Description
Describe the feature or problem you’d like to solve
Provide a simplified installation and configuration experience to users with the GitHub cli already installed and configured.
Proposed solution
Publish the stdio server as a github extension that reuses the cli's token to authorize api actions. Installation instructions would be something like:
- Run
gh extension install github/gh-github-mcp-server
- Add the following in VS Code User Settings (JSON):
{"mcp": {"servers": {"github": {"command":"gh","args": ["github-mcp-server","stdio" ] } } }}
