What git operations does this MCP server support?

Pare Git supports status, log, diff, branch management, commit, and push operations. All responses are returned as typed JSON for easy parsing and integration into automated workflows.

How do I install and run Pare Git?

Install via npm with `npx @paretools/git@0.8.1`. The server runs over stdio transport, so it integrates directly with MCP-compatible clients like Claude Desktop or custom applications.

Do I need to authenticate or configure credentials?

Pare Git operates on your local git repository and uses your existing git configuration (SSH keys, credentials stored in git config). No additional authentication setup is required if your git environment is already configured.

Can I use this server to automate multi-step git workflows?

Yes. Since all operations return structured JSON, you can chain commands together—for example, check status, create a branch, commit, and push—all within a single AI conversation or script.

What happens if a git command fails?

Errors are returned as typed JSON responses, allowing your client to parse and handle failures programmatically rather than relying on exit codes or stderr parsing.
