Git Mcp Server

Please install the `git-mcp-server` MCP server into my current AI client (that's you).

Required prerequisites (do these first if not already done):
- **Install Node.js** — Required to run the server via npx. The README specifies Node.js 20.0.0 or newer. (https://nodejs.org/)
- **Install Git** — Required by the current CLI-based git provider to perform git operations locally. (https://git-scm.com/)

Canonical MCP server config (stdio transport):
- command: `npx`
- args: ["@cyanheads/git-mcp-server@latest"]
- optional environment variables:
  - `MCP_TRANSPORT_TYPE`: Transport mode. Use stdio for MCP client config. (example: `stdio`)
  - `MCP_LOG_LEVEL`: Minimum log level: debug, info, warn, or error. (example: `info`)
  - `GIT_BASE_DIR`: Absolute path to restrict all git operations to a specific directory tree. (example: `<your-absolute-git-base-dir>`)
  - `LOGS_DIR`: Directory for server logs. Shown in the example config, though not documented in the configuration table. (example: `<your-logs-directory>`)
  - `GIT_AUTHOR_NAME`: Git author name override. Aliases: GIT_USERNAME, GIT_USER. Falls back to global git config if unset. (example: `<your-git-name>`)
  - `GIT_AUTHOR_EMAIL`: Git author email override. Aliases: GIT_EMAIL, GIT_USER_EMAIL. Falls back to global git config if unset. (example: `<your-git-email>`)
  - `GIT_SIGN_COMMITS`: Enable GPG/SSH signing for commits, merges, rebases, cherry-picks, and tags. (example: `true`)
  - `MCP_RESPONSE_FORMAT`: Response format: json, markdown, or auto. (example: `json`)
  - `MCP_RESPONSE_VERBOSITY`: Detail level: minimal, standard, or full. (example: `standard`)
  - `GIT_WRAPUP_INSTRUCTIONS_PATH`: Path to a custom markdown file with workflow instructions. (example: `<your-wrapup-instructions-path>`)
  - `MCP_AUTH_MODE`: Authentication mode: none, jwt, or oauth. (example: `none`)
  - `MCP_AUTH_SECRET_KEY`: Required when MCP_AUTH_MODE=jwt. Must be a 32+ character secret key. (example: `<your-jwt-secret>`)
  - `OAUTH_ISSUER_URL`: Required when MCP_AUTH_MODE=oauth. OIDC provider URL. (example: `<your-oidc-issuer-url>`)
  - `MCP_SESSION_MODE`: HTTP session mode: stateless, stateful, or auto. Primarily relevant for HTTP transport. (example: `auto`)
  - `STORAGE_PROVIDER_TYPE`: Storage backend: in-memory, filesystem, supabase, cloudflare-kv, or r2. (example: `in-memory`)
  - `OTEL_ENABLED`: Enable OpenTelemetry instrumentation. (example: `false`)

Note: The README supports both stdio and Streamable HTTP. The simplest portable client config is stdio via npx, so that is extracted here. For HTTP deployments, set MCP_TRANSPORT_TYPE=http and optionally configure MCP_HTTP_PORT, MCP_HTTP_HOST, and MCP_HTTP_ENDPOINT_PATH.

Add this MCP server to my current client's config in the correct format for you. If you need secrets or credentials I haven't provided, ASK me — do not invent values or leave raw placeholders. After adding it, tell me how to verify the server is connected.
