Creating an MCP server for Claude AI Assistant to interact with GitHub and demonstrate its use.
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, a powerful tool introduced by Anthropic, bridges the gap between your AI assistant and your GitHub repository. By setting up an MCP server, you can directly query your code, read/write files, generate insights, and step-up your development workflow. This setup allows for seamless integration between Claude AI Assistant and GitHub, enabling tasks such as displaying repositories, explaining projects, and creating new repositories. The process involves generating a GitHub Personal Access Token, installing and configuring the MCP server, and updating the Claude Desktop configuration.
Features
- Direct interaction with GitHub repositories through Claude AI.
- Ability to read and write files within the repository.
- Generate insights and explanations for projects.
- Create and manage repositories directly from Claude AI.
- Enhance development workflow with seamless AI integration.
