GitHub PR & Issue Management

Overview

This skill allows you to manage Pull Requests and Issues via the centralized MCP Server. For git operations (clone, pull, push, commit, branch), use the git-delegation skill instead.

Environment Variables

No environment variables needed — mcporter reads its config from the default path ./config/mcporter.json automatically.

How to Call GitHub Tools

Use mcporter CLI to call MCP Server tools:

# Method 1: key=value format (recommended for simple args)
mcporter \
  call mcp-github.<TOOL_NAME> key1=value1 key2=value2

# Method 2: JSON format with --args flag (for complex objects)
mcporter \
  call mcp-github.<TOOL_NAME> --args '{"key1":"value1","key2":"value2"}'

IMPORTANT:

• Always place --config BEFORE the call subcommand
• For JSON arguments, use the --args flag (not bare JSON string)
• Use mcp-github.<tool_name> selector format

Output

mcporter returns JSON output. Parse with jq for clean results.

Known Issues

• create_pull_request_review: Has a template processing bug. For adding PR review comments, use:
  • General PR comment: Use add_issue_comment
  • Comment on specific code line: Use create_pull_request_review_comment

---

Important Notes

• Transport: The MCP Server uses HTTP transport (configured in mcporter-servers.json)
• Auth: HTTP endpoint requires Authorization header with Bearer token (auto-configured)
• Rate limits: GitHub API rate limits apply. If you get 403 responses, wait and retry
• Permissions: Your MCP access is controlled by the Manager. If you get 403 from the MCP Server, the Manager may need to re-authorize your access
