Line 23 in ac20f05
Store a real ignore pattern for saved tokens
The new instances.json ignore entry is NUL/UTF-16 encoded instead of a normal text pattern; I verified git check-ignore -v instances.json returns no match. Since the new instance tools write access tokens to instances.json, this leaves the generated credential file trackable and easy to commit accidentally despite the feature depending on it being gitignored.

Thanks for the multi-instance work — stdio switching and fine-grained glpat- header handling are useful additions.
A few items still block merge (beyond the existing Codex threads):
Blocking
- Streamable HTTP auth regression —
validateConfigurationnow warns instead of erroring when Streamable HTTP runs with a server-side PAT/JOB token and no MCP-layer auth. This repo fails closed on that combination; please restore theerrors.pushguard. - Remote auth boundary — in
REMOTE_AUTHORIZATION/GITLAB_MCP_OAUTHmode,gitlab_switch_instance({ alias })can overwrite the caller session with credentials from server-sideinstances.json, letting a remote caller act with a broader token than they supplied. Please disable alias/server-credential switching in remote modes, or restrict these management tools to stdio-only. - Still open from Codex on HEAD —
dotenvis only indevDependencieswhileindex.tsimportsdotenv/configat runtime.
Before merge
- Rebase onto
main(conflicts expected inindex.ts,package.json,schemas.ts,tools/registry.ts). - Add regression tests for instance switching and header selection.
- Use neutral default aliases and consolidate the duplicate migration paths (
twinbyvsdefault).
Happy to take another look once these are addressed.

Inline comments:
In @.gitignore:
- Around line 23-24: The .gitignore file currently ignores instances.json (line
24) but does not ignore the test fixture configuration file instances.test.json
that tests create at the repository root. Add instances.test.json as a new entry
in the .gitignore file near the existing instances.json entry to prevent test
artifacts from being accidentally staged.
In `@index.ts`:
- Around line 9057-9062: The AuthData object construction at the header
assignment uses inconsistent token-header mapping logic compared to the
buildAuthHeaders() function. Instead of the current inline ternary condition
that forces "Private-Token" whenever GITLAB_MCP_OAUTH is false, extract and
reuse the same token-header determination logic from buildAuthHeaders() to
ensure non-glpat bearer tokens are correctly sent as "Authorization: Bearer ..."
headers after a gitlab_switch_instance call. Replace the hardcoded ternary
expression with a call to the same header-selection logic used in the normal
auth path.
- Around line 12941-12961: When only GITLAB_CLOUD_TOKEN is set and
GITLAB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN is unset, the cloud instance is added but the
active_alias remains set to "default" (which doesn't exist), causing
validateConfiguration() to fail. After the configManager.addInstance("cloud",
...) call, check if the default instance was not created (meaning
GITLAB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN was falsy), and if so, call
configManager.setActiveAlias("cloud") to make the migrated cloud instance the
active one.
- Around line 8974-9001: The gitlab_add_instance and gitlab_select_instance
handlers are mutating a process-global instances.json configuration store
without access control, allowing any authenticated remote/OAuth client to
persist arbitrary tokens and change default aliases across all sessions. Add the
same remote/OAuth mode restriction guard that is used for alias-based switching
at the start of both the gitlab_add_instance case block and the
gitlab_select_instance case block. Check if the request is coming from a remote
or OAuth authenticated context and throw an appropriate error or return an error
response if such access is detected, preventing these configuration mutations
from executing in untrusted remote environments.
In `@schemas.ts`:
- Around line 3360-3369: The alias fields in both AddInstanceSchema (at line
3361) and SelectInstanceSchema (at line 3368) currently accept any arbitrary
string without validation, which creates a prototype-pollution vulnerability if
these aliases are used as object keys in config-manager.ts. Add validation to
the alias string fields using a refine or superRefine method to reject dangerous
keys such as __proto__, constructor, and prototype, ensuring that only safe
alias values are accepted.
In `@test/test-instance-management.test.ts`:
- Line 25: Replace all PAT token literals that match the glpat-... pattern with
concatenated string constructions to avoid triggering secret scanners, even
though these are fake test values. Instead of using full literals like
"glpat-master-token", break them into parts (for example, by concatenating
"glpat-" with "master-token" or building them from separate string fragments) at
each location where GITLAB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN, GITHUB_TOKEN, or similar
PAT-shaped environment variables are set in test fixtures. This preserves test
coverage while eliminating the scanner-triggering pattern from the committed
code.
