- Released: 2026-03-06
- Changelog: github/github-mcp-server@v0.31.0...v0.32.0
Breaking Changes
None.
Key Features
- Context Reduction: Tool outputs trimmed for
get_files,get_pull_request_review_comments,get_pull_request_reviews,add_issue_comments,list_pull_requests,list_tags,list_releases,list_issues— reduces token usage in LLM interactions - Copilot Tools in Default Toolset: Copilot-specific tools moved into the default
copilottoolset, available out of the box without additional configuration - MCP Apps UI Improvements: Better client support detection, clearer user confirmation prompts for issue/PR creation, smarter form skipping when issue updates include a state change
- New
get_check_runstool added (Get check runs github-mcp-server#1953) - Fix: Handle empty files in
get_file_contents(fix: Handle empty files in get_file_contents github-mcp-server#2042) - Fix: Gracefully handle numeric parameters passed as strings (Gracefully handle numeric parameters passed as strings github-mcp-server#2130)
- Fix: Fix SHA validation in
create_or_update_file(Fix SHA validation in create_or_update_file github-mcp-server#2134) - Fix: Stricter matching for github.com and ghe.com URLs (Stricter matching for github.com and ghe.com URLs github-mcp-server#2127)
- Fix: Panic fix when fetching resources fails due to network error (Fix panic when fetching resources fails due to network error github-mcp-server#1506)

Impact Assessment
- Risk: Low
- Affects: All workflows using the GitHub MCP Server (github tool in local Docker mode)
- Token savings: Context reduction across multiple tools will reduce token consumption in agent runs
- New tool:
get_check_runsis now available but not yet inDefaultReadOnlyGitHubTools— add if needed
