GitHub MCP servers: what to know before you pick one

What's the most popular MCP server for GitHub?

GitHub is published by the company behind GitHub, which makes it the safest first pick. On GitHub stars, GitHub (★ 34k), pare-github (★ 139) and github (★ 139) lead the 163 we list. GitHub is named for GitHub and passed every check we run.

Are GitHub MCP servers safe to install?

145 of the 163 passed every registry check. Reading the package code or tool descriptions of 129 of them turned up 8 with something to look at, from install scripts to obfuscated code. A clean result means none of our patterns matched, not that a server is safe.

Hosted or local: how do GitHub MCP servers run?

55 can run hosted, so you only paste a URL into Claude, Cursor or VS Code. The 116 that run locally ship as 70 npm, 27 PyPI, 8 MCPB bundle and 7 Docker packages.

How do I install GitHub in Claude Code?

To connect GitHub through GitHub, run this in a terminal: claude mcp add --transport http github-mcp-server https://api.githubcopilot.com/mcp/. Its page has the config for other clients too.

Is there an official GitHub MCP server?

Yes. GitHub is published under a namespace the official MCP Registry verified to the company. The other 162 come from 150 independent publishers.
