What

Adds two new skills that port the existing GitHub plan workflow to GitLab, plus validation docs:

  • codely-plan-create-gitlab — same planning flow as codely-plan-create-github, but stored as GitLab issues: a parent plan issue (Goal, Context, phase checklist) and one linked child issue per phase via glab's --linked-issues.
  • codely-plan_phase-implement-gitlab — implements one phase (child) issue at a time on its <iid>-<slug> branch and opens a merge request referencing the phase issue, keeping the plan issues reconciled.
  • docs/gitlab-skills-validation.md — guide for validating both skills, including self-hosted risks.

Validation

The skills have been tested end-to-end (create plan → implement phases → merge MR → close issues) in:

  • gitlab.com: TFG_UNIR-monorepo
  • Internal self-hosted GitLab: an organization project, where we found that instances with auto-close disabled do not close issues when merging an MR with Closes #N (the MR API returns closes_issues: []). This motivated the explicit-closing fallback: the skill closes the phase issue with glab issue close after confirming the merge, and reconciles overdue phases (already-merged MRs with open issues) at the start of each invocation.

Also

  • Registers both skills in the README RPI table and the skills.sh.json grouping, keeping the catalog consistent with the GitHub variants.

Mirror the github plan skills on top of glab: create plans as
related-issue linked issues and implement one phase per merge
request with closing references.

Capture the procedure to validate the gitlab plan skills against
the organization internal GitLab instance, so it can be reused on
any project.

Some self-hosted instances (work items) keep closes_issues empty for
merged merge requests, leaving the phase issues open. Reconcile stale
merged phases at the start of each invocation and close issues once
the merge is confirmed, both documented in the validation guide.
Also add the contributors metadata to the gitlab skills.
