# Skilljack MCP
An MCP server that jacks [Agent Skills](https://agentskills.io) directly into your LLM's brain.
## Installation
```bash
npm install @skilljack/mcp
```
Or run directly with npx:
```bash
npx @skilljack/mcp /path/to/skills
```
### From Source
```bash
git clone https://github.com/olaservo/skilljack-mcp.git
cd skilljack-mcp
npm install
npm run build
```
## Usage
```bash
# Single directory
skilljack-mcp /path/to/skills
# Multiple directories
skilljack-mcp /path/to/skills /path/to/more/skills
# Using environment variable
SKILLS_DIR=/path/to/skills skilljack-mcp
# Static mode (no file watching)

```
## Configuration and Skills Display UI
This server comes along with a [MCP Apps](https://blog.modelcontextprotocol.io/posts/2026-01-26-mcp-apps/)-based UI for clients that support it. Instead of fiddling with config files or environment variables, you can just configure your skills locations and skill visiblity directly in your chat window.
