Catalog of reusable response- and data-shaping techniques for MCP servers built on `@cyanheads/mcp-ts-core` — overflow handling, payload shaping, retrieval patterns. Use when a tool's payload is too large, awkwardly shaped, or expensive to retrieve and you want a proven pattern instead of inventing one. Each technique has a self-contained reference under `references/`.

Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

What this skill can do

Install

Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.

if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'techniques' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'techniques' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named techniques already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/jiayaoqijia/cryptoskill' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '0dc9f60ab1f3fcae24da49c4cef09c46c589f903' -- 'skills/mcp-servers/cyanheads-techniques' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'skills/mcp-servers/cyanheads-techniques' ~/.agents/skills/'techniques' && rm -rf "$d"; fi

Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'techniques' ~/.claude/skills/'techniques' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
