• User mentions "label", "tag" (for categorization), "category"
• User wants to organize issues or MRs

NEVER use when:

• User wants to apply labels to issues/MRs (use gitlab-issue or gitlab-mr)
• User wants to manage git tags (use git commands or gitlab-release)

Available Commands

List Labels

glab label list [options]

Options:

Examples:

# List all project labels
glab label list

# List with more results
glab label list --per-page=100

Create Label

glab label create <name> [options]

Options:

Examples:

# Create label with default color
glab label create "needs-review"

# Create label with color
glab label create "bug" -c "#ff0000"

# Create label with color and description
glab label create "priority::high" \
  -c "#dc3545" \
  -d "High priority items requiring immediate attention"

# Create scoped label
glab label create "status::in-progress" \
  -c "#ffc107" \
  -d "Work in progress"

Common Label Patterns

Priority Labels

glab label create "priority::critical" -c "#dc3545" -d "Must fix immediately"
glab label create "priority::high" -c "#fd7e14" -d "Fix in current sprint"
glab label create "priority::medium" -c "#ffc107" -d "Fix soon"
glab label create "priority::low" -c "#28a745" -d "Nice to have"

Type Labels

glab label create "type::bug" -c "#d73a4a" -d "Something isn't working"
glab label create "type::feature" -c "#0366d6" -d "New feature request"
glab label create "type::docs" -c "#0075ca" -d "Documentation"
glab label create "type::refactor" -c "#6f42c1" -d "Code refactoring"

Status Labels

glab label create "status::backlog" -c "#6c757d" -d "In backlog"
glab label create "status::ready" -c "#17a2b8" -d "Ready to start"
glab label create "status::in-progress" -c "#ffc107" -d "Work in progress"
glab label create "status::review" -c "#007bff" -d "In review"
glab label create "status::done" -c "#28a745" -d "Completed"

Workflow Labels

glab label create "needs-review" -c "#d876e3" -d "Needs code review"
glab label create "needs-design" -c "#fbca04" -d "Needs design input"
glab label create "blocked" -c "#b60205" -d "Blocked by external dependency"
glab label create "help-wanted" -c "#008672" -d "Looking for contributors"

GitLab Scoped Labels

GitLab supports scoped labels using the :: separator:

priority::high
status::in-progress
type::bug

Only one label per scope can be applied to an issue/MR, making them mutually exclusive.

Common Workflows

Workflow 1: Set Up New Project Labels

# Create priority labels
glab label create "priority::critical" -c "#dc3545"
glab label create "priority::high" -c "#fd7e14"
glab label create "priority::medium" -c "#ffc107"
glab label create "priority::low" -c "#28a745"

# Create type labels
glab label create "type::bug" -c "#d73a4a"
glab label create "type::feature" -c "#0366d6"
glab label create "type::docs" -c "#0075ca"

Workflow 2: Apply Labels to Issues

# List available labels
glab label list

# Create issue with labels
glab issue create -t "Fix login bug" -l "type::bug,priority::high"

# Update issue labels
glab issue update 42 -l "status::in-progress"
