Per-user model: the api process injects a JSON X-PA-Credentials header on each call; this server reads github_token from it. Falls back to the GITHUB_TOKEN env var only when no header is present (bootstrap admin).
To configure as a Lume user:
Create a personal access token at https://github.com/settings/tokens. Fine-grained or classic; read-only scopes are sufficient (repo:read, read:org, etc.).
In Lume → Settings → Plugins → GitHub, paste the token. The server retrieves it on every tool call via the encrypted credential vault.
The plugin is intended to run as a sidecar to the PA-iOS docker-compose stack. To install:
Clone this repo next to your PA-iOS clone:
git clone https://github.com/bryarpatch36/mcp-github.gitMerge the compose.fragment.yml snippet into your PA-iOS/docker-compose.yml.
docker compose up -d --build mcp-github.
Install the plugin in Lume from Settings → Plugins → Discover.
The Lume plugin manifest lives at manifest.json and is fetched by Lume's marketplace catalog from https://raw.githubusercontent.com/bryarpatch36/mcp-github/main/manifest.json.
v1.0 — read-only (this release)
v1.1 — issue and PR comments behind Lume's two-phase confirmation protocol
v1.2 — issue and PR creation behind confirmation
Forks, branches, merges remain explicitly out of scope; those should run from a real shell, not an LLM tool call.
