The github plugin is an MCP server that connects an AI agent to GitHub's API for repository management. It lets the agent create issues, manage pull requests, review code, and search repositories on the user's behalf.

Unavailable. A Claude Code plugin. It installs in Claude Code, and ahel does not serve packs through its connector yet.

In Claude Code, run:

/plugin install github@claude-plugins-official

It installs from Anthropic's official plugin marketplace.
