About GitHub Stars MCP Server
GitHub Stars MCP Server is a Cloudflare-based MCP server that lets users search their starred GitHub repositories in natural language. It fetches starred repositories and their READMEs, stores them in Cloudflare R2, and indexes them with AutoRAG. It suits developers who want to query their own saved repositories.
Key features
- 01Fetches starred repositories and README content
- 02Semantic search through Cloudflare AutoRAG
- 03Weekly automatic updates via GitHub Actions
- 04Bearer token authentication for MCP access
- 05Streamable HTTP endpoint
Use cases
- 01Finding previously starred projects with natural language
- 02Letting an AI assistant retrieve relevant starred repositories
- 03Deploying personal starred-repository search as a remote MCP server
MCP support
The server exposes a search_github_stars tool to MCP clients for natural language search over starred repositories.
Configuration
Local server config is the same for every client. Copy it into your client’s MCP config file.
We haven’t collected a package or remote endpoint for this server. Follow the instructions in the project README.
Tools
Local servers expose tools only once running on your machine, and the maintainer has not provided a tool list.

This project creates a searchable database of your GitHub starred repositories by:
- Fetching all your starred repositories using the GitHub API
- Extracting and processing the README files from each repository
- Uploading the processed data to Cloudflare R2 storage
- Using Cloudflare AutoRAG to create embeddings for efficient searching
- Exposing a MCP Server that allows querying these repositories via natural language
Features
- Automatically fetches and processes GitHub starred repositories
- Scheduled weekly updates via GitHub Actions
- Stores repository metadata and README content
- Provides semantic search capabilities through Cloudflare AutoRAG
- Exposes a MCP-compatible API for integration with AI agents
Setup
Prerequisites
- Node.js (v22 recommended)
- PNPM package manager

New to MCP?
From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
