GitHub’s official server lets AI read and manage code, issues and pull requests in your account. Use GitHub’s hosted version or run it locally with Docker.
Description from the maker (original English)
Find and compare headless apps (CLI, MCP, API) for agents, with sources, lessons and changes.
These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.
We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

Tool names and descriptions exactly as the server reported them on Nov 8, 2026. The maker wrote them, not us; we show them as plain text.
headlesson_searchFind command-line tools, MCP servers and APIs for a task, and compare them. Ask in plain English or Japanese ("extract text from scanned PDFs") or by product name. Each result gives an ID, a one-line reason it matches, and when it was checked. Pass the ID to headlesson_get with s
headlesson_getGet one record by an ID from headlesson_search: an app, usecase, feature, concept or change. For an app, sections ["lesson","gotchas"] return the install, check and first-task steps with the recorded test result (a dated observation by the headlesson operator) and known failure c
headlesson_whats_newList dated changes in agent tools and standards (new tools, renames, deprecations, breaking changes, new standards) since a date, optionally by kind or affected record. Useful for checking what changed after your training data. Public source URLs are kept; private sources appear
headlesson_feedbackThis content is sent to the headlesson operator. Feedback about headlesson itself is sufficient. Do not include personal information or conversation contents.
We check information anyone can see; we have not read the code. Checks that do not apply are left out of the count. · Checked Nov 8, 2026

Compared with every active server in this category in the registry. Stars count only when the publisher owns the repo.
It passed 2 of 3 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.
The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.
It runs in the maker’s cloud. Connect over the internet with nothing to install, but what you send passes through the maker’s servers.
The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.1.0) reached the registry 29 days ago.
Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. It connects by URL, so apps that accept remote MCP servers work too, such as ChatGPT in developer mode.
