Try it

Call this server's tools from your browser. Nothing to install.

https://gitmanual.com/mcp

Requests go through mcptry because browsers can't call most MCP servers directly. Header values are sent to the server for that request only and are never stored or logged.

Tool list from our last check. Connect live to refresh it.

get_setup_manual Read-only

How to install or run a GitHub repository: whether it works on macOS, Windows or Linux (with reasons), ready-made downloads, install commands from the README, the parts it needs, and step-by-step commands to set it up from source. Facts come from the repo's own files, not guesses.

repostring, required

The GitHub repo: "owner/repo" or a github.com link, e.g. "ollama/ollama".

osstring

Only this system. Leave out for all three.

archstring

The user's CPU, for picking the right download (Apple Silicon is arm64).

Install

Pick your client. Values in capitals, like YOUR_TOKEN, are yours to fill in.
