skill-forge-mcp

日本語

An MCP server that exposes the Agent Skill creation guide (9 phases) as MCP resources. AI agents retrieve only the phases they need on demand and follow the process to build SKILL.md files.

Quick Start

Claude Code:

claude mcp add skill-forge-mcp -- npx skill-forge-mcp

Gemini CLI:

gemini mcp add skill-forge-mcp -- npx skill-forge-mcp

VS Code (GitHub Copilot) — .vscode/mcp.json:

{
  "servers": {
    "skill-forge-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["skill-forge-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Cursor:

{
  "skill-forge-mcp": {
    "command": "npx",
    "args": ["skill-forge-mcp"]
  }
}

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "skill-forge-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["skill-forge-mcp"]
    }
  }
}

Usage

Ask your agent:

"I want to create a skill for React component design. Follow the SkillForge MCP process."

The agent will automatically:

1. Fetch the process structure from process://manifest

2. Read Phase 1 (process://phase/1) for scoping, run baseline measurements

3. Record progress with mark_progress as it advances through each phase

4. Generate the final SKILL.md following Phase 6 guidelines

Use search_process for keyword lookups across phases.

The 9 Phases

Features

• Staged access — retrieve content at phase or section granularity

• Cross-phase search — keyword search across all 9 phases

• Progress tracking — record and query per-phase completion status

• Prompt templates — create_skill and resume_skill prompts for guided workflows

• Structured output — outputSchema + structuredContent on all tools for programmatic consumption

• State persistence — optionally retain progress across sessions

• Low overhead — ~1,500 token fixed cost to the context window
