Description

This is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for automating and managing GitLab Kanban board operations. It exposes tools to list tasks, create new tasks, update existing tasks, delete tasks, and add comments, enabling programmatic board manipulation. The project is implemented in TypeScript/Node.js and integrates with GitLab via a personal access token, communicating over stdio for use with MCP agents and tooling like the MCP Inspector.
