Skillselion MCP server

Official
by skillselion

๐Ÿš€ Install

Claude Code - one line:

claude mcp add skillselion --scope user -- npx -y skillselion-mcp

Claude Desktop / Cursor / Codex - add to your MCP config:

{ "mcpServers": { "skillselion": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "skillselion-mcp"] } } }

No build step, no auth, no API key. One ~30 KB file via npx.

Want it fully automatic? npx -y skillselion-mcp setup registers the server and installs a session hook so your agent loads the right skill the moment a task matches - see Skill autopilot.

๐Ÿ”ง Tools

Tool

What it does

๐Ÿ“ฅ load_skill

The everyday default: finds the best-matching skill for your task and materializes it - real SKILL.md in context + bundled scripts/references on disk - so the agent follows it like an installed skill. Returns ranked runner-ups you can switch to.

๐Ÿงฌ synthesize_skills

The cross-source playbook: merges the key rules of the top ~5 matching skills into one deduped, provenance-tagged digest - the field's consensus, not one author's take.

๐Ÿ” search_skillselion

Search the catalog by keyword or task; filter by skill / mcp / marketplace.

๐Ÿ† top_skillselion

The leaderboard - the most-installed skills and top-starred MCP servers right now.

๐Ÿ”’ Private by default

Read-only, no auth, no secrets. It never sends your code, files, or the context you pass - only a scrubbed search query + which skill matched, so the catalog learns what to add next. Set DO_NOT_TRACK=1 to disable even that.

๐Ÿช„ Skill autopilot

npx -y skillselion-mcp setup        # interactive - pick your packs
npx -y skillselion-mcp setup --yes  # non-interactive - agents / CI

Registers the MCP globally and installs a Claude Code SessionStart hook that primes every session with skills relevant to you - so loads happen on their own.

Flag

What it does

--packs <a,b,โ€ฆ>

one or more packs (or all), e.g. --packs frontend,backend; frontend:6 sets a per-pack count

--per-pack N

skills per pack (default 3) ยท --top N sets the popular count

--auto

adapt each session to the current repo's stack

--history

infer your focus from Claude Code / Codex history (one-time scan)

--yes

never prompt (default when there's no terminal)

Packs: popular (default) ยท frontend ยท ai-agents ยท media ยท backend ยท devops ยท quality ยท automation.

Safe by design: ~/.claude/settings.json is merged, never clobbered; re-running de-dupes and upgrades the hook in place.

Var

Default

What it controls

GITHUB_TOKEN

-

optional, read-only; raises GitHub's rate limit for full multi-file skill loads (60 โ†’ 5000 req/hr)

SK_INLINE_BUDGET

6000

char cap on the in-context SKILL.md portion (the full skill is always on disk)

SK_SYNTH_N

5

how many top skills synthesize_skills merges (2-8)

SK_SYNTH_PER_SKILL

12

max rules kept per source skill

SK_SYNTH_BUDGET

4000

char cap on the merged digest

DO_NOT_TRACK

-

set 1 to disable the anonymous demand signal

The agent doesn't see the tools. Some clients surface MCP tools lazily - tell the agent to search its tools for "skillselion" first (e.g. ToolSearch), then call it. The setup hook automates this nudge.

load_skill returns only the SKILL.md, no bundled files. You hit GitHub's unauthenticated 60 req/hr limit - set a read-only GITHUB_TOKEN in the server's env.

"No skill on Skillselion clearly matches..." The relevance floor working as intended - nothing topical matched, so it refuses to waste your context. Try a more specific query.

Setup couldn't auto-register. Run the printed claude mcp add ... line yourself.

npm install
npm test           # offline: server boots, tools, synthesis
npm run test:live  # live catalog + GitHub (set GITHUB_TOKEN)
