release-intel-mcp

An MCP server that generates release intelligence from GitHub repository data. It correlates commits, pull requests, issues, and contributors between any two git refs and returns structured context ready for AI synthesis into release notes, changelogs, and release summaries.

Tools

get_changes_between_refs

Get all commits between two git refs enriched with associated PR metadata, author information, and linked issues.

FieldTypeDescription
ownerstringGitHub repository owner or organization
repostringGitHub repository name
basestringBase ref (older tag, branch, or SHA)
headstringHead ref (newer tag, branch, or SHA)

get_pull_requests_in_range

Get all merged PRs between two refs, automatically categorized by label into: breaking, feature, fix, docs, chore, dependencies, other.

Input fields are identical to get_changes_between_refs.

get_release_summary

Generate a structured release context object combining commit data, PR metadata, linked issues, contributor list, and aggregate statistics.

FieldTypeDescription
ownerstringGitHub repository owner
repostringGitHub repository name
from_tagstringPrevious release tag (base)
to_tagstringNew release tag or HEAD

Setup

All options require a GitHub personal access token with repo read access. Generate one at: https://github.com/settings/tokens

Option A: stdio (local process)

The standard approach: the MCP client spawns the server as a local subprocess.

Option B: HTTP (remote / stateless)

Run the server as an HTTP endpoint. Useful for remote clients, shared team deployments, or clients that prefer URL-based connections.

GITHUB_TOKEN=ghp_your_token npx @barissozudogru/release-intel-mcp --http

By default this starts on port 3000. Set PORT to change it.

Cursor (HTTP)
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "release-intel": {
      "url": "http://localhost:3000/mcp"
    }
  }
}
VS Code + Copilot (HTTP)
{
  "servers": {
    "release-intel": {

}
Continue.dev (HTTP)
mcpServers:
  - name: release-intel
    type: streamable-http
    url: http://localhost:3000/mcp

A health check endpoint is available at GET /health.

Option C: Docker

docker build -t release-intel-mcp .
docker run -p 3000:3000 -e GITHUB_TOKEN=ghp_your_token release-intel-mcp

The container starts in HTTP mode by default. The MCP endpoint is at http://localhost:3000/mcp.
