🔧 How it works

agentskills-mcp acts as a bridge between skill collections and your local tools. It scans curated GitHub sources, lists available skills, and helps you add them to your workflow.

Typical tasks include:

• browsing skill collections

• finding skills by name or topic

• installing selected skills

• adding new skill sources

• keeping skill access in one place

The app uses the Model Context Protocol, so it can fit into tools that support MCP servers.

✨ Main features

• Discover skills from large curated GitHub collections

• Install skills from a central place

• Add more skill sources when you need them

• Work with FastMCP-based tools

• Support AI agent workflows

• Keep skill lookup simple

• Use GitHub as the source for skill libraries

• Fit into developer tools and local automation setups

🗂️ Skill sources

This project focuses on skill libraries that live on GitHub. It can work with large public collections and can be extended with new sources.

You can use it to:

• browse curated skills

• group skills by topic

• pick tools for specific agent tasks

• maintain a custom skill set

• link more repositories or collections later

🧰 How to use it day to day

1. Start the server.

2. Open your MCP-aware app or agent tool.

3. Connect that tool to agentskills-mcp.

4. Search for the skill you need.
