# glab

GitLab skill dispatcher.

## Critical Rules

- **Markdown output: soft-wrap prose, never hard-wrap** — when this skill writes a `.md` artifact (review doc, comment body, or any generated document), write each paragraph as one continuous line; do not insert manual newlines to wrap prose at a fixed column width. Newlines still separate paragraphs, list items, headings, and code fences. (If a markdown formatter is available, `prettier --prose-wrap never` enforces this deterministically.)

- **Never execute workflow logic here** — this file only parses args and dispatches
- **Step 0 always runs first** — no exceptions
- **Unknown verb → run `help.md`** — never error silently
- **Pass all remaining args through** — workflow receives `$REMAINING_ARGS` unchanged

## Step 0: Parse Arguments

The raw invocation args (filled by Claude Code / OpenCode slash commands): `$ARGUMENTS`. If this line is not filled in, read the verb and remaining args from the user's current message.

```bash
VERB="[first non-flag argument, or empty]"
REMAINING_ARGS="[everything after VERB, preserving order and flags]"

case "$VERB" in
  "")         VERB="help"         ;;
  "watch")    VERB="ci"           ;;
  "report")   VERB="report-issue" ;;
  "bug")      VERB="report-issue" ;;
  "rc")       VERB="retcon"  ;;
esac
```

## Step 1: Dispatch to Workflow

Read and execute `references/workflows/{VERB}.md`, passing `$REMAINING_ARGS` as the argument string.

If `references/workflows/{VERB}.md` does not exist, fall back to `references/workflows/help.md` and note the unknown verb.

## Workflow Index

- **ci** (`references/workflows/ci.md`) — watch GitLab CI for the current branch
- **pull-comments** (`references/workflows/pull-comments.md`) — fetch MR discussion threads to a doc
- **push-comments** (`references/workflows/push-comments.md`) — submit inline notes to an MR
- **draft** (`references/workflows/draft.md`) — create a draft MR note
- **resolve-comments** (`references/workflows/resolve-comments.md`) — resolve MR discussion threads
- **complete** (`references/workflows/complete.md`) — publish a draft MR or submit pending review
- **report-issue** (`references/workflows/report-issue.md`) — create a GitLab issue from a bug report or QA report file
- **retcon** (`references/workflows/retcon.md`) — propose and apply commit message edits for the current branch's open GitLab MR
- **help** (`references/workflows/help.md`) — print command reference
