Hi everyone
While integrating the GitHub MCP Server (github.com/github/github-mcp-server) within a Kilocode project, I noticed that the current configuration seems to only provide visibility into the current project repository.
In our setup, we often work in a multi-repository environment (for example: frontend, backend, shared-libs, devops-iac), and it would be extremely useful if the GitHub MCP Server could also access or reference other repositories within the same organization.
I’d like to ask:
Is there any built-in way or upcoming feature to allow cross-repository visibility (e.g., listing issues, reading files, or analyzing dependencies across multiple repos)?
If not, would you recommend creating multiple GitHub MCP instances (one per repository), or is there a plan to support a multi-repo configuration (via a GitHub App or custom MCP meta-server)?
This would be very helpful for teams working with distributed architectures and shared components.
Thanks in advance for your insights and guidance! 🙏
