# Skeleton Svelte MCP
A local, stdio MCP server that gives coding agents searchable access to the official [Skeleton documentation](https://www.skeleton.dev/llms-full.txt), with a focus on Svelte usage.
## What it provides
- `search_skeleton_docs`: ranked official documentation sections for a task or API query.
- `get_skeleton_section`: a full named section, such as `Accordion` or `Installation`.
- `skeleton_svelte_guidance`: Svelte-oriented excerpts for an implementation task.
- `skeleton://documentation/full`: the complete official documentation as an MCP resource.
Documentation is retrieved only from Skeleton's published `llms-full.txt`, kept in memory for one hour, and refreshed after that. If a refresh fails, the last successful copy remains available for the process lifetime.
## Install and build
Requires Node.js 20 or later.
```sh
npm install
npm run build
```
## Codex configuration
Add this server to your Codex MCP configuration, replacing `{base-folder}` with the directory containing this project:
```toml
[mcp_servers.skeleton-svelte]
command = "node"
args = ["{base-folder}\\dist\\index.js"]
```
For development, use `npx tsx {base-folder}\\src\\index.ts` as the command and arguments instead.
The server uses stdout exclusively for MCP JSON-RPC; operational logs must go to stderr.
## Run directly from GitHub
The compiled `dist/` folder is intentionally committed, so Codex can download and run a tagged GitHub release without a local clone. Create and push a Git tag that matches the release, for example:
```sh
git tag v0.1.1
git push origin v0.1.1
```
Then configure Codex to install and run that immutable release through `npx`:
```toml
[mcp_servers.skeleton-svelte]
command = "npx"
args = [
"--allow-git=all",
"--yes",
"--package=github:mxmauro/mcp-skeleton-dev#v0.1.1",
"skeleton-svelte-mcp"
]
```
`v0.1.1` is a Git tag, not merely the `version` value in `package.json`. Every tagged release must include `package.json`, `package-lock.json`, and a freshly built `dist/` directory. Node.js, npm, GitHub access, and network access are required on the machine where Codex starts the server.

Scored across 3 tools
get_skeleton_section is clearly distinct, but search_skeleton_docs and skeleton_svelte_guidance both perform relevance-based retrieval from the same documentation. The difference between returning top-level sections and implementation-oriented excerpts is present but subtle enough that an agent could easily choose the wrong tool.
Two tools follow a clear verb_noun pattern: search_skeleton_docs and get_skeleton_section. The third, skeleton_svelte_guidance, reads as a noun phrase rather than a verb-driven action, creating a mild inconsistency in the set.
Three tools is well-scoped for a documentation-focused MCP server. Each tool has a clear function, and there is no unnecessary bloat or redundancy that would weigh down the server.
The domain is Skeleton documentation lookup, and the set covers searching, retrieving specific sections, and getting task-oriented guidance. A direct listing or browsing of all available sections is missing, but the existing tools can likely cover most documentation needs.
