GitHub
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)
GitHub repositories, issues and pull requests via the REST API, as MCP tools.
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.
Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

Compared with every active server in this category in the registry. Stars count only when the publisher owns the repo.
It passed 1 of 1 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 on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).
The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (0.1.0) reached the registry 4 days ago.

GitHub repositories, issues and pull requests as MCP tools, talking to the GitHub REST API. codehost-port is a clean-room rebuild of the core surface of the GitHub reference MCP server, under a new name: the same tool names and wire behaviour, fresh code, no copied branding.
create_repository, fork_repository, create_branch, get_file_contents, create_or_update_file, push_files, search_repositories, search_code, list_issues, get_issue, create_issue, add_issue_comment, list_pull_requests, create_pull_request.
Pull-request detail/review tools, issue update tools, user search and release tools from the full reference surface are not in this subset.
Set a GitHub personal access token:
export GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN=ghp_...
Optionally point at GitHub Enterprise with GITHUB_API_URL (default https://api.github.com). Without the token, every tool call fails with an error naming the missing variable.
npx @reneturcios/codehost-port create_issue '{"owner":"octo","repo":"demo","title":"Bug"}'
npx @reneturcios/codehost-port mcp # stdio MCP server
Each tool name is a subcommand taking one JSON object argument.
