Which integrations are available for this server?

Allows the fetching of skill documentation and repository content directly from GitHub repositories to provide AI agents with immediate access to community-made instructions and code patterns.

How do I use skills-master-mcp?

1. Click on "Install Server". 2. Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state. 3. In the chat, type @ followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@skills-master-mcp find and read a skill for converting markdown to PDF" That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed. Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.

What is this?

A Plug & Play MCP server that connects your AI coding agent to the SkillsMP marketplace - 8,000+ community-made skills.

You can search for skills, easily install them (to ~/.claude/skills/) or read them directly into your agent's context (without installing).
No API key needed.

The key idea is to help lazy people like me to use skills more often, and save time and tokens for our dear agents.

Example

Here’s a real use case: converting a Markdown file to PDF.
You can either have the agent learn how to do it via web search, or simply import the skill.
Super efficient and fast.

You:      "I need to convert README.md to a PDF"

Agent:    searches SkillsMP for "markdown to pdf"
          → finds a skill for it
          → reads the SKILL.md content from GitHub
          → now has the full instructions in context

Agent:    "I found a skill for this. It uses Puppeteer to render
           the markdown and save it as PDF. Let me do that now."

          ...converts your file using the skill's instructions.

You:      ":))))"

The skill was never installed to your ~/.claude/skills
The agent just read it, learned the approach, and executed it.
One-shot use.

If you want a skill permanently, you can install it too:

You:      "Install that markdown-to-pdf skill for Claude Code"

Agent:    runs install_skill
          → skill is now saved to .claude/skills/
          → available in every future conversation

How It Works

Your AI Agent
    │
    ▼
skills-master-mcp (local, via npx)
    ├── search / ai_search ──▶ Proxy Backend ──▶ SkillsMP API
    ├── read_skill ──────────▶ GitHub (direct)
    ├── install_skill ───────▶ npx add-skill
    └── remove_skill ────────▶ Local file deletion

Search requests go through a proxy backend so you don't need an API key. Everything else is direct.

Configuration

Nothing to configure. Optional env vars for advanced use:

Variable	Default	Description
