Release-notes-mcp Server

Release-notes-mcp is an MCP integration. A small, generic MCP server for combining GitHub/GitLab/Gitea releases into product release notes.

Packages and local setup

The published pypi package is release-notes-mcp, version 1.0.1. Its declared MCP transport is stdio.

The package declares RELEASE_MCP_CONFIG_JSON: Config (repos + contextSources) as inline JSON, e.g. {"repos":["myorg/web"],"contextSources":[]}. Use this for uvx/hub launches with no file to mount. Either this or RELEASE_MCP_CONFIG is required.; RELEASE_MCP_CONFIG: Absolute path to a config.json file (alternative to RELEASE_MCP_CONFIG_JSON). Used when mounting a real file, e.g. in Docker.; TOKEN: Auth token for the provider (GitHub PAT / GitLab / Gitea token). Optional for public repos.; PROVIDER: Forge to read releases from: github | gitlab | gitea. Defaults to github.; BASE_URL: API base URL — only for self-hosted GitLab or Gitea/Forgejo..

Before connecting

Check the maintainer’s instructions for account access, authentication and the supported client configuration. Once connected, inspect the tools your client receives and try a small task that matches the server’s stated purpose. The registry description does not include a verified, complete tool list.
