to cancel a job that is running, pending, or stuck in a canceling state. The optional force parameter allows cancellation of jobs that are in a canceling state. Once canceled, the job cannot be restarted.
Cancel PipelineGITLAB_CANCEL_PIPELINE
Tool to cancel a running pipeline in a GitLab project. Use this action when you need to stop a CI/CD pipeline that is currently executing or queued. Note that the API returns success (200) regardless of the pipeline's state, so this action can be safely called even if the pipeline has already finished or been canceled.

Creates a new commit with multiple file operations in a GitLab project. This action supports batch operations including creating, updating, deleting, moving files, and changing file permissions in a single atomic commit.
