TOOLS

list_repositories — paginated repo listing with visibility, language, and stars.
get_repository — detailed metadata with parallel language and topic API calls via tokio::join!.
get_repository_tree — recursive or shallow tree with directory/file icons and size annotations.
get_file_contents — base64 decode with binary, symlink, and directory detection.
get_readme — README fetch and in-place decode.
search_code — GitHub code search with optional repo scoping and GitHub search syntax support.
list_commits — history with SHA, author, date, and message.
list_pull_requests / list_issues — open/closed/all filtering; issues tool filters out PRs automatically.
list_local_repos — scans local git directories for remote origin, last commit, README presence, and dirty state.

IMPLEMENTATION

Single-binary async Rust using rmcp 0.3 (MCP protocol) over stdio transport.
Parallel API calls where responses are independent — tokio::join! on repo metadata, language breakdown, and topics in one round-trip.
Base64 decode strips API whitespace before decoding and rejects non-UTF-8 binaries with a clean error.
Zero configuration — GITHUB_TOKEN from environment, default branch auto-resolved from the API when not supplied.
