Overview gh-mcp eliminates the manual setup of GitHub Personal Access Tokens for MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers. It automatically retrieves your GitHub credentials from the gh CLI and launches a bundled github-mcp-server binary with proper authentication. Prerequisites - GitHub CLI ( gh ) installed and authenticated ( gh auth login ) Platform Support gh-mcp runtime support is limited to platforms where bundled github-mcp-server archives are available: - darwin/amd64 - darwin/arm64 - linux/386 - linux/amd64 - linux/arm64 - windows/386 - windows/amd64 - windows/arm64 Release assets may still include additional targets produced by cli/gh-extension-precompile (for example freebsd- and linux/arm ), but those targets are not supported by gh-mcp runtime because no bundled github-mcp-server binary is available for them. Installation Updating To update the extension to the latest version: Usage MCP Configuration Add this to your MCP client configuration: With environment variables: Using with Claude Code To add this as an MCP server to Claude Code: With environment variables: Running Directly You can also run the server directly: This will: 1. 🔐 Retrieve your GitHub credentials from gh CLI 2. 📦 Extract and verify the bundled MCP server binary 3. 🚀 Start the MCP server with your credentials 4. Stream I/O between your terminal and the server proces","default_branch":null,"files":null,"tree":[],"storefront":"/r/shuymn","claimed":false,"request_supported":{"post":"https://gitbuyer.com/r/shuymn/gh-mcp/request-supported","requests":0},"note":"indexed from public GitHub; nothing is for sale on this page.