In `@tools/registry.ts`:
- Around line 224-238: The gitlab_add_instance and gitlab_select_instance tools
are exposed unconditionally in the registry, allowing remote clients to mutate
shared credentials and configuration in remote/OAuth deployments. Wrap the
registry entries for these two tools (gitlab_add_instance and
gitlab_select_instance) in a conditional check that prevents them from being
added to the registry when remote authorization modes are active. Apply this
conditional gating at both locations where these tools are registered in the
registry to ensure they are hidden from remote clients in OAuth/remote
deployment scenarios.
In `@utils/config-manager.ts`:
- Around line 60-66: The save() method in utils/config-manager.ts currently
catches and silently logs write errors without propagating the failure to
callers, allowing downstream tool handlers to report success even when
persistence fails. Modify the save() method to make persistence failures
observable by either throwing the caught error or returning a status boolean
indicating success or failure, then update all callers of save() (such as those
in addInstance and selectInstance) to check for and handle persistence failures
by failing their respective tool calls when save() indicates an error occurred.
- Around line 43-45: The migration logic in the instances assignment
unconditionally overwrites data.instances['default'] with
data.instances['twinby'], which silently discards any existing default
credentials. Add a condition to check if data.instances['default'] does not
already exist before assigning the twinby value to it, ensuring that any
pre-existing default entry is preserved and only used as a fallback when default
is missing.

9028-9065: The cloud fallback still reintroduces the remote credential-escalation path.Blocking
args.aliasis not sufficient here. In remote/OAuth mode,gitlab_switch_instance({})or any partially filled payload still falls back toconfigManager.getInstance("cloud")/GITLAB_CLOUD_TOKENand writes that server-side credential intoauthBySession[sessionId].
992-1004: Persisted instances also need the Streamable HTTP fail-closed guard.
hasPersistentInstancenow makes a saved server-side PAT a valid auth source, but theSTREAMABLE_HTTPsafety check still only looks at envGITLAB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN/GITLAB_JOB_TOKEN. That leaves the same shared-credential-over-the-network path that the earlier startup guard was meant to block.

Thanks for tightening the alias switching path. I think there are still a few ways for remote/OAuth clients to reach server-side credentials or mutate shared config, though.
Could we also block gitlab_add_instance and gitlab_select_instance when REMOTE_AUTHORIZATION or GITLAB_MCP_OAUTH is enabled? Right now a remote caller can still write to instances.json or change the process-wide active alias.
Also, gitlab_switch_instance({}) still falls back to the saved cloud instance / GITLAB_CLOUD_TOKEN, even in remote/OAuth mode. That seems to bypass the alias guard. In those modes I think we should require explicit apiUrl + token and avoid loading server-side saved/env credentials.
One more related case: the Streamable HTTP startup guard only checks env PAT/job tokens. If auth comes from a saved persistent instance, the server can still start without remote auth/OAuth. I think hasPersistentInstance should be included in that fail-closed check too.
Requesting changes because this still leaves server-side credentials reachable in remote/OAuth deployments. The alias path is blocked, but add/select and the empty switch fallback still cross the same trust boundary.

In `@test/dynamic-api-url-allowlist.test.ts`:
- Around line 102-127: The test is asserting that client.connect() fails by
checking connected === false, but the allowlist validation actually occurs when
callTool resolves the dynamic API URL, not during connection. Remove the
connected variable and the assertion that connected === false, and instead
explicitly verify that the callTool method call throws an error by tracking
whether an exception was caught in the try-catch block. This ensures the test
validates that the tool call fails due to the untrusted host, not the connection
itself.
In `@test/oauth-tests.ts`:
- Around line 277-279: The writeScript function directly embeds the output
parameter into a single-quoted shell string without escaping special characters.
If the output contains a single quote, it will break the shell script syntax.
Before writing to the file, escape any single quote characters in the output
parameter by replacing them with the appropriate shell escape sequence, so that
arbitrary token values can be safely embedded in the shell string.
In `@test/test-ci-catalog.ts`:
- Around line 16-23: The environment configuration in the spawned MCP process
setup is missing the GITLAB_TEST_MODE variable, which allows credential
migration to persist instance data to disk and creates cross-test state leakage.
