But why would we need an MCP server for a github repo? Sorry, I am unable to understand the use case.

Same here. Can't we just give the repo URL in Cursor/Windsurf to use the search tool to get the context? :thinking:

As an example, some repositories have huge documents (in some cases a few MBs) that agents won't process today. GitMCP offers semantic search out of the box.
