I built a GitHub AI Agent that constantly monitors issues and updates its developers in a specific GitHub repository.
Made it demoable, added demo instructions and fixed some typos. Readt re reship.

Finally finished writing my README. Now, it’s time to ship my project. I don’t know if it will be good or not but I will try. Let’s see what happens.
Hello, i don’t know but I am struggling a lot. The tool I use is n8n which is an open-source AI Automation tool. But it has many problems and especially I face more struggles because of my server being rented. Firstly, I wanted to use MCP server and built it on my own but unfortunately due to some errors and proxies on which I had no control over, i was unable to connect it. Then, I directly connected it directly my main AI Agent node.
Hello, I worked for about 2 and a half hours trying to write a Python script to parse the data to only find out that Python isn’t installed in the n8n server. I use a student-only n8n server which charges $17 per 3 years. Python3 wasn’t installed there. So, I had to find an alternative and used a Set Node instead. And also added an AI Agent and build a MCP Server so the AI Agent can use the tools without creating a mess in the original workflow.
Built the initial phase successfully after debugging and learning that AI Model cannot take raw JSON and you have to stringify it.
