# Completing GitHub Setup
Since you need to authenticate with GitHub, here are the final steps to complete the setup:
## Option 1: Using GitHub CLI (Recommended)
1. **Authenticate with GitHub:**
```bash
gh auth login
```
Follow the prompts to authenticate with your GitHub account.
2. **Create the repository:**
```bash
cd local-dev-bridge-mcp
gh repo create local-dev-bridge-mcp --public --source=. --remote=origin --description="MCP server for local development - bridges Claude Desktop with your local file system" --push

## Option 2: Manual GitHub Setup
1. **Go to GitHub.com** and create a new repository:
- Repository name: `local-dev-bridge-mcp`
