What is the best way to prevent duplicate inline comments on GitLab MRs?▼

To prevent duplicate inline comments on GitLab MRs, this Skill applies deduplication logic to avoid repetitive feedback. It inspects existing discussions before generating inline feedback, ensuring that only new, unique code review comments are posted to the merge request.

Can I review GitLab merge requests using just the project IID instead of a full URL?▼

Yes, you can review GitLab merge requests using a project-scoped IID instead of a full URL. The Skill handles both full MR URLs and project-scoped IIDs as input to start the automated review process and analyze code diffs.

Do I need glab, hurl, and jq to analyze GitLab MR diffs?▼

Yes, you need glab, hurl, and jq installed to analyze GitLab MR diffs. These tools are required dependencies for fetching merge request metadata, inspecting code changes, and processing JSON responses to generate inline comments with appropriate token-based authentication.

Does automated GitLab MR review work for repositories owned by others?▼
