Our Take
This is the canonical, official server for GitHub interaction. Its power lies not just in its breadth of features—from managing issues to handling pull requests—but in its authority. As the official tool, it will always have the most stable, secure, and up-to-date implementation. Any serious development agent must have this as a core component of its toolkit.
Quick Start
// Easiest setup for VS Code (or other compatible clients):
// Add this to your MCP server configuration.
