Overview

What is Flash-GitHub?

Flash-GitHub is a GitHub API integration server built on the MCP (Message Control Protocol) framework. It provides a standardized, tool-based interface for common GitHub repository operations such as searching, creating, reading content, and syncing local directories with remote repositories. The server is intended for developers and automation workflows that need programmatic GitHub access through MCP.

How to use Flash-GitHub?

Install dependencies with pip install -r requirements.txt, then create a .env file containing your GitHub API token (GITHUB_API_TOKEN=your_github_token_here). Run the server with python flash-github.py to expose the available tools.
