+# GitHub Configuration
+
+This directory contains GitHub-specific configuration files and scripts for the Pyroscope repository.
+
+## Contents
+
+### Workflows (.github/workflows/)
+
+All GitHub Actions workflows are stored in the `workflows/` subdirectory. Key workflows include:
+
+- **ci.yml**: Main continuous integration workflow with build, test, and lint jobs
+- **frontend.yml**: Frontend-specific testing and building
+- **release.yml**: Release automation
+- **helm-ci.yml**: Helm chart validation
+- **test-examples.yml**: Example application testing
+
+See [Workflow Troubleshooting Guide](docs/WORKFLOW_TROUBLESHOOTING.md) for detailed information.
+
+### Scripts (.github/scripts/)
+
+Utility scripts for workflow operations:
+
+- **workflow-health-check.sh**: Diagnostic script to check workflow environment and dependencies
+
+### Documentation (.github/docs/)
+
+- **WORKFLOW_TROUBLESHOOTING.md**: Comprehensive guide for diagnosing and fixing workflow issues
+
+### MCP Server Configuration
+

+
+## Quick Health Check
+
+Run the workflow health check script to diagnose common issues:
+
+```bash
+.github/scripts/workflow-health-check.sh
+```
+
+This script will check:
+- ✓ GitHub Actions environment
+- ✓ Required tools (Go, Node, Yarn, Docker, Git)
+- ✓ Go version compatibility (1.24.6+ required, 1.24.9 toolchain)
+- ✓ Node version compatibility (Node 20+ required)
+- ✓ Network connectivity
+- ✓ Docker daemon status
+- ✓ Repository structure
+- ✓ Environment variables
+- ✓ Runner compatibility
+
+## Common Startup Issues
+
+### Issue #100009: Workflow Fails to Start
+
+**Symptoms:**
+- Workflow shows "action_required" status
+- Jobs fail before running any steps
+- Missing or skipped job dependencies
+
+**Common Causes:**
+
+1. **Conditional Job Dependencies**
+   - Job A depends on Job B, but Job B is skipped due to conditions
+   - Example: `deploy-dev` needs `build-push`, but `build-push` only runs on main branch
+
+   **Solution:** Ensure dependent jobs have compatible conditions:
+   ```yaml
+   build-push:
+     if: github.event_name == 'push' && github.repository == 'grafana/pyroscope'
+   
+   deploy-dev:
+     needs: [build-push]
+     # IMPORTANT: Must have same or more restrictive condition
+     if: github.event_name == 'push' && github.repository == 'grafana/pyroscope' && github.ref == 'refs/heads/main'
+   ```
+
+2. **Missing Vault Secrets**
+   - Workflows using `grafana/shared-workflows/actions/get-vault-secrets` require organization secrets
+   - Forks and non-Grafana repos don't have access
+
+   **Solution:** Add conditional checks:
+   ```yaml
+   - name: Get secrets
+     if: github.repository == 'grafana/pyroscope'
+     uses: grafana/shared-workflows/actions/get-vault-secrets@...
+   ```
+
+3. **Custom Runner Unavailable**
+   - Workflows specify `ubuntu-x64-large`, `ubuntu-x64-small`, etc.
+   - These are only available in the Grafana organization
+
+   **Solution:** Use fallback logic (already implemented):
+   ```yaml
+   runs-on: ${{ github.repository_owner == 'grafana' && 'ubuntu-x64-large' || 'ubuntu-latest' }}
+   ```
+
+4. **Missing GitHub App Token**
+   - Some workflows require GitHub App credentials
+   - Unavailable in forks
+
+   **Solution:** Skip steps that require app tokens in forks:
+   ```yaml
+   - name: Generate token
+     if: github.repository == 'grafana/pyroscope'
+     ...
+   ```
+
+## Environment Requirements
+
+### Required Tools
+
+| Tool | Version | Purpose |
+|------|---------|---------|
+| Go | 1.24.6+ (toolchain 1.24.9) | Backend compilation |
+| Node.js | 20+ | Frontend build |
+| Yarn | Latest | Package management |
+| Docker | Latest | Container builds |
+| Git | Latest | Version control |
+
+### Linux Dependencies
+
+Standard Ubuntu runners include most dependencies. For custom builds, ensure:
+
+```bash
+# Build essentials
+sudo apt-get update
+sudo apt-get install -y build-essential git curl
+
+# Go (if not using setup-go action)
+wget https://go.dev/dl/go1.24.9.linux-amd64.tar.gz
+sudo tar -C /usr/local -xzf go1.24.9.linux-amd64.tar.gz
+
+# Node.js (if not using setup-node action)
+curl -fsSL https://deb.nodesource.com/setup_20.x | sudo -E bash -
+sudo apt-get install -y nodejs
+
+# Yarn
+npm install -g yarn
+```
+
+## Network Configuration
+
+### Required Connectivity
+
+Workflows need access to:
+
+| Service | URL | Purpose |
+|---------|-----|---------|
+| GitHub | github.com | Source code, actions |
+| Go Proxy | proxy.golang.org | Go dependencies |
+| npm Registry | registry.npmjs.org | Node dependencies |
+| Docker Hub | hub.docker.com | Container images |
+| Grafana Vault | (internal) | Secrets (Grafana org only) |
+
+### Port Requirements
+
+| Port | Service | Used By |
+|------|---------|---------|
+| 4040 | Pyroscope Server | Local development |
+| 80/443 | HTTP/HTTPS | External dependencies |
+| 9090 | Prometheus | Monitoring (if enabled) |
+
+### Firewall Configuration
+
+Ensure outbound HTTPS (443) is allowed for:
+- GitHub Actions runner → GitHub API
+- GitHub Actions runner → Package registries
+- GitHub Actions runner → Container registries
+
+## Debugging Failed Workflows
+
+### Step 1: Check Workflow Status
+
+```bash
+# View recent workflow runs
+gh run list --limit 10
+
+# Get details of a specific run
+gh run view <run-id>
+
+# View logs
+gh run view <run-id> --log
+```
+
+### Step 2: Enable Debug Logging
+
+Add secrets to your repository:
+- `ACTIONS_RUNNER_DEBUG`: true
+- `ACTIONS_STEP_DEBUG`: true
+
+This provides verbose logging for all workflow steps.