Add GITLAB_TEST_MODE with the appropriate value to the env object alongside the
other configuration flags (SSE, STREAMABLE_HTTP, REMOTE_AUTHORIZATION,
GITLAB_MCP_OAUTH) to enable proper test-mode isolation.
In `@test/test-ci-lint.ts`:
- Around line 21-24: Add the GITLAB_TEST_MODE environment variable to both
spawned server environment blocks in the test file. In both locations where you
find the environment variable configuration blocks (containing SSE,
STREAMABLE_HTTP, REMOTE_AUTHORIZATION, and GITLAB_MCP_OAUTH), add
GITLAB_TEST_MODE set to an appropriate test mode value to prevent token-derived
state from persisting across tests.
In `@test/test-ci-variables.ts`:
- Around line 52-59: The env blocks in this file (at the shown location and also
at lines 386-389 and 421-429) are disabling various transports and auth modes
but are missing the GITLAB_TEST_MODE environment variable, which causes
credential migration to persist instances and create test state pollution across
runs. Add GITLAB_TEST_MODE set to "true" to all three env blocks that currently
disable SSE, STREAMABLE_HTTP, REMOTE_AUTHORIZATION, and GITLAB_MCP_OAUTH to
ensure test mode is properly enforced for all spawned server invocations.
In `@test/test-create-repository.ts`:
- Around line 24-31: The test helper is missing the GITLAB_TEST_MODE environment
variable, which allows token-backed configuration to persist between test runs.
Add GITLAB_TEST_MODE: "true" to the env object in the createRepository helper
alongside the other environment variables like SSE, STREAMABLE_HTTP,
REMOTE_AUTHORIZATION, and GITLAB_MCP_OAUTH that are being set to false.
In `@test/test-list-issues.ts`:
- Around line 13-20: The spawned process environment configuration in
test-list-issues.ts is missing the GITLAB_TEST_MODE environment variable, which
allows the process to create persistent on-disk token and config artifacts that
cause flaky test behavior. Add GITLAB_TEST_MODE set to "true" in the environment
object alongside the other disabled feature flags (GITLAB_READ_ONLY_MODE, SSE,
STREAMABLE_HTTP, REMOTE_AUTHORIZATION, GITLAB_MCP_OAUTH) to ensure test-mode
persistence gating is enabled for this spawned process.
In `@test/test-mr-file-diffs.ts`:
- Around line 18-22: The test suite has inconsistent environment configurations
between the two helper functions. The callListMergeRequestChangedFiles helper
has explicit environment variable overrides disabling SSE, STREAMABLE_HTTP,
REMOTE_AUTHORIZATION, and GITLAB_MCP_OAUTH, but callGetMergeRequestFileDiff is
missing these same overrides and inherits ambient flags instead. To fix this,
add the same environment variable overrides (SSE: 'false', STREAMABLE_HTTP:
'false', REMOTE_AUTHORIZATION: 'false', GITLAB_MCP_OAUTH: 'false') to the
callGetMergeRequestFileDiff helper call to ensure both helpers operate under the
same auth and transport mode configuration.
In `@test/test-remote-downloads.ts`:
- Around line 129-130: Setting MCP_SERVER_URL to an empty string in the test
environment variables does not properly test the unset path because an empty
string still leaves the environment variable present. To correctly exercise the
fallback behavior when the variable is unset, remove the MCP_SERVER_URL key
entirely from both launchServer env blocks (around lines 129-130 and 321-322)
rather than setting it to an empty string. This ensures the env var is truly
absent during testing.
In `@test/test-todos.ts`:
- Around line 19-22: The environment variable blocks that set SSE,
STREAMABLE_HTTP, REMOTE_AUTHORIZATION, and GITLAB_MCP_OAUTH flags do not
explicitly set GITLAB_TEST_MODE, causing the spawned processes to rely on
inherited test mode configuration which can lead to persistent state leakage.
Add GITLAB_TEST_MODE with value "true" to the environment configuration objects
in both locations (at the first occurrence around line 19-22 and the second
occurrence around line 70-73) to ensure test mode is forcefully enabled and
prevent instances.json persistence and cross-test interference.
