MCP Skills Discovery

Provides automatic access to comprehensive MCP server development, tool design, and testing skills.

When This Skill Activates

This skill auto-activates when you're working with:

• Building MCP servers (TypeScript or Python)
• Designing MCP tools, resources, or prompts
• Choosing MCP transports (stdio, SSE, Streamable HTTP)
• Implementing JSON-RPC 2.0 over MCP
• Testing MCP servers with Inspector or automated tests
• Debugging MCP protocol or transport issues
• Publishing or deploying MCP servers

Available Skills

Integration with Other Skills

MCP skills commonly combine with:

API skills (discover-api):

• MCP servers wrapping REST or GraphQL APIs
• Authentication for MCP tool backends

Testing skills (discover-testing):

• Comprehensive test strategies
• Contract testing patterns

Progressive Loading

This gateway skill (~170 lines, ~1.5K tokens) enables progressive loading:

• Level 1: Gateway loads automatically (you're here now)
• Level 2: Load category INDEX.md (~2.5K tokens) for full overview
• Level 3: Load specific skills (~2-3K tokens each) as needed

Total context: 1.5K + 2.5K + skill(s) = 4-8K tokens vs 12K+ for everything.
