GitLab 18.11 Released with Automated Remediation & New Foundational Agents
GitLab 18.11 introduces Agentic SAST vulnerability resolution that automatically generates merge requests to fix critical and high‑severity findings. The release also makes the Data Analyst Agent generally available and launches the CI Expert Agent in beta, expanding AI‑driven assistance across the platform. Security enhancements include automated severity overrides, fine‑grained personal access tokens, and a top‑CWE chart, while service accounts are now offered on the Free tier and can be scoped to subgroups. Additional updates cover Gitaly on Kubernetes, usage caps for GitLab Credits, and broader model support such as Mistral AI.
