Research direction

The payload names no files, functions or tests, so there is no entry point yet. Start by asking the maintainers which tool should return raw repository file contents and how it differs from the existing commit-based path. Done means an agreed design (tool name, inputs, ref handling) that a newcomer can then implement.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Version: Insiders

Feature: It would be nice, when the mcp-server could open direkt raw files from the repo to see directly the content. Recreate the content via commits leads to more load and it happens more often an error with recreating via commits
