# GitHub

> Connect the GitHub MCP server with your own OAuth app.

The GitHub remote MCP server lets your skills and agents work with repositories,
issues, and pull requests. Connect it with your own GitHub OAuth app.

Connector URL: `https://api.githubcopilot.com/mcp`

<Note>
  Your Client Secret is stored in your **OS credential store** — Keychain on macOS,
  Credential Manager on Windows — and is **never sent to Viorant's servers**. See
  [Bring your own OAuth app](/connectors/oauth-apps) for the general flow.
</Note>

## Create the OAuth app

<Steps>
  <Step title="Open your OAuth apps">
    In GitHub, go to **Settings → Developer settings → OAuth Apps** and click **New
    OAuth App**.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Set the callback URL">
    Give the app a name and a homepage URL. For **Authorization callback URL**, paste
    the **redirect URI** the Hub shows you in the connector setup.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Get the credentials">
    Register the app, then copy the **Client ID** and generate a **Client Secret**.
  </Step>
</Steps>

<Note>
  GitHub OAuth apps don't set scopes up front — you approve the access the connector
  requests when you sign in.
</Note>

## Connect in the Hub

<Steps>
  <Step title="Add the connector">
    Add a connector with the URL `https://api.githubcopilot.com/mcp`.
  </Step>

  <Step title="Paste your credentials and connect">
    Enter your **Client ID** and **Client Secret**, click **Connect**, and approve
    access in your browser.
  </Step>
