Remote GitHub MCP Server 🚀

Easily connect to the GitHub MCP Server using the hosted version – no local setup or runtime required.

URL: https://api.githubcopilot.com/mcp/

About

The remote GitHub MCP server is built using this repository as a library, and binding it into GitHub server infrastructure with an internal repository. You can open issues and propose changes in this repository, and we regularly update the remote server to include the latest version of this code.

The remote server has additional tools that are not available in the local MCP server, such as the create_pull_request_with_copilot tool for invoking Copilot coding agent.

Remote MCP Toolsets

Below is a table of available toolsets for the remote GitHub MCP Server. Each toolset is provided as a distinct URL so you can mix and match to create the perfect combination of tools for your use-case. Add /readonly to the end of any URL to restrict the tools in the toolset to only those that enable read access. We also provide the option to use headers instead.
