This skill should be used when the user asks to "build an MCP server", "create an MCP", "make an MCP integration", "wrap an API for Claude", "expose tools to Claude", "make an MCP app", or discusses building something with the Model Context Protocol. It is the entry point for MCP server development — it interrogates the user about their use case, determines the right deployment model (remote HTTP, MCPB, local stdio), picks a tool-design pattern, and hands off to specialized skills.

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/'build-mcp-server' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'build-mcp-server' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named build-mcp-server already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/thevibeworks/claude-code-docs' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '81faceeb5e86ea1635bc4beb592030e7f0df8aeb' -- 'content/github/claude-plugins-official/plugins/mcp-server-dev/skills/build-mcp-server' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'content/github/claude-plugins-official/plugins/mcp-server-dev/skills/build-mcp-server' ~/.agents/skills/'build-mcp-server' && 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/'build-mcp-server' ~/.claude/skills/'build-mcp-server' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
