The GitHub Model Context Protocol (MCP) Server is a tool designed to provide relevant contextual information from large codebases to AI models that consume the Model Context Protocol. It operates as a local server, processing project files and transmitting context via a Unix socket, thereby addressing AI context window limitations. The server is built for seamless integration with AI models like Anthropic's Claude, which natively supports MCP. Developers can initiate the server using the `gh mcp server` command and leverage it with `gh code assist` for various code-related tasks. It allows for providing context based on file paths, diffs, and other project elements.
