+# GitLab CI Debugger
+
+This skill helps debug and monitor GitLab CI/CD pipelines associated with merge requests. It can check pipeline status,
+display job information grouped by stage, and retrieve logs for specific jobs.
+
+This skill enables Claude to investigate GitLab CI pipeline failures by:
+
+1. Checking the current branch's MR pipeline status
+2. Identifying failed jobs
+3. Retrieving failed job logs
+4. Analyzing error messages and suggesting fixes
+5.
+
+## Prerequisites
+
+Required tools (verify that these exist):
+
+- `uv` package manager
+    - If not installed, instruct the user to run `pip install uv` or `curl -LsSf https://astral.sh/uv/install.sh | sh`
+
+The script also requires the following configuration:
+
+- Git repository with GitLab remote configured
+- GitLab authentication via GITLAB_TOKEN env var or .netrc file
+
+The script will fail if it detects any missing configuration. Interpret the error message and provide instructions
+for setting up the required configuration.
+
+## Instructions
+
+When the user asks to check CI status, debug pipeline failures, or view job logs:
+
+1. **Check Current Pipeline Status**
+    - Use the `check_mr_pipeline.py` script without arguments to check the current branch's MR pipeline status
+    - The script will display all jobs grouped by stage with status indicators
+
+2. **Check Specific Branch**
+    - If the user asks to check on the pipeline status for a different branch than the current one, use the `-b` or
+      `--branch` option to specify that branch.
+        - Example: `./check_mr_pipeline.py -b feature-branch`
+
+3. **View Job Logs**
+    - Use the `-j` or `--job` option to retrieve and display logs for a specific job
+    - Example: `./check_mr_pipeline.py -j "test-job-name"`
+    - The script will show the job's metadata and full log output
+
+4. **Troubleshoot CI Failures**
+    - If the user asks to troubleshoot a CI failure, use the full log output of a job to identify the error and suggest
+      fixes.
+
+## Troubleshooting
+
+- **No open merge request found**: Ensure there's an open MR for the branch
+- **Authentication errors when running the script**: Instruct user to set up GITLAB_TOKEN or .netrc file
+- **Job not found**: Use the script without `-j` option first to see available job names
+- **Script requires uv**: The script uses `uv run --script` to install dependencies and run the script. Ensure that
+  `uv` is installed.
