Prerequisites

• The GitLab API token and project details are stored in the user's memory at ~/.claude/projects/-Users-biedronne-Documents-Work-DS2-synerise-design/memory/gitlab-credentials.md
• GitLab URL: https://gitlab.synerise.com
• Project ID: 1171
• API Token: Read from the credentials file above (use PRIVATE-TOKEN header)

Workflow

Step 1 — Push to origin

Push the current branch to origin:

bash
1git push -u origin HEAD

If the push fails (e.g., rejected), inform the user and stop.

Step 2 — Check for existing MR

Check if an MR already exists for the current branch:

bash
1BRANCH=$(git branch --show-current)

GET https://gitlab.synerise.com/api/v4/projects/1171/merge_requests?source_branch={BRANCH}&state=opened

If an MR already exists, skip to Step 4 (pipeline monitoring). Print the existing MR URL for the user.

Step 3 — Create the MR

If no MR exists, ask the user for a Jira task reference (e.g., STOR-1884). Use the AskUserQuestion tool — suggest a task reference extracted from the branch name if one is present.

Then analyze the changes on the branch to generate a summary of main changes. Use:

bash
1git log origin/master..HEAD --oneline
2git diff origin/master..HEAD --stat

Create the MR via the GitLab API:

POST https://gitlab.synerise.com/api/v4/projects/1171/merge_requests

Body:

• source_branch: current branch name
• target_branch: master
• title: Use the conventional commit format from the latest commit message (or branch name)
• description: Use this template, filling in the changes and task reference:

Changes:
- <list main changes based on commits and diff>

Resolves task:
- <TASK_REFERENCE>

• squash: true
• remove_source_branch: true

Print the created MR URL for the user.

Step 4 — Monitor the pipeline

After push (whether MR was created or already existed), find the pipeline for the latest commit on the branch:

GET https://gitlab.synerise.com/api/v4/projects/1171/pipelines?ref={BRANCH}&order_by=id&sort=desc&per_page=1

Then poll the pipeline status every 60 seconds:

GET https://gitlab.synerise.com/api/v4/projects/1171/pipelines/{pipeline_id}

Use the Bash tool with run_in_background and a monitoring script that:

1. Checks pipeline status every 60 seconds
2. Stops when status is success, failed, canceled, or skipped
3. Outputs the final status

While waiting, inform the user that monitoring is in progress and they'll be notified when done.

When the pipeline finishes, fetch the jobs to give a summary:

GET https://gitlab.synerise.com/api/v4/projects/1171/pipelines/{pipeline_id}/jobs

Notify the user with:

• Pipeline status (success/failed)
• Duration
• If failed: which job(s) failed and a link to the job log
