AI Agent

Why people use GitHub

GitHub for Engineering Workflow Management

With this Connector, you just ask your agent for the status of your repo. It pulls the data instantly, summarizes the open issues, and tells you exactly where the build failed. You get a clear picture of your project's health without ever leaving your workspace.

Before you connect

Questions about GitHub.

The practical details behind the request, access and result.

Can the GitHub MCP create issues for me?

Yes, you can ask your agent to create a new issue with a specific title, description, and labels. It will handle the submission to GitHub for you automatically.

How does the GitHub MCP help with CI/CD?

It allows your agent to check the status and conclusion of your recent GitHub Actions runs. You can quickly see if your latest deployment or build succeeded or failed.

Can I use the GitHub MCP to search for public repos?

Yes, you can use the search functionality to find repositories based on language, star counts, or other specific qualifiers using natural language.

Does the GitHub MCP work with my private repositories?

It works with any repository your Personal Access Token has permission to access, including private ones belonging to your organization or personal account.

How do I check my PR status using the GitHub MCP?

You can simply ask your agent to list your pull requests. It will return the status, author, and draft state for your active reviews.

Can the GitHub MCP see my release notes?

Yes, you can fetch specific release details and assets by providing the git tag name to your agent.

Can I use the GitHub MCP to audit my commit history?

You can ask your agent to list the latest commits on any branch. This helps you see exactly what changes were made and by whom.

How do I create a GitHub Personal Access Token?

Go to Settings > Developer settings > Personal access tokens, click Generate new token (classic), give it a descriptive name, select the scopes you need (recommended: repo, workflow, read:org) and click Generate token. Copy the token immediately. it starts with ghp_ and won't be shown again.

Can I create issues with labels via the agent?

Yes! Use the create_issue capability with the owner, repo and title parameters. Optionally provide a Markdown body and comma-separated labels (e.g. "bug,high-priority"). The agent will create the issue and return its number, title and URL.

How do I search for repositories with specific criteria?

Use the search_repos capability with GitHub's query syntax. Examples: "machine learning in:name language:python stars:>1000" finds Python ML repos with 1k+ stars; "org:microsoft pushed:>2024-01-01" finds Microsoft repos updated in 2024. The query supports qualifiers for language, stars, forks, org, topic, size and more.

Does this capability support GitHub Actions workflow monitoring?

Yes! Use list_workflow_runs to see recent CI/CD executions for a repository. You can filter by branch and see each run's status (queued, in_progress, completed) and conclusion (success, failure, cancelled). This is useful for checking if recent deployments or builds passed without opening the Actions tab.

Can I read private repositories?

Yes, provided your Personal Access Token (PAT) has the 'repo' scope or appropriate fine-grained permissions for those repositories.

How do I find a repository owner and name?

In a GitHub URL like github.com/vinkius/mcp-server, the owner is vinkius and the repository name is mcp-server.

Does it support creating pull requests?

This version supports listing pull requests and issues. PR creation is currently handled through the web interface or other specialized capabilities.
