### GitHub MCP Server
The project uses GitHub's MCP server for development tasks. The server runs in a Docker container and is automatically configured when you open the project in a devcontainer.
### Quick Start
#### Configuration
- The MCP server uses GitHub authentication via Personal Access Token
- Token is stored securely in `.devcontainer/.env` (not committed to repository)
- GitHub CLI is installed in the devcontainer for easier authentication management
- Container health monitoring is configured
1. **Prerequisites**
- Docker Desktop installed and running
- VS Code with Remote - Containers extension
- GitHub account with Personal Access Token (PAT)
#### Usage
The MCP server will automatically start when you open the project in a devcontainer. If you need to manually authenticate:
1. Run `gh auth login` in the terminal
2. Follow the prompts to authenticate with your GitHub account
2. **Setup Steps**
- Clone this repository
- Copy `.devcontainer/.env.example` to `.devcontainer/.env` and add your GitHub PAT
- Open in VS Code and select "Reopen in Container" when prompted

## Development Container Setup
### GitHub Personal Access Token
Before using the development container, you'll need a GitHub Personal Access Token (PAT) with the following permissions:
- `repo` (Full control of private repositories)
- `read:packages` (Download container images)
- `write:packages` (Upload container images)
- `delete:packages` (Optional: manage container versions)
- `workflow` (GitHub Actions integration)
### Using the Development Container
#### Command Line Interface
You can build and start the development container using the devcontainer CLI:
```bash
# Build the container
devcontainer build .
# Start the container (with post-create command)
devcontainer up --workspace-folder .
# Start the container (skip post-create)
devcontainer up --workspace-folder . --skip-post-create
```
#### VS Code
1. Open the project in VS Code
2. Press F1 and run "Dev Containers: Rebuild and Reopen in Container"
- To skip post-create steps: Press F1 and run "Dev Containers: Rebuild Container Without Cache"
### Troubleshooting
- If GitHub authentication fails, ensure your PAT is correctly set in `.devcontainer/.env`
- For network issues, try rebuilding the container with `--no-cache` option
- Check the VS Code "Dev Containers" output panel for detailed logs
