auto-skill-mcp 0.0.1

One MCP server that auto-serves skills to agentic coding tools

auto-skill-mcp

One MCP server that auto-serves skills to agentic coding tools. Connect once, get expert guidance on any task.

Quick start

# Install globally
pip install auto-skill-mcp

# Or run directly with uv (no install needed)
uvx auto-skill-mcp

Auto-installer

Detect and configure your coding agents automatically:

# Scan for agents and preview changes
auto-skill-mcp install --dry-run

# Install to all detected agents
auto-skill-mcp install

# List detected agents and their config files
auto-skill-mcp list

# Remove from all agents
auto-skill-mcp uninstall

# Start the MCP server (default, same as `uvx auto-skill-mcp`)
auto-skill-mcp

The installer detects these agents across global and project scope:

• Global: Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, Roo Code, OpenCode, Gemini CLI, GitHub Copilot CLI
• Project: VS Code .vscode/mcp.json, JetBrains .idea/mcp.json, Claude Code .mcp.json, Cursor .cursor/mcp.json

Manual configuration

Add to your MCP config (claude_desktop_config.json, .cursor/mcp.json, .vscode/mcp.json, etc.):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "auto-skill-mcp": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["auto-skill-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

How it works

Your coding agent calls analyze_task() at the start of any task. The server classifies the task intent via TF-IDF matching, finds the most relevant skills from a bundled library (43 curated guides), and returns a structured plan with recommendations. No manual skill installation — one connection.

Tools

Tool	Description
analyze_task	[REQUIRED] Call first — classifies intent, returns plan + matched skills
get_skill	Load full SKILL.md body for a specific skill
list_skills	Browse all skills, optionally filtered by category
search_skills	Search skills by keyword or topic

Typical flow

1. agent calls analyze_task("review PR #42", goal="find security bugs")
   → task_type: "security", complexity: "medium"
   → recommends: security-audit, code-review, testing
2. agent calls get_skill("security-audit")
   → gets full guidance on security review process
3. agent uses the guidance to perform the task