In `@test/test-update-project.ts`:
- Around line 43-50: The code contains unguarded JSON.parse calls that can throw
uncaught exceptions if the input is malformed or invalid. Specifically, the
JSON.parse call on line and the JSON.parse call on content variable are
vulnerable. Wrap both JSON.parse operations in try-catch blocks to catch any
parsing errors and pass them to reject instead of allowing them to propagate as
uncaught exceptions, ensuring proper error handling and test reliability.
In `@test/test-upload-markdown.ts`:
- Around line 30-37: The env object in the spawned server configuration is
missing the GITLAB_TEST_MODE environment variable. Add GITLAB_TEST_MODE
alongside the other environment variables (SSE, STREAMABLE_HTTP,
REMOTE_AUTHORIZATION, GITLAB_MCP_OAUTH) in the env object to ensure test mode is
properly configured for the spawned server instance.

Inline comments:
In `@test/dynamic-api-url-allowlist.test.ts`:
- Around line 102-127: The test is asserting that client.connect() fails by
checking connected === false, but the allowlist validation actually occurs when
callTool resolves the dynamic API URL, not during connection. Remove the
connected variable and the assertion that connected === false, and instead
explicitly verify that the callTool method call throws an error by tracking
whether an exception was caught in the try-catch block. This ensures the test
validates that the tool call fails due to the untrusted host, not the connection
itself.
In `@test/oauth-tests.ts`:
- Around line 277-279: The writeScript function directly embeds the output
parameter into a single-quoted shell string without escaping special characters.
If the output contains a single quote, it will break the shell script syntax.
Before writing to the file, escape any single quote characters in the output
parameter by replacing them with the appropriate shell escape sequence, so that
arbitrary token values can be safely embedded in the shell string.
In `@test/test-ci-catalog.ts`:
- Around line 16-23: The environment configuration in the spawned MCP process
setup is missing the GITLAB_TEST_MODE variable, which allows credential
migration to persist instance data to disk and creates cross-test state leakage.
Add GITLAB_TEST_MODE with the appropriate value to the env object alongside the
other configuration flags (SSE, STREAMABLE_HTTP, REMOTE_AUTHORIZATION,
GITLAB_MCP_OAUTH) to enable proper test-mode isolation.
In `@test/test-ci-lint.ts`:
- Around line 21-24: Add the GITLAB_TEST_MODE environment variable to both
spawned server environment blocks in the test file. In both locations where you
find the environment variable configuration blocks (containing SSE,
STREAMABLE_HTTP, REMOTE_AUTHORIZATION, and GITLAB_MCP_OAUTH), add
GITLAB_TEST_MODE set to an appropriate test mode value to prevent token-derived
state from persisting across tests.
In `@test/test-ci-variables.ts`:
- Around line 52-59: The env blocks in this file (at the shown location and also
at lines 386-389 and 421-429) are disabling various transports and auth modes
but are missing the GITLAB_TEST_MODE environment variable, which causes
credential migration to persist instances and create test state pollution across
runs. Add GITLAB_TEST_MODE set to "true" to all three env blocks that currently
disable SSE, STREAMABLE_HTTP, REMOTE_AUTHORIZATION, and GITLAB_MCP_OAUTH to
ensure test mode is properly enforced for all spawned server invocations.
In `@test/test-create-repository.ts`:
- Around line 24-31: The test helper is missing the GITLAB_TEST_MODE environment
variable, which allows token-backed configuration to persist between test runs.
Add GITLAB_TEST_MODE: "true" to the env object in the createRepository helper
alongside the other environment variables like SSE, STREAMABLE_HTTP,
REMOTE_AUTHORIZATION, and GITLAB_MCP_OAUTH that are being set to false.
In `@test/test-list-issues.ts`:
- Around line 13-20: The spawned process environment configuration in
test-list-issues.ts is missing the GITLAB_TEST_MODE environment variable, which
allows the process to create persistent on-disk token and config artifacts that
cause flaky test behavior. Add GITLAB_TEST_MODE set to "true" in the environment
object alongside the other disabled feature flags (GITLAB_READ_ONLY_MODE, SSE,
STREAMABLE_HTTP, REMOTE_AUTHORIZATION, GITLAB_MCP_OAUTH) to ensure test-mode
persistence gating is enabled for this spawned process.
