Oss Issues tools (4)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts

Read from the package source without running it. The installed server may list more.

  • get_actionable_issue

    Fetch one issue, normalised for triage: template scaffolding stripped, only the fields a readiness judge needs (title, cleaned body, labels, author association, comments, state, url).

  • get_claim_status

    Is this issue already being worked on?

  • get_repo_context

    The repo's contribution rules: CONTRIBUTING.md presence/excerpt and whether issue templates are configured. Fetched once per repo and cached, since these rarely change.

  • list_new_issues

    New OPEN issues across the watch-list, pull requests excluded.

What the publisher says

From the Oss Issues repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

oss-issues-mcp

<!-- mcp-name: io.github.AmrMohamed17/oss-issues-mcp --> An MCP server exposing derived, triage-oriented GitHub issue tools — not a passthrough of the GitHub API.

Where GitHub's own MCP server returns raw API responses, this server does task-specific work: stripping issue-template scaffolding, resolving whether an issue is already claimed from multiple signals, and filtering a watch-list of repositories to what is new and open.

Tools

Security

  • Repository allowlist — the server refuses any repo not explicitly allowed.
  • Read-only — no write tools exist until a human-approval gate governs them.
  • Requires a fine-grained, read-only GITHUB_TOKEN.

Run
