Answered my own question I guess, reading a post at https://about.gitlab.com/2013/06/20/integrating-gitlab-ci-with-gitlab/
We still want a clean separation between GitLab and GitLab CI to allow them to develop independently, reduce security risks and keep each code base small. Therefore, GitLab CI has its own database and uses GitLab’s public API to communicate with GitLab. GitLab CI does not have access to more code or user information than what is accessible by the users who are logged in to GitLab CI.
