Best first use case
Use this category when the agent has a clear task that needs structured access, not as a default permission bundle for every chat.
DevTools MCP Servers
GitHub MCP workflows connect AI assistants to repository context, issues, pull requests, and collaboration tasks without pasting everything into chat.
Start with the servers below, then review permissions, credentials, and client-specific setup before connecting production resources.
Repository management, file operations, and search.

npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-everythingUse this category when the agent has a clear task that needs structured access, not as a default permission bundle for every chat.
Install one server, confirm the client can discover tools, run a harmless test, and document any tokens or paths as placeholders only.
Prefer read-only access first, avoid broad production credentials, and require review before write-capable or external-facing actions.
Before production access
Turn your selected github servers into a reviewable deployment decision with permission scoring, prompt-injection checks, and rollout gates.
