GitHub MCP Server

The GitHub MCP server is GitHub's official Model Context Protocol integration, giving AI assistants like Claude and Cursor direct, authenticated access to the GitHub platform and its full developer surface. With this MCP server, you can ask your AI to read and write repository files, create and merge branches, open and review pull requests, comment on and close issues, trigger GitHub Actions workflows, search across code repositories with GitHub's code search, and inspect commit history โ€” all through natural-language prompts in your AI interface. Developers use it to supercharge code review workflows, automate issue triage, generate PR descriptions from diffs, bulk-update repository settings, and wire AI agents into CI/CD pipelines. The GitHub MCP server connects via a GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN environment variable with scopes for the operations you need, keeping authentication clean and auditable. Install with Docker: `docker run -e GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN=<token> ghcr.io/github/github-mcp-server` โ€” or configure it as a remote MCP server in Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and Cline. With over 8,000 GitHub stars, it is the most widely deployed official code-platform MCP server and the reference implementation for AI-native GitHub automation.

AWS MCP Servers

AWS Labs maintains a monorepo of specialized, open-source MCP servers that bring AWS best practices directly into AI-assisted development workflows, spanning infrastructure, data, AI/ML, cost management, and healthcare/life-sciences domains. Rather than one monolithic server, the project ships dozens of focused servers you install individually depending on the task: the AWS Documentation MCP Server for real-time official docs and API references, dedicated servers for Terraform/CDK/CloudFormation infrastructure-as-code, container and serverless platforms (ECS, EKS, Lambda), SQL/NoSQL databases (DynamoDB, RDS, Aurora), search and analytics (OpenSearch), messaging (SQS/SNS), and cost/billing analysis. Most servers install via uvx with a package name like awslabs.aws-documentation-mcp-server, run locally over stdio, and use standard AWS credential chains (IAM roles, profiles, or access keys) rather than exposing raw account credentials to the model. AWS also now offers a managed, remote "AWS MCP Server" (in preview) that combines full API coverage with pre-built agent SOPs, syntactically validated API calls, and complete CloudTrail audit logging for teams that want centralized governance instead of running servers locally. The Getting Started with Kiro/Cursor/VS Code/Claude Code sections in the repo provide one-click install configs for each server, making it straightforward to wire up only the AWS services a given project actually touches.
