## Overview

GitLab CI/CD is built into the platform: `.gitlab-ci.yml` defines pipelines of stages and jobs that run on shared or self-managed runners, with first-class environments, review apps, and security scanning. For teams already on GitLab, it's the path of least resistance — code, CI, and CD in one permission model.

Its power features (parent-child pipelines, dynamic child pipelines, review apps, environments with stop actions) reward deliberate design; its flexibility punishes copy-paste sprawl. This skill covers designing fast, secure GitLab pipelines.

## When to use

- Setting up CI/CD in GitLab.
- Designing pipeline stages, rules, and job dependencies.
- Speeding up pipelines (caching, DAG, parallelization).
- Using environments, review apps, and deployments.
- Securing pipelines (protected branches, masked variables, OIDC).
- Choosing GitLab runners (shared, group, project, self-managed).
