Lataa GitLab MCP Server 2.6.5

## Highlights

### 🧪 A fully skip-free test suite — and the two product bugs it caught

The end-to-end suite now provisions everything it needs and runs **1,453 tests with zero skips**：an ephemeral Bitbucket Data Center container backs the `import_bitbucket_server` coverage (unattended setup with Atlassian's public timebomb test license), the db-migration bookkeeping path seeds itself through the Rails console, CI catalog versions are published through a real runner pipeline, and pending-approval users are provisioned for the approve/reject flows.

Exercising every path for real immediately exposed — and fixed — two bugs mocks had been hiding:

• **`gitlab_get_catalog_resource` / `gitlab_list_catalog_resources` never worked against current GitLab**：their GraphQL queries used fields GitLab has removed (`webUrl`, `forksCount`, `readmeHtml`, `latestVersion`, …), and the validation error was misreported as *not found*. The queries and output shapes now mirror the live schema 1:1 (`web_path`, `last_30_day_usage_count`, `archived`, `topics`, `verification_level`, `visibility_level`; README and components sourced from the newest version; `semver` flattened from its object form).
• **`gitlab_group_board_list_update` could never decode a successful response**：client-go's group-level wrapper declares `[]*BoardList` while GitLab returns the single updated object. The handler issues the request directly until the upstream fix lands — contributed by this project as [client-go!2996](https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/api/client-go/-/merge_requests/2996), accepted for the v3.0 release branch.

### 🎯 1:1 parity audit：zero findings

The group Datadog integration output now mirrors client-go's own dual shape：the canonical configuration lives in the nested `properties` object, while the flat top-level copies remain as **deprecated** conveniences (prefer `properties.*`). The change is purely additive — no consumer loses a field on any surface. With it, `make audit-1to1` reports **zero findings across every dimension** (struct input/output, action coverage, discovery metadata) for the first time in the project's history.

### ⚙️ Go 1.27 toolchain

Built with **Go 1.27.0** end to end：`go.mod`, CI, and the Docker image (`golang:1.27.0-alpine3.24`). The codebase adopts Go 1.27's promoted-fields-in-composite-literals style (enforced by the golangci-lint 2.13 baseline), and CodeQL moved from GitHub's default setup to a repository-owned workflow so security scanning keeps working the day a new Go version ships.

### 📦 GitLab client v2.58.2 — directory-structured package file names

Generic Package Registry file names may now describe a directory structure：`/` is kept as a real path separator, and empty, `.`, or `..` segments are rejected client-side before any request. `gitlab_package_publish` / `gitlab_package_download` document the contract in their schemas and return a specific, actionable hint when a name is invalid.

### 📌 Versioning policy, now written down

The server's **major version tracks client-go's major**：when client-go releases v3, this project moves to v3 in that same dependency bump — and that release removes the deprecated compatibility fields kept during the v2 cycle (the flat Datadog copies above, among others). Every other dependency update ships as a minor or patch release. Documented on the [about page](https://jmrplens.github.io/gitlab-mcp-server/about/) and in the contributor docs.

## Also in this release

• The release gate itself hardened by this release's own dry runs：the e2e db-migration seeding now picks a version the GitLab **web process** can resolve (Omnibus ships a relative `db/migrate` path that Puma, running with `cwd=/`, cannot — only the absolutely-pathed `post_migrate` directory is visible to the API), and the CI gates' test timeout was sized to the suite's real duration.
• Off-goroutine `testing.T` abort sweep completed (541 → 0 sites) with a CI gate (`cmd/audit_test_goroutines`) so they cannot return; two latent data races found by the enabled `-race` validation were fixed at the source.
• E2E action coverage at **1062/1062 (100%)**; the CE suite runs skip-free in ~11 minutes.
• Site toolchain refreshed (pnpm 11.22.0, Astro 7.2.4, Mermaid 11.17.0); TypeScript intentionally stays on 6.x until the 7.x native compiler exposes the API `astro check` needs.
• Dependencies at latest throughout; no direct dependency has a newer major available.

## Upgrading

No breaking changes. Self-update (`AUTO_UPDATE=true`, default), Homebrew (`brew upgrade gitlab-mcp-server`), winget, Docker, and the Claude Desktop `.mcpb` are all published for this tag.
