概览

What is GitHub MCP Server?

The GitHub MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides GitHub repository creation functionality. It allows AI applications and other MCP clients to programmatically create new GitHub repositories with customizable settings using the standard MCP protocol over stdin/stdout.

How to use GitHub MCP Server?

Clone the repository, install Python dependencies via pip install -r requirements.txt, set the GITHUB_TOKEN environment variable with a token that has repo and user scopes, then run python main.py. The server listens for JSON‑RPC 2.0 requests (e.g., tools/call with tool name create_repository) over stdio. Test it by sending echo '{"method": "tools/list", "id": "1"}' | python main.py.

Key features of GitHub MCP Server

Create a new GitHub repository with a required name
Set an optional description and privacy setting
Communicate via MCP protocol over stdin/stdout
Returns full repository details on success
Requires Python 3.8 or higher

Use cases of GitHub MCP Server

Automate repository creation during CI/CD workflows
Let an AI assistant create a GitHub repo on your behalf
Integrate repository provisioning into MCP‑capable applications

常见问题

What GitHub permissions are required?

The personal access token needs `repo` (for repository access) and `user` (for user information) scopes.

How do I set the GitHub token?

Set the token as an environment variable: `export GITHUB_TOKEN="your_github_personal_access_token"`.

What Python version is needed?

Python 3.8 or higher is required.

How is the server invoked?

The server runs as a subprocess communicating via JSON‑RPC 2.0 over stdio. MCP clients send `tools/list` and `tools/call` requests to discover and use the `create_repository` tool.

Is the repository private by default?

No, the `private` parameter defaults to `false`, making repositories public unless explicitly set to `true`.
