Frequently asked questions

What dependencies are required?

Python and pip are required. The server uses environment variables `GITHUB_TOKEN` and `GITHUB_REPO` for authentication and repository targeting.

Where does the data live?

All data resides in the specified GitHub repository (defined by `GITHUB_REPO`). The server acts as an intermediary to perform operations on that repository.

How is authentication handled?

Authentication is handled via a GitHub personal access token provided in the `GITHUB_TOKEN` environment variable.

What transport does the server use?

The server runs as a local Python process and communicates via the MCP protocol; the README only describes usage from Cursor IDE, suggesting a local client-server model.

Are there any known limits?

The README does not mention any specific limits.
