v1.86.0 Changes

Auto-enabled JSON output

As of v1.86.0, glab mcp serve automatically enables JSON output format when running — no manual flag needed. This improves parsing reliability for AI assistants consuming the MCP server's tool responses.

Unannotated commands excluded

Commands that lack MCP annotations are no longer registered as MCP tools. This means only explicitly supported commands are exposed to AI assistants, reducing noise and improving reliability. If a GitLab operation you expect isn't available as an MCP tool, it may lack MCP annotations in the current release.

Subcommands
