About

Connect Tracecat to GitLab to read and write projects, issues, merge requests, and pipelines for AppSec, DevOps, and SOC teams. You can triage a SAST or dependency finding and open a tracking issue assigned to the right code owner for fast remediation. From there, comment on merge requests, retry failed pipelines, and pull security findings into incident timelines with full audit attribution.
