A Model Context Protocol server for managing GitHub issues as Kanban using gh CLI
Github kanban mcp server connects Github Kanban to AI assistants that speak the Model Context Protocol. A Model Context Protocol server for managing GitHub issues as Kanban using gh CLI.
GitHub Kanban MCP Serverは、GitHubのissueをカンバンボード形式で管理し、LLMのタスク管理を効率化するためのModel Context Protocol（MCP）サーバーです。
Once connected, the assistant can call these 8 tools directly:
repo — GitHubリポジトリ名（必須）state — issueの状態（'open', 'closed', 'all'）labels — フィルタリングするラベルの配列title — issueのタイトル（必須）emoji — タイトルの先頭に付与する絵文字body — issueの本文assignees — アサインするユーザーの配列issue_number — issue番号（必須）The server is distributed via npm as @sunwood-ai-labs/github-kanban-mcp-server, so most clients can run it without a manual build step. Add it to your MCP client's configuration and restart the client to pick it up — the copy-paste configs for Claude Desktop, Claude Code and Cursor are on this page.
Developer-tool servers are usually the first ones people connect, because they turn "help me with this code" into an assistant that can actually read the repo and act on it. Github Kanban sits in that group, and the shape of its toolset — repo, state, labels among others — tells you what it is really for. Worth comparing against the other developer tools servers in this directory before you commit to one, since several overlap in scope but differ sharply in setup cost and permissions.
