Task 01: GitLab MR Contextual Link Action

Acceptance

• An unlinked task renders no generic GitLab Link MR action in desktop or mobile task top bars, while linked MR status/dropdown behavior is unchanged.
• A GitLab-configured workspace exposes GitLab Merge Request in the shared task Link submenu on kanban cards, desktop sidebar rows, and the mobile task switcher; unconfigured workspaces omit it.
• Selecting the action opens the existing TaskMRLinkDialog for the selected task and active workspace with that task's repositories.

Inputs

• Spec What bullets and the three contextual-link/top-bar scenarios.
• Plan Frontend, Mobile design contract, and Tests sections.
• Existing GitHub menu callback plumbing and TaskGitHubPRDialog wiring.
• Existing TaskMRLinkDialog, useGitLabAvailable, and linked-MR top-bar dropdown behavior.

Implementation Notes

• Follow /tdd and /mobile-parity; do not spawn subagents.
• Add the failing menu-policy/unit coverage before production changes.
• Keep the action label provider-specific: GitLab Merge Request.
• Preserve Link another merge request inside the linked-MR top-bar dropdown.
• Do not add backend endpoints, state slices, or a second GitLab link dialog.
• Update only this task file's status. Do not edit plan.md.

Verification

cd apps && pnpm --filter @kandev/web test -- --run components/kanban-card-menu-items.test.tsx components/task/task-switcher.test.tsx components/gitlab/mr-topbar-button.test.ts
cd apps/web && pnpm run typecheck

Output Contract

Report the behavior implemented, files changed, RED/GREEN evidence, targeted test and typecheck results, mobile parity observations, blockers, and residual risks. Set this task to in_progress before code changes and done only after acceptance and verification pass.
