3. Workflow 1 — Summarize All Open PRs

Use Warp’s agent to summarize pull requests:

Behind the scenes, the MCP server:

• Compiles summaries with clickable links

Perfect for daily PR triage or stand-ups.

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

3. Generates a linked list of new issues

This turns scattered notes into trackable tickets instantly.
