How AI connects to GitHub
GitHub offers a REST API and a GraphQL API. Requests can authenticate with personal access tokens (fine-grained or classic), tokens issued to GitHub Apps or OAuth apps, or the built-in GITHUB_TOKEN inside GitHub Actions workflows. GitHub documents its own GitHub MCP server for use from IDEs, where users either sign in to GitHub in the editor or supply a personal access token; running the server locally requires Docker.
From the vendor's documentation: About the REST API - GitHub Docs, Authenticating to the REST API, Using the GitHub MCP server in your IDE
