You can configure MCP BugBot GitLab using environment variables, either directly or via your Cursor MCP configuration.

Required:

• GITLAB_URL: Your GitLab server URL (e.g., https://gitlab.com)
• GITLAB_TOKEN: Your GitLab Personal Access Token

Optional:

• GITLAB_SSL_NO_VERIFY: Set to 1 to disable SSL verification (for self-hosted GitLab)
• GITLAB_USER: The GitLab username (if needed for API calls)
• JIRA_SERVER_URL, JIRA_TOKEN, JIRA_PROJECT_KEY: For Jira integration/cross-verification

Using with Cursor AI

1. Register the MCP Server with Cursor

   Add the following to your ~/.cursor/mcp.json:

   {
     "mcpServers": {
       "gitlab-bugbot": {
         "command": "/path/to/your/python",
         "args": ["-m", "mcp_bugbot_gitlab.server"],
         "description": "GitLab BugBot MCP server using venv Python",
         "env": {
           "GITLAB_URL": "https://gitlab.example.com",
           "GITLAB_TOKEN": "your_gitlab_token",
           "GITLAB_SSL_NO_VERIFY": "1",
           "GITLAB_USER": "your_gitlab_username",
           "JIRA_SERVER_URL": "https://jira.example.com",
           "JIRA_TOKEN": "your_jira_token",
           "JIRA_PROJECT_KEY": "YOURPROJECT"
         }
       }
     }
   }
   

   • Adjust the "command" path to your Python interpreter (e.g., from a virtualenv).
   • Set all environment variables as needed for your environment.

2. Start Cursor

   • Open Cursor and ensure the MCP server is registered.
   • GitLab BugBot tools will be available in the Cursor tool interface.
