FAQ from Everforth GitHub MCP Server

How does this differ from the official GitHub MCP?

The official GitHub MCP server was not fully usable and does not support GitHub ProjectV2 (kanban), which requires GraphQL. This server provides a GraphQL-based alternative.

What runtime is required?

The server runs via Docker. A public image (ikutani41/github-cli-mcp-server) is provided; alternatively, you can build your own using the provided Dockerfile after running npm install.

Where does data live?

All data is fetched live from GitHub’s API. No local storage is used.

Are there any known limitations?

The README does not list any specific limitations. The server focuses on GraphQL queries to GitHub.

What transport or authentication is used?

The server communicates via stdin/stdout over Docker. Authentication uses a GitHub personal access token set via the GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN environment variable.
