How to get tools of a particular tool_set, by using FastMCP client.

[suchith83]

Currently I am loading all tools from github remote server using FastMCP client like this:
config = {
"mcpServers": {
"github": {
"url": "https://api.githubcopilot.com/mcp/",
"headers": {"Authorization": f"Bearer {os.getenv('GITHUB_TOKEN')}"},
"transport": "streamable-http",
}
}
}

client_http = Client(config)

when i load the tools, all 91 tools are getting loaded.

But i need only some tools, of tool sets "users, repos, context". How can I get only these?

I tried by adding tool_filter, but it didn't work. again all the tools were loaded.
config = {
"mcpServers": {
"github": {
"url": "https://api.githubcopilot.com/mcp/",
"headers": {"Authorization": f"Bearer {os.getenv('GITHUB_TOKEN')}"},
"transport": "streamable-http",
"tool_filter": ['repos','context','users']
}
}
}

Can anyone help me how to get only a particular toolset of tools?

Hi @suchith83 it is actually documented in the repo: https://github.com/github/github-mcp-server/blob/main/docs/remote-server.md

You can use URLs, or you can use headers.
