🌷 How to participate:

1. Fork the starter repo
2. Complete the missing code to connect your agent to the GitHub MCP server

Simple but fun exercise! I wasn't aware of the potential of MCP servers until I started this challenge, many ideas have come up!!

For those taking the challenge, be creative when writing your prompt, since the LLM was hallucinating easily, finding typos that don't exist in the README.md.
