Features

Installation

Installing via Smithery

To install github-pr-mcp for Claude Desktop automatically via Smithery:

npx -y @smithery/cli install github-pr-mcp --client claude

Installing Manually

  1. Clone the repository

  2. Install dependencies:

    npm install
    
  3. Create a .env file with your GitHub token:

    GITHUB_TOKEN=your_github_token_here
    

Usage

  1. Build the project:

    npm run build
    
  2. Run the server:

    npm start
    

    Or directly with a GitHub token:

    node dist/server.js your_github_token_here
    
  3. The server exposes a tool called get_pr_comments that accepts the following parameters:

    • owner: Repository owner (username or organization)
    • repo: Repository name
    • pull_number: Pull request number

Integration with Cursor

To integrate with Cursor, use the following command in Cursor's MCP server configuration:

node /path/to/dist/server.js your_github_token_here

Replace /path/to with the actual path to your project, and your_github_token_here with your GitHub personal access token.

Testing

A test client is included to verify the server functionality:

  1. Build the project:

    npm run build
    
  2. Run the test client:

    npm test
    

The test client will start the server, connect to it, and call the get_pr_comments tool with sample parameters.

Response Format

The server returns comments in the following format:
