Connect the GitHub MCP server to Warp to summarize open PRs, create issues from TODO comments, and automate repo management.

The GitHub MCP Server lets Warp agents read, write, and automate tasks in your GitHub repositories directly — no manual tab-switching required.

Section titled “Step 1. Get a GitHub Personal Access Token”
  1. Go to GitHub → Settings → Developer Settings → Personal Access Tokens

    • repo
    • read:user

  1. Open the MCP Panel via Command Palette (Cmd + P)
  2. Click Add Server
  3. Paste in your JSON config and the access token
  4. Save — and you’ll see the available endpoints immediately

Use Warp’s agent to summarize pull requests:

Behind the scenes, the MCP server:

  • Lists PRs
  • Fetches comments and reviews
  • Compiles summaries with clickable links

Perfect for daily PR triage or stand-ups.

Section titled “4. Workflow 2 — Create GitHub Issues from TODOs”

Use a saved prompt to automate issue creation.

Warp:

  1. Scans your codebase for TODO comments
  2. Calls create_issue for each one via MCP

This turns scattered notes into trackable tickets instantly.
