Details
From the project READMEMCP for GitHub PR, Issues, Tags and Releases
An MCP server that connects an LLM to GitHub's repository management features. It analyses pull requests, manages issues, and handles tags and releases, over stdio or HTTP, with a static token or GitHub OAuth2.
- Pull requests - fetch diffs, content, linked issues and CI status, create, comment, review, merge and update, close, retarget, label and flip draft status, read and correct posted comments
- Issues - create, update, list, search and assign, read a repository's labels, run milestones and file issues under them
- Releases - tag commits, publish releases, and list, correct or withdraw what is published
- Users - profile lookup, contribution activity and star growth via GraphQL
- Repositories - list what a user, an organisation or the caller owns, and read any file or directory tree at a branch, tag or SHA
The full tool list is in docs/tools.md.

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.
