Overview

What is GitHub Mapper MCP Server?

GitHub Mapper MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides tools for mapping and analyzing GitHub repositories. It allows users to set a GitHub Personal Access Token and retrieve detailed repository information, including structure and summary statistics (stars, forks, language, etc.). It is intended for developers who want to analyze GitHub repository structure through MCP-compatible clients like Claude Desktop.

How to use GitHub Mapper MCP Server?

Install via Smithery (npx -y @smithery/cli install github-mapper-mcp-server --client claude) or manually (clone, npm install, npm run build, npm start). The server runs on stdio. Use the set-github-token tool to provide a GitHub Personal Access Token, then use map-github-repo with a repository URL to get its structure and summary. Example: "Please set-github-token to ghp_..." and "Please map-github-repo https://github.com/owner/repo".

Key features of GitHub Mapper MCP Server

  • Set a GitHub Personal Access Token for authentication.

  • Retrieve repository summary (stars, forks, language, etc.).
  • Provide a detailed, nested repository file tree output.

Use cases of GitHub Mapper MCP Server

  • Quickly inspect a repository’s structure and metadata from an MCP client.
  • Integrate repository analysis into Claude Desktop or other MCP‑compatible IDEs.
  • Automate repository discovery and summarization in development workflows.
