Which app do you use?

ClaudeClaude CodeCursorVS CodeChatGPT

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "github": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@rog0x/mcp-github-tools"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add github -- npx -y @rog0x/mcp-github-tools

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "github": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@rog0x/mcp-github-tools"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "github": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@rog0x/mcp-github-tools"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Common questions

Is GitHub safe?

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.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

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).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.1) reached the registry 8 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

mcp-github-tools

An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that provides GitHub analytics and management tools for AI agents. Analyze repositories, summarize pull requests, triage issues, generate release notes, and track contributor activity — all through a standardized tool interface.

Tools

github_repo_analyzer

Analyze a GitHub repository and get a comprehensive overview including stars, forks, open issues, language breakdown, top contributors, and weekly commit activity trends.

github_pr_summarizer

Summarize a pull request with diff stats, categorized file changes, review status (approvals, change requests, pending reviewers), and recent comment excerpts.

github_issue_triage

Analyze open issues in a repository. Automatically categorizes issues by labels and keywords (bug, feature, docs, security, etc.), suggests priorities based on engagement and age, identifies potential duplicates using text similarity, and flags stale issues.

github_release_notes

Generate release notes from commits between two references (tags, branches, or SHAs). Categorizes commits using conventional commit patterns and produces both Markdown and structured JSON output.

github_contributor_stats

Get contributor statistics within a configurable time window: commits, PRs opened/merged, code reviews, and identification of first-time contributors.

Requirements

Node.js 18 or later
No authentication required for public repositories
Optional GitHub personal access token for higher rate limits (5,000 requests/hour vs 60)

Installation

git clone https://github.com/rog0x/mcp-github-tools.git

cd mcp-github-tools npm install npm run build

Configuration

Claude Desktop

Add to your Claude Desktop configuration file:

Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json macOS: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json

"mcpServers": { "github-tools": { "command": "node", "args": ["D:/products/mcp-servers/mcp-github-tools/dist/index.js"] } } }

Claude Code

Add the server using the CLI:

claude mcp add github-tools node D:/products/mcp-servers/mcp-github-tools/dist/index.js

Or add it to your .claude/settings.json:

"mcpServers": { "github-tools": { "command": "node", "args": ["D:/products/mcp-servers/mcp-github-tools/dist/index.js"] } } }

Usage Examples

Once connected, the tools are available to the AI agent automatically. Here are example prompts:

"Analyze the repository facebook/react"
"Summarize PR #1234 in vercel/next.js"
"Triage open issues in microsoft/vscode"
"Generate release notes for rust-lang/rust from 1.75.0 to 1.76.0"
"Show contributor stats for the last 30 days in nodejs/node"

GitHub Token

All tools accept an optional token parameter for authenticated requests. Without a token, the GitHub API allows 60 requests per hour. With a token, the limit increases to 5,000 requests per hour.

You can create a personal access token at github.com/settings/tokens. No special scopes are required for public repository access.
