Overview

MCP GitHub Repository Server is an MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that provides access to GitHub repository contents, allowing AI assistants to browse and read files from specified GitHub repositories.

To use the server, configure it with your GitHub Personal Access Token and repository details, then run the server to access files via the provided API endpoints.

  • Access any file in a GitHub repository via URI - List repository contents and navigate directories - Support for branch-specific file access - File contents served as plain text - Error handling for various issues
  1. AI assistants retrieving code files from GitHub repositories.
  2. Developers accessing documentation files directly from repositories.
  3. Automated tools listing and reading files in a repository for analysis.

Add to your AI client

Use these steps to connect MCP GitHub Repository Server in Cursor, Claude, VS Code, and other MCP-compatible apps. The same JSON appears in the Use with menu above for one-click copy.

Cursor

Add this to your .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root, then restart Cursor.

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "loglmhq-mcp-server-github-repo-mcp-mirror": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-loglmhq-mcp-server-github-repo-mcp-mirror"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop

Add this server entry to the mcpServers object in your Claude Desktop config, then restart the app.

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "loglmhq-mcp-server-github-repo-mcp-mirror": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-loglmhq-mcp-server-github-repo-mcp-mirror"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

Add this to your project's .mcp.json file. Claude Code will detect it automatically.

.mcp.json (project root)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "loglmhq-mcp-server-github-repo-mcp-mirror": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-loglmhq-mcp-server-github-repo-mcp-mirror"
      ]
    }
  }
}

VS Code (Copilot)

Add this to your .vscode/mcp.json file. Requires the GitHub Copilot extension with MCP support enabled.

.vscode/mcp.json

{
  "servers": {
    "loglmhq-mcp-server-github-repo-mcp-mirror": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-loglmhq-mcp-server-github-repo-mcp-mirror"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Add this to your Windsurf MCP config file, then restart Windsurf.

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "loglmhq-mcp-server-github-repo-mcp-mirror": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-loglmhq-mcp-server-github-repo-mcp-mirror"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Cline

Open Cline settings, navigate to MCP Servers, and add this server configuration.

Cline MCP Settings (via UI)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "loglmhq-mcp-server-github-repo-mcp-mirror": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-loglmhq-mcp-server-github-repo-mcp-mirror"
      ]
    }
