github-issue-master

Overview

github-issue-master is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for direct GitHub issue management. It equips AI models with authenticated tools to fetch issues, apply triage labels, generate weekly activity summaries, post comments on issues or PRs, create new issues, and close resolved ones—all via GitHub's REST API. Provide a GitHub token for seamless repository access.

Key Capabilities

• list_issues: Fetch a list of issues from any GitHub repository.
• triage_issue: Automatically label a specific issue (e.g., 'bug', 'enhancement', 'question').
• weekly_digest: Retrieve an itemized summary of the last 7 days' activity, including updated issues, PRs, and commits.
• add_comment: Post comments on GitHub issues or pull requests.
• create_issue: Create new issues with custom title, body, labels, assignees, and milestones.
• close_issue: Close a specific issue in a repository.

Use Cases

1. Run list_issues to scan for open bugs, then chain triage_issue to label them and add_comment with AI-generated fixes.
2. Call weekly_digest to review recent repo changes, spot patterns, and create_issue for overlooked problems like stalled PRs.
3. Parse CI/CD failure logs to create_issue with stack traces in the body, auto-triage via triage_issue, and add_comment with debugging steps.
4. Analyze issues with list_issues, decide resolutions, then close_issue and add_comment summarizing the fix.

Who This Is For

• Developers building MCP agents for GitHub automation.
• Engineering teams handling issue triage and repo monitoring.
• AI developers creating bots for issue creation, commenting, and closure.
