github_get_code
Extract and combine code from GitHub repositories into a single file or directory structure. Use filters like file extensions, directories, or branches to streamline retrieval. Supports tree views and specific file fetching for precise code access.
Instructions
Retrieves code from a GitHub repository URL and combines it into a single file. The URL must start with "https://".
Query Parameters:
dir: Filter files by directory paths (comma-separated) Example: ?dir=src/components,tests/unit
ext: Filter files by extensions (comma-separated) Example: ?ext=ts,tsx,js

file: Specify a single file to retrieve (optional) Example: ?file=src/components/Button.tsx
Examples:
For GitHub tree URLs with branch: https://github.com/kazuph/pera1/tree/feature/great-branch This URL will be automatically parsed to extract the branch information.
For specific directory in a branch: url: https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/servers dir: src/fetch branch: develop
For a single file: url: https://github.com/username/repository file: src/components/Button.tsx
For directory structure with README files only: url: https://github.com/username/repository mode: tree