In `@test/test-mr-file-diffs.ts`:
- Around line 18-22: The test suite has inconsistent environment configurations
between the two helper functions. The callListMergeRequestChangedFiles helper
has explicit environment variable overrides disabling SSE, STREAMABLE_HTTP,
REMOTE_AUTHORIZATION, and GITLAB_MCP_OAUTH, but callGetMergeRequestFileDiff is
missing these same overrides and inherits ambient flags instead. To fix this,
add the same environment variable overrides (SSE: 'false', STREAMABLE_HTTP:
'false', REMOTE_AUTHORIZATION: 'false', GITLAB_MCP_OAUTH: 'false') to the
callGetMergeRequestFileDiff helper call to ensure both helpers operate under the
same auth and transport mode configuration.
In `@test/test-remote-downloads.ts`:
- Around line 129-130: Setting MCP_SERVER_URL to an empty string in the test
environment variables does not properly test the unset path because an empty
string still leaves the environment variable present. To correctly exercise the
fallback behavior when the variable is unset, remove the MCP_SERVER_URL key
entirely from both launchServer env blocks (around lines 129-130 and 321-322)
rather than setting it to an empty string. This ensures the env var is truly
absent during testing.
In `@test/test-todos.ts`:
- Around line 19-22: The environment variable blocks that set SSE,
STREAMABLE_HTTP, REMOTE_AUTHORIZATION, and GITLAB_MCP_OAUTH flags do not
explicitly set GITLAB_TEST_MODE, causing the spawned processes to rely on
inherited test mode configuration which can lead to persistent state leakage.
Add GITLAB_TEST_MODE with value "true" to the environment configuration objects
in both locations (at the first occurrence around line 19-22 and the second
occurrence around line 70-73) to ensure test mode is forcefully enabled and
prevent instances.json persistence and cross-test interference.
In `@test/test-update-project.ts`:
- Around line 43-50: The code contains unguarded JSON.parse calls that can throw
uncaught exceptions if the input is malformed or invalid. Specifically, the
JSON.parse call on line and the JSON.parse call on content variable are
vulnerable. Wrap both JSON.parse operations in try-catch blocks to catch any
parsing errors and pass them to reject instead of allowing them to propagate as
uncaught exceptions, ensuring proper error handling and test reliability.
In `@test/test-upload-markdown.ts`:
- Around line 30-37: The env object in the spawned server configuration is
missing the GITLAB_TEST_MODE environment variable. Add GITLAB_TEST_MODE
alongside the other environment variables (SSE, STREAMABLE_HTTP,
REMOTE_AUTHORIZATION, GITLAB_MCP_OAUTH) in the env object to ensure test mode is
properly configured for the spawned server instance.

This PR mixes broadly useful fixes with personal/local workflow behavior.
The twinby → default migration looks like a private saved alias, and the no-arg cloud fallback plus automatic env-token migration into instances.json changes defaults for every user. That means the server can persist credentials to disk and select instances based on magic aliases/env vars without an explicit user action.
Could we split this into:
- the generic
glpat-→Private-Tokenauth header fix, - effective API URL consistency for switched sessions,
- a separate opt-in persistent instance feature?
For the persistent feature, please remove the private alias migration, remove the no-arg cloud fallback, and make env-to-file credential persistence explicit rather than automatic.

This PR introduces several key improvements to the GitLab MCP server to enhance usability in multi-instance environments and resolve authentication issues with fine-grained Personal Access Tokens.
Changes:
Persistent Instance Management:
ConfigManagerto handle saving and loading GitLab instances (URL, Token, Description) to a localinstances.jsonfile.gitlab_list_instances,gitlab_add_instance,gitlab_select_instance, andgitlab_switch_instance.instances.json(gitignored), removing the need for sensitive credentials in client-side configuration files.Robust Authentication Header Detection:
buildAuthHeadersto automatically detect token types.glpat-) now correctly use thePrivate-Tokenheader instead ofBearer, which resolves403 Forbidden (insufficient_granular_scope)errors on GitLab Cloud and certain self-hosted configurations.Bearersupport for OAuth-based authentication.Improved Instance Switching:
gitlab_switch_instancenow supports switching by alias or manual parameters.cloudalias switch if no parameters are provided, improving the UX for AI clients like Cursor or Codex.Automatic Migration:
GITLAB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN,GITLAB_CLOUD_TOKEN) into the persistentinstances.jsonon the first run.These changes make the GitLab MCP server significantly more reliable for users who need to switch between corporate (Self-hosted) and public (GitLab.com) instances frequently without leaking credentials into AI client configurations.
