This tool lets you control GitHub Actions using plain English commands. You can trigger workflows, manage issues, and review pull requests without writing complex API calls. It works as a bridge between AI agents and GitHub.
The GitHub Actions MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that provides a structured interface for managing GitHub repositories, workflows, issues, and pull requests. It is designed to be used with AI assistants and autonomous agents, allowing them to interact with GitHub Actions through natural language. The server exposes tools for fetching repository resources, triggering workflows, and generating prompts for common tasks like creating issues or reviewing pull requests. It can be run as an HTTP server or via stdio, and is containerized with Docker for easy deployment. The project is built with TypeScript and uses the official MCP SDK, Octokit for GitHub API interactions, and Express for HTTP serving. It requires a GitHub Personal Access Token with appropriate permissions.