+
+### Step 3: Check Job Dependencies
+
+Review the workflow graph in GitHub Actions UI to identify:
+- Skipped jobs
+- Failed job dependencies
+- Conditional execution paths
+
+### Step 4: Reproduce Locally
+
+```bash
+# Clone the repository
+git clone https://github.com/FuzzysTodd/pyroscope.git
+cd pyroscope
+
+# Run health check
+.github/scripts/workflow-health-check.sh
+
+# Test Go build
+make go/test
+
+# Test frontend build
+yarn install
+yarn build
+
+# Test linting
+make lint
+```
+
+### Step 5: Check for Tool Version Mismatches
+
+```bash
+# Check installed versions
+go version          # Should be 1.24.6+
+node --version      # Should be v20+
+yarn --version      # Should be latest
+docker --version    # Should be latest
+
+# Check go.mod requirements
+cat go.mod | grep "^go "
+```
+
+## Fork-Specific Issues
+
+When running workflows in a forked repository:
+
+### Expected Behavior
+
+| Workflow | Fork Behavior |
+|----------|---------------|
+| ci.yml | ✓ Runs (most jobs) |
+| frontend.yml | ✓ Runs fully |
+| helm-ci.yml | ✓ Runs fully |
+| test-examples.yml | ✓ Runs fully |
+| release.yml | ✗ Skipped (requires secrets) |
+| backport.yml | ✗ Skipped (requires GitHub App) |
+| deploy-dev | ✗ Skipped (requires vault access) |
+
+### Jobs That May Fail in Forks
+
+1. **build-push** (ci.yml)
+   - Requires: Docker Hub credentials
+   - Fallback: Use `build-image` job instead
+
+2. **deploy-dev** (ci.yml)
+   - Requires: Argo Workflows access
+   - Fallback: Skip deployment
+
+3. **backport-pr** (backport.yml)
+   - Requires: GitHub App token
+   - Fallback: Manual backporting
+
+### Solutions for Fork Contributors
+
+1. **Run tests locally first:**
+   ```bash
+   make test
+   make lint
+   ```
+
+2. **Use PR to upstream:**
+   - Push to your fork
+   - Create PR to grafana/pyroscope
+   - Workflows will run with full access in the PR context
+
+3. **Skip failing jobs:**
+   - Most essential checks (tests, linting) work in forks
+   - Deployment and integration jobs can be ignored
+
+## MCP Server Configuration
+
+Model Context Protocol (MCP) enables AI assistants to interact with the Pyroscope codebase and development environment.
+
+### Setup
+
+1. **Install MCP client** (e.g., Claude Desktop, Cline VSCode extension)
+
+2. **Configure MCP servers:**
+   
+   Copy the configuration template:
+   ```bash
+   cp .github/mcp-server-config.json ~/.config/mcp/pyroscope-servers.json
+   ```
+
+3. **Update configuration:**
+   
+   Edit the configuration file to set:
+   - `PYROSCOPE_URL`: Your Pyroscope server URL (default: http://localhost:4040)
+   - `GITHUB_TOKEN`: Your GitHub personal access token
+   - File paths: Update paths to match your setup
+
+4. **Available MCP servers:**
+
+   - **pyroscope-dev**: Interact with Pyroscope server API
+   - **github**: GitHub repository operations
+   - **filesystem**: File system access for code navigation
+
+### MCP Server Configuration File
+
+Location: `.github/mcp-server-config.json`
+
+```json
+{
+  "mcpServers": {
+    "pyroscope-dev": {
+      "command": "node",
+      "args": ["/path/to/pyroscope-mcp-server/build/index.js"],
+      "env": {
+        "PYROSCOPE_URL": "http://localhost:4040",
+        "LOG_LEVEL": "info"
+      }
+    },
+    "github": {
+      "command": "npx",
+      "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-github"],
+      "env": {
+        "GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN": "${GITHUB_TOKEN}"
+      }
+    },
+    "filesystem": {
+      "command": "npx",
+      "args": ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "."]
+    }
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Usage Examples
+
+Once configured, you can:
+
+1. **Query Pyroscope profiles** through your AI assistant
+2. **Search code** across the repository
+3. **Navigate file structure** efficiently
+4. **Get context-aware** coding suggestions
