When you encounter a GitHub URL (github.com), do NOT use the webfetch tool. Instead use the GitHub MCP server tools:
- Repository file/directory contents: use github_get_file_contents
- Issues: use github_issue_read or github_search_issues
- Pull requests: use github_pull_request_read or github_search_pull_requests
- Commits: use github_get_commit or github_list_commits
- Releases: use github_get_latest_release or github_list_releases
Parse the URL to extract owner, repo, path, and ref, then call the appropriate MCP tool. The webfetch tool returns 404 or garbled HTML for most GitHub pages.
