How it works

Connected in a minute. In your control after that.

  1. Connect GitLab

    Open Connections, find GitLab and press Connect. You sign in on GitLab's own page; there's nothing to configure.

  2. Choose what it may do

    Full, Ask first or Read-only, for the whole workspace. Share GitLab with the team, or keep it under each person's own login.

  3. Ask from anywhere

    Text your agent on iMessage or WhatsApp, message it in Slack or the app, or put a GitLab job on a schedule: every morning, every Friday.

Works with your other tools

GitLab, together with the rest of your stack.

Ask for an outcome that spans apps and your agent pulls from each one, cross-checks them and sends back one answer.

Is my GitLab data safe?
