Introducing GitLab Duo Agentic Chat: Your Intelligent Assistant in the Web UI

GitLab continues to push the boundaries of AI-assisted development with the introduction of GitLab Duo Agentic Chat, now available directly in the Web UI. This feature empowers developers and DevOps professionals by integrating a conversational AI assistant that understands context, recommends solutions, and accelerates workflows without leaving the GitLab environment.

With Agentic Chat, users can now engage in meaningful conversations with GitLab’s AI assistant, which draws from project data, documentation, and GitLab’s full feature set to generate code, answer questions, and propose optimisations. The chat interface supports rich interactions that go beyond simple Q&A—enabling intelligent dialogue that helps solve real problems in real time.

Key capabilities include:

  • Generate and explain code snippets with references to your repository context.
  • Ask questions about your project and receive tailored answers based on live GitLab data.
  • Seek guidance on GitLab features or CI/CD best practices without navigating away.
  • Use commands to trigger actions or request summaries of merge requests or issues.
