Tools/MCP Server

skill-get MCP Server

Integrate the Skills Marketplace directly into Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, and any MCP-compatible AI client.

What is MCP?

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is a standard way for AI models to interact with external tools and data sources. Using skill-get-mcp, Claude, Cursor, and other AI coding tools can search for skills and include them in their context—all without leaving your editor.

Think of it as "AI-native skill access": your coding assistant can search, read, and include relevant skills at the moment you need them.
