Based on GitHub stars and recent activity, github-mcp-server by github (★ 33.6k, updated today) is the most popular actively maintained option on HookMCP, followed by jscpd and pipeshub-ai. The right choice depends on whether you need write access, a hosted (remote) endpoint, or a server that runs locally without an API key.
Yes — github-mcp-server by github, copilot-plugins by github are published by the vendor or the MCP project. Official servers are usually the safest first install.
Open the server's page on HookMCP, choose your client tab (Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code or Claude Code) and copy the config — 10 of the 22 servers here have one-click install links for Cursor and VS Code. Restart your AI app and the new tools appear automatically.
14 of 22 servers here mention API keys or tokens in their README; 8 don't mention any. Check each listing's Details panel, and pass keys as environment variables rather than pasting them into chat.
