WHAT IT DOES

What get_project_events does on Gitlab Mcp

AI agents call get_project_events to retrieve information from Gitlab Mcp without modifying anything. It is typically the context-gathering step in research, monitoring, and reporting workflows, before the agent takes action elsewhere.

RISK

Why get_project_events is rated Low

This tool retrieves project event logs/history without modifying, creating, or deleting any data. It is a straightforward query operation with no side effects. The date-based filtering parameters confirm it is a read-only operation. Low severity due to minimal blast radius—at worst, it could expose event metadata already visible to authorized users.

From the tool's definition Tool name 'get_project_events' with verb 'List' and description 'List events for a project' indicates data retrieval with no modification capability. Takes only date filters as parameters (before/after: YYYY-MM-DD).

get_project_events Allowed

get_project_events is read-only, so it stays allowed. Everything else on the server is denied unless you say otherwise.
