OpenCollab MCP server surfaces mergeable open source issues in 30 seconds

Prakhar built OpenCollab MCP after repeatedly finding that "good first issue" labels led to already-assigned, stale, or inaccessible GitHub issues. The server exposes 22 tools across four categories — Discovery, Evaluation, Issue Intel, and Profile — that an MCP client like Claude or Cursor chains together to find uncontested, complexity-rated issues matching the user's strongest language. A `generate_pr_plan` tool fetches the issue body, comments, `CONTRIBUTING.md`, repo structure, and default branch to give the AI everything needed to draft a real PR. All AI reasoning happens on the client side; OpenCollab only supplies clean GitHub data, making it free to run and fully local.
