Oss Autopilot MCP server

Keep up with your open source pull requests. A Claude Code plugin, an MCP server, and a standalone CLI.

If you contribute to more than a couple of projects, PRs go stale without you noticing. A maintainer asks for a change, CI breaks after a rebase, a branch picks up a conflict, and you find out two weeks later.

OSS Autopilot checks every open PR you have on GitHub and sorts them into what needs you and what is waiting on someone else. For the ones that need you, it helps draft the reply, diagnose the CI failure, or rebase the branch. You approve each push and each comment before it goes out.

Requirements

• Node.js 22 or newer
• GitHub CLI installed and logged in (gh auth login), or a GITHUB_TOKEN in your environment
• For the plugin: Claude Code, plus npm and network access on first run (see below)

CI runs on Ubuntu and macOS. Windows is untested.

Quick start (Claude Code)

/plugin marketplace add costajohnt/oss-autopilot
/plugin install oss-autopilot@oss-autopilot

Restart Claude Code, then:

/setup-oss

Setup asks for your GitHub username, the languages and labels you care about, and how many PRs you want open at once. After that, run /oss whenever you want to check in.

About the first run. The plugin ships as source. The first /setup-oss or /oss installs dependencies and builds the CLI inside the plugin directory, so it needs npm (or pnpm) and a network connection, and it takes longer than later runs. If the build fails, see Troubleshooting.

Other ways to run it

MCP server (Cursor, Claude Desktop, Codex, Windsurf, any MCP client)

Save your GitHub username once:

npx @oss-autopilot/core@latest init <your-github-username>

Then add the server to your MCP client config:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "oss-autopilot": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["@oss-autopilot/mcp@latest"]
    }
  }
}

The MCP server exposes 30 tools, 6 resources, and 4 prompts. @latest means you get new releases automatically; pin a version (@oss-autopilot/mcp@5.7.4) if you would rather update on your own schedule.

Standalone CLI

Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.
