mcp-github-helper

GitHub PR Helper is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) service designed to streamline the process of creating GitHub Pull Requests (PRs) and conducting code reviews. By leveraging the GitHub CLI (gh), this service automates the creation of PRs based on user-provided details such as title, description, ticket number, and target branch. It also facilitates code reviews by allowing users to add comments directly to PRs. The service is designed to simplify the workflow by handling authentication automatically through the GitHub CLI, thus removing the need for manual token management. It supports various platforms and can be integrated into different development environments, making it a versatile tool for developers.
