How to connect GitLab Documentation MCP Server
GitLab Documentation MCP Server runs locally from a container image in an OCI registry such as Docker Hub or GitHub Container Registry: docker.io/nunolima/gitlab-docs-mcp:18.7. It speaks MCP over stdio, so the client starts it as a program and talks to it through standard input and output. It needs Docker or another OCI container runtime; started with docker run — the usual command is docker run -i --rm docker.io/nunolima/gitlab-docs-mcp:18.7.
In the mcpServers JSON format that many desktop and editor MCP clients read, the entry looks like this (placeholders in angle brackets):
{
"mcpServers": {
"gitlab-docs-mcp": {
"command": "docker",
"args": [
"run",
"-i",
"--rm",
"docker.io/nunolima/gitlab-docs-mcp:18.7"
]
}
}
}Derived from the registry entry, not tested here. What the server does, and on what terms, is set by its publisher; check its repository or website before giving it access to your accounts or files. How to add an MCP server to an assistant · Before you connect
