MCP Server GitHub Gist — Manage Gists from Your AI Assistant

An MCP server to create, read, update, and search GitHub Gists without leaving your AI assistant. The official GitHub MCP server handles repos and issues — this one fills the Gist gap.

You: "Save this code snippet as a gist called 'auth-middleware.ts'"
AI:  ✅ Created secret gist: https://gist.github.com/abc123

Works with Claude Desktop, Cursor, and VS Code Copilot.

Tools

ToolWhat it does
gist_listList your gists (paginated)

gist_updateUpdate description or file contents
gist_deleteDelete a gist

Quick Start

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "github-gist": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-server-github-gist"],
      "env": {
        "GITHUB_TOKEN": "ghp_your_token_here"
      }
    }
  }
}
With Cursor

Add to your .cursor/mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "github-gist": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "mcp-server-github-gist"],
      "env": {
        "GITHUB_TOKEN": "ghp_your_token_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Authentication

Requires a GitHub personal access token with the gist scope.

  1. Go to GitHub Settings > Tokens
  2. Create a token with the gist scope
  3. Set it as GITHUB_TOKEN or GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN environment variable

Examples

Ask your AI assistant:

  • "List my recent gists"
  • "Create a gist with this code snippet"
  • "Show me gist abc123"
  • "Update the description of gist abc123"
  • "Delete gist abc123"
  • "Star this gist"
