#### Advanced Configuration Parameters

* **Enabled Toolsets**: Select the specific GitHub toolsets to enable. If no toolsets are selected, GitHub's default toolsets 'context', 'repos', 'issues', 'pull_requests', and 'users' will be enabled.
  For detailed documentation on available toolsets, refer to: [GitHub MCP Tools](https://github.com/github/github-mcp-server?tab=readme-ov-file#tools)

* **Enable Read-Only Tools**: When enabled, the integration will only use read-only tools, preventing any write operations to GitHub.
