# GitHub

The official GitHub MCP server, talking to the GitHub API over HTTPS. Reaches repositories, issues, pull requests and workflows — treat its write tools as high-impact.

- **Publisher of the server:** GitHub
- **Upstream:** https://github.com/github/github-mcp-server
- **Documentation:** https://github.com/github/github-mcp-server
- **Transport:** streamable HTTP (remote)
- **Endpoint:** `https://api.githubcopilot.com/mcp/`

## Credentials and configuration

- Authorization: Bearer <personal access token>

These are **placeholders describing what to supply**; the registry stores no credentials. Enter real values in your own AO instance when you create the connection.

## Tools (12)

- `get_me` — Return the authenticated user.
- `get_issue` — Read one issue including its comments.
- `create_issue` — Open a new issue.
- `update_issue` — Edit an existing issue's fields.
- `list_issues` — List issues, optionally filtered by state or label.
- `create_pull_request` — Open a pull request from a branch.
- `get_pull_request` — Read one pull request.
- `list_pull_requests` — List pull requests.
- `merge_pull_request` — Merge a pull request into its base branch.
- `get_file_contents` — Read a file's contents from a repository.
- `search_code` — Search code across repositories the token can read.
- `search_repositories` — Search repositories by name, topic or text.

## Risk

Declared risk: **high**. Tools that can change state: `create_issue`, `update_issue`, `create_pull_request`, `merge_pull_request`. Write access must be enabled explicitly.
