github-to-mcp-guide SKILL.md skillA
github-to-mcp-guide from nirholas/three.ws is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.
mdr add nirholas/three.ws/github-to-mcp-guide@git:20260501.87cefc9Pins git:20260501.87cefc9 in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Guide to converting GitHub repositories into MCP servers automatically. Extract tools from OpenAPI, GraphQL, and REST APIs for Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, and VS Code. AI-powered code generation creates type-safe TypeScript/Python MCP servers. Zero config — just paste a repo URL.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# GitHub-to-MCP Conversion Guide
Convert any GitHub repository into an MCP server automatically. The tool analyzes the repo's API surface (OpenAPI specs, GraphQL schemas, REST endpoints) and generates a working MCP server with type-safe tools.
## How It Works
```
GitHub Repo URL
│
▼
1. Clone & analyze repo
│
▼
2. Detect API surface
├── OpenAPI/Swagger specs
├── GraphQL schemas
├── REST route definitions
└── Function exports
│
▼
3. Generate MCP server
├── TypeScript or Python
├── Type-safe tool definitions
├── Parameter validation
└── Error handling
│
▼
4. Ready-to-use MCP server
```
## Quick Start
```bash
npx github-to-mcp https://github.com/owner/repo
```
This generates a ready-to-use MCP server in `./mcp-output/`.
## Supported API Formats
| Format | Detection | Example |
|--------|-----------|---------|
| **OpenAPI 3.x** | `openapi.json`, `swagger.yaml` | REST APIs with full schema |
| **GraphQL** | `schema.graphql`, introspection | Query/mutation → tools |
| **Express/Fastify** | Route scanning | `app.get('/api/...')` → tools |
| **Next.js API** | Route file detection | `app/api/*/route.ts` → tools |

How to install
mdr add nirholas/three.ws/github-to-mcp-guide@sha256:add2eda174e9250cThe line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260501.87cefc9, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
