MCP for GitHub PR, Issues, Tags and Releases

An MCP server that connects an LLM to GitHub's repository management features. It analyses pull requests, manages issues, and handles tags and releases, over stdio or HTTP, with a static token or GitHub OAuth2.

Pull requests - fetch diffs, content, linked issues and CI status, create, comment, review, merge and update, close, retarget, label and flip draft status, read and correct posted comments
Issues - create, update, list, search and assign, read a repository's labels, run milestones and file issues under them
Releases - tag commits, publish releases, and list, correct or withdraw what is published
Users - profile lookup, contribution activity and star growth via GraphQL
Repositories - list what a user, an organisation or the caller owns, and read any file or directory tree at a branch, tag or SHA

The full tool list is in docs/tools.md.
