## About

GitHub's official server connects your AI to repositories, issues, pull requests, Actions and code search. The hosted endpoint uses your GitHub sign-in (OAuth) or a personal access token.

You can also run it locally with Docker and a token, as shown in the official docs. Give the token only the scopes you need.
