## Installation

### Option 1: Install Bundle (Claude Desktop)
### Option 1: Use Remote URL

Add as a connector in Claude — no installation needed:

1. Go to **claude.ai → Settings → Connectors**
2. Click **"Add custom connector"**
3. Enter URL: `https://github-mcp.maganuriyev.workers.dev/mcp`
4. (Optional) For higher rate limits (5,000 req/hr instead of 60), add a GitHub Personal Access Token:
- Go to [github.com → Settings → Developer settings → Personal access tokens → Fine-grained tokens](https://github.com/settings/personal-access-tokens/new)
- Set a descriptive name (e.g. `github-mcp`) and expiration
- Under **Repository access**, select **"Public Repositories (read-only)"**
- No additional permissions needed — the default read-only access to public repos is sufficient
- Click **Generate token** and copy it
- Back in Claude, expand **Advanced settings** and paste the token into **"OAuth Client Secret"**

Works out of the box without a PAT — unauthenticated requests use the server's default GitHub token.

### Option 2: Install Bundle (Claude Desktop)

1. Download `github-mcp.mcpb` from the [latest release](https://github.com/maganuriyev/github-mcp-worker/releases)
2. Double-click the `.mcpb` file — Claude Desktop installs it automatically
