Describe the bug

I have setup thegithub-mcp-server to run on the downloaded binary version0.1.1 via theReleases page (Note: not running through Docker) for my Mac OS system with the following VS Codemcp.json (workspace) configuration.

{"servers": {"github": {"command":"/Users/sayvai/mcp/github-mcp-server_Darwin_arm64/github-mcp-server","args": ["stdio"],"envFile":"/Users/sayvai/mcp/.env"    },}

The GitHub tools (30 tools discovered) are listed from the VS Code command palette, however after running the following chat prompt inAgent mode (usingClaude 3.7 Sonnet LLM):

#get_pull_request What was the last pull request opened on this repo?

Copilot attempts to run the tool, but encounters an immediate error in its response output:

Tool f1e_get_pull_request does not have an implementation registered.

Note: MyGITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN is set in the path that is referenced inenvFile property of themcp.json configuration above.

Also worth noting, is that the prompting with#list_pull_request tool on its own without additional prompt text returns the same error.

However, prompting with the tool#get_me works on its own in a prompt without further prompt text returning my account details.

Am i using the tools incorrectly in VS Code? Or could I improve my MCP Server configuration? 🤔

Affected version

0.1.1

Steps to reproduce the behavior

1. OpenVS Code Insiders
2. SelectAgent Mode
3. SelectClaude 3.7 Sonnet LLM
4. Enter prompt:#get_pull_request What was the last pull request opened on this repo?
5. Expected output: a summary of the last opened pull request in the repo
6. Actual output:Tool f1e_get_pull_request does not have an implementation registered.

Logs
