You run a GitHub MCP Server that exposes repositories, issues, pull requests, commits, and user information through a standardized interface. Built in TypeScript, it helps you query GitHub data efficiently from any MCP-compatible client.

How to use

You connect an MCP client to the server and start asking questions about GitHub data. You can retrieve your own profile, explore repositories you own, list issues and PRs in a repository, browse commits, and run searches across GitHub. Use natural language prompts or explicit tool calls to fetch the information you need, and rely on the server to handle authentication, rate limits, and error reporting.

How to install

Prerequisites: Node.js 18 or newer, npm or yarn, and a GitHub Personal Access Token with appropriate scopes.

# 1. Clone your MCP server project
git clone <your-repo-url>
cd github-mcp-ts-sdk

# 2. Install dependencies
npm install

# 3. Set up environment variables
cp env.example .env
# Edit .env and add your GitHub token

Runtime start and development flow
