Frequently asked questions

How do I authenticate with this server?

You must create a GitHub OAuth application, obtain a Client ID and Secret, and store them in `client_credentials.json`. Then visit `/auth/login` to authenticate and pass the `X-ACCESS-TOKEN` header with all API calls.

What are the runtime dependencies?

The server requires Python 3, the `cryptography` library (for Fernet encryption), and the FastAPI package. It uses SQLite for credential storage.

Where does user data live?

User credentials are stored in a local SQLite database at `storage/sqlite_credentials.db`. All GitHub operations are performed via the GitHub API, so repository data stays on GitHub.

What transport protocol does the server use?

The server exposes an HTTP API via FastAPI. Clients communicate over HTTP/HTTPS, typically from the easy MCP server.

Are there any known limits?

The README does not mention specific rate limits. However, the tool relies on GitHub’s API, so GitHub’s own rate limits apply. The encryption key must be generated and kept secure, and the OAuth app must be configured correctly.
