* Add Playwright and GitHub third-party MCP plugins Wire Microsoft's local Playwright MCP (npx stdio) and GitHub's remote MCP server (PAT auth) into the marketplace, matching existing third_party plugin layout and manifests.

# GitHub
|
|
|
|
Cursor plugin that connects agents to [GitHub](https://github.com) through GitHub's official remote [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io/) server.
|
|
|
|
Work with repositories, issues, pull requests, code search, and Actions under the permissions of a personal access token you provide.
|
|
|
|
## Install
|
|
|
|
1. Open **Cursor Settings → Plugins**.
|
|
2. Search for **GitHub**.
|
|
3. Click **Install**, then set your GitHub personal access token (below).
|
|
|
|
Or run `/add-plugin github` in chat.
|
|
|
|
## MCP
|
|
|
|
```json
|
|
{
|
|
"mcpServers": {
|
|
"github": {
|
|
"type": "http",
|
|
"url": "https://api.githubcopilot.com/mcp/",
|
|
"headers": {
|
|
"Authorization": "Bearer ${GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN}"
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
}
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Setup
|
|
|
|
GitHub's remote MCP server authenticates with a **personal access token (PAT)**. Create one, then paste it into the plugin config.
|
|
|
|
### 1. Create a personal access token
|
|
|
|
1. Open https://github.com/settings/tokens.
|
|
2. Create either a **fine-grained** token or a **classic** token.
|
|
3. Grant only the scopes the agent needs. Typical choices:
|
|
- **Repositories / contents** — read or write code and files
|
|
- **Issues** — list, create, and update issues
|
|
- **Pull requests** — list, review, and manage PRs
|
|
- **Actions** — inspect workflow runs (if you want CI access)
|
|
- **Metadata** — always required on fine-grained tokens
|
|
4. Set an expiration you are comfortable with, then generate and copy the token.
|
|
|
|
Prefer a fine-grained token scoped to specific repositories when that is enough. Classic tokens with `repo` are broader and should be treated carefully.
|
|
|
|
### 2. Configure the plugin
|
|
|
|
In **Dashboard → Plugins → Configure**, set **GitHub personal access token** to the value you just created.
|
|
|
|
Tool calls run with that token's permissions. Rotate or revoke the token from GitHub Settings if it is ever exposed.
|
|
|
