oss-issues-mcp
An MCP server exposing derived, triage-oriented GitHub issue tools — not a passthrough of the GitHub API.
Where GitHub's own MCP server returns raw API responses, this server does task-specific work: stripping issue-template scaffolding, resolving whether an issue is already claimed from multiple signals, and filtering a watch-list of repositories to what is new and open.
Tools
Tool | Purpose |
| Fetch an issue, strip template furniture, return only triage-relevant fields |
(planned) | New open issues across a watch-list, pull requests excluded |
(planned) | Is this already being worked on? (assignees + linked PRs) |
(planned) | CONTRIBUTING.md and issue-template rules |
