Turn GitHub into MCP tools
Give your AI agent GitHub tools. Writ turns your GitHub workflows into authenticated MCP tools your agent can call, taking real actions on your own account.

} No GitHub MCP server yet? Build one in minutes
Record the GitHub task once, or describe it to an AI session, and Writ turns it into an MCP tool your agent can call, taking real actions on your own GitHub account.
- 1Record a GitHub action once
Open the recorder and open a repo on GitHub in a real browser. Writ captures the steps, login and 2FA included, into a workflow.
- 2Publish it as an MCP tool
One click exposes the workflow as an MCP tool with a typed input schema, alongside a REST endpoint. Your agent picks it by its description.
- 3Call it from any MCP client
Point Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, or any MCP client at your Writ server. The GitHub tool acts on your own account and returns structured output.
Browse supported MCP clients, see what's possible on workflows, or search for another site. Free to start. See pricing.
GitHub has no MCP server
Read-only website-to-MCP tools can summarize a GitHub page, but they can't do anything on it. Writ turns the GitHub workflows you build into MCP tools your agent calls to take real actions (search, extract, submit), authenticated, on your own GitHub account.
Writ runs on your own accounts, with your own credentials and data, on sites you are authorized to use.
GitHub tools your agent can call
Each tool is a real GitHub workflow with a typed input schema and structured output. Your agent picks the right one by its description.
github.get_repoReturn stars, open issues, and latest release for a repo.github.export_issuesExport issues matching a label or query.Example tool schema
{
"name": "github.get_repo",
"description": "Return stars, open issues, and latest release for a repo.",
"input_schema": {
"type": "object",
"properties": {
"query": { "type": "string", "description": "What to look up on GitHub." }
},
"required": ["query"]
}
} Add the server to any MCP client
Copy the config into your client and authenticate with a wt_ key. Tools appear automatically.

}
} Per-client setup. Step-by-step config for each client lives on the per-client pages: Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf.
Your agent acts on your own GitHub account
Writ signs into your own GitHub account through a Persona with 2FA for UI-only actions, or reads public repos with no login.
Use Writ on your own GitHub account and on public repos you have the right to access. Respect its Terms of Service.
