GitKraken MCP sunucusu

🚀 GitKraken CLI

gk is GitKraken on the command line. The core functionality is focused on "Work Items" which can be thought of as the feature or issue you are trying to tackle. This allows you to work with multiple repos at once and get the same UX as if you were in a monorepo. We also provide robust AI-powered commit messages and Pull Request generation. It also provides an MCP server that streamlines working with git and your Issue and git hosting providers.

GitKraken CLI is available on macOS, Windows, and Unix systems.

MCP Server

The GitKraken MCP server is a local MCP server that is powerful and easy to use. It wraps git, GitHub, Jira MCP actions as well as provides tools to LLMs that work with GitKraken APIs and functionality. You can find specific installation instructions based on your chosen AI application in the Help Center.

Workflows

Start with a single repo. You can add more later.

In general, your process will look like this:

# Authenticate
gk auth login

# Navigate to a git repo directory on your filesystem
cd ./path/to/repo

# Then create a Work Item and the current directory
# will be automatically added to the Work Item
gk work create "My new work item"

# Edit files...
# ...

# Commit your changes using AI
gk work commit --ai

# Push your changes
gk work push

# Create a Pull Request
gk work pr create --ai

Once you have familiarized yourself with using a single repo, try out creating work items and generating commits and PRs for multiple repos at a time by just adding multiple repos to a new Work Item.

# Add a repo to the current work item
gk work add ./path/to/repo # path could be as simple as "." if you are in the directory already

git Command Passthrough

You can also use gk to pass through any git command. eg:

gk status
gk remote -v
# etc

⚙️ Configuration

Nerd Fonts

The GitKraken CLI supports Nerd Fonts to display icons for some commands. To ensure correct icon rendering, please obtain and install a Nerd Font available at https://www.nerdfonts.com/. After installation, set the selected Nerd Font as the default font for your terminal.

Troubleshooting

gk login freezes after authenticating in browser

This problem is due to the browser. Currently we know that Safari and Brave do not allow to respond to localhost through port 1314. To fix this, change your default browser or copy the URL before the redirect and open it in another browser.

gk from Oh-My-Zsh

Oh-My-Zsh has gitk aliased as gk and that can create some problems. To fix this, type in your terminal:

unalias gk

Manual macOS Installation

If you install the CLI manually from the releases page on macOS, you will likely run into a security error that looks like this:

To fix this, go to Settings > Security & Privacy > General and click "Allow Anyway".

Try running gk setup again and then click "Open Anyway" to continue.
