Support GitLab?

Does it support self-hosted GitLab?

Supprt Gitlab

That is really great (wanted to do the same thing, so thanks for that!).

I think it would be great if we would have a toggle for different tools, e.g. Github and Gitlab along with a toggle which to use, but based on one code base (from this project). There may be improvements/fixes coming in in either repo, having one spot would be perfect imo.

Great question! GitLab has excellent CLI support that could work with CCPM.

✅ GitLab CLI (glab) Support

GitLab has an official CLI tool called glab that's actively maintained by GitLab:

• Official GitLab CLI: glab (maintained at gitlab.com/gitlab-org/cli)
• Full feature parity: Issues, merge requests, pipelines, releases
• Commands: glab issue create, glab issue list, glab mr create
• Multi-instance support: GitLab.com, GitLab Dedicated, Self-Managed

🏗️ Technical Feasibility

Pros:

• glab has very similar command structure to gh
• GitLab Issues work similarly to GitHub Issues
• Labels, milestones, assignees all supported
• Merge requests ≈ Pull requests

Example Command Comparison:

# GitHub
gh issue create --title "Bug fix" --body "Description"

# GitLab  
glab issue create --title "Bug fix" --description "Description"

🛣️ Implementation Path

GitLab support could be added by:

1. Creating GitLab-specific command variants (e.g., epic-sync-gitlab.md)
2. Adding provider detection (check for GitLab remotes vs GitHub)
3. Adapting sync commands to use glab instead of gh

📋 Roadmap Position

I'd rank GitLab as Priority #2 after Linear for multi-provider support because:

• Excellent CLI ecosystem (official glab tool)
• Similar data model to GitHub Issues
• Large enterprise adoption
• Self-hosted options (GitLab Self-Managed)

This fits perfectly with our new multi-AI CLI architecture that will support:

ccpm gitlab pm:epic-sync user-auth    # Uses glab
ccpm github pm:epic-sync user-auth    # Uses gh  

🎯 Current Status

Adding this to our Phase 2 roadmap alongside Linear support. The technical foundation is very similar to our GitHub integration.

Would you be interested in GitLab integration as one of the first GitHub alternatives? This could be part of the upcoming CLI rewrite.

@a616101 This is fantastic! 🎉

I see you've already implemented GitLab support with the glab CLI at:
https://github.com/a616101/ccpm/tree/supprt_gitlab

🚀 Ready for Integration

Would you be interested in creating a Pull Request to bring this into the main repository? This would be an amazing contribution and exactly what the community is asking for!

🔧 Integration Approach

Based on your implementation and @MichaelAnders suggestion about having "one codebase with toggles", we could integrate this as:

Option 1: Provider Detection (Recommended)

Option 2: Explicit Provider Commands

Option 3: Configuration-Based

🎯 Perfect Timing

Your implementation comes at the perfect time:

• We just cleaned up the repository (10/12 issues resolved)
• GitLab was identified as Priority #2 for multi-provider support
• The codebase is clean and ready for this kind of enhancement
• Multiple community members are asking for this feature

📋 Next Steps

1. Create a Pull Request from your supprt_gitlab branch
2. We'll review and provide feedback on integration approach
3. Collaborate on testing across different GitLab instances (GitLab.com, self-hosted)
4. Merge and celebrate the first multi-provider support! 🎉

🙋‍♂️ Questions

• Does your implementation work with self-hosted GitLab instances? (That was @lookdczar's original question)
• Have you tested with GitLab.com and GitLab Dedicated?
• Any specific glab features or limitations we should be aware of?

This would be a major milestone for CCPM - making it the first multi-platform project management tool for developers!
