Add a skill or an MCP server

Anthropic's skill-creator and mcp-builder, plus the rule that a downloaded SKILL.md is text until someone reviews it.

Before you use it. A club note is a reading order, not a product. Follow the license and the caution on each tool it links to.

Original AgentSkillClub write-up, released CC0-1.0. It is not an upstream project. Every tool it names is a separate open-source item in this catalog and keeps its own license.

When this is the job

You want a new SKILL.md, or a new MCP server, instead of another ad-hoc prompt.

Read these two first

  • Skill creator is Anthropic's Apache-2.0 skill for writing, editing, and evaluating skills. The mirror on this site is the SKILL.md and the LICENSE.txt. The eval assets stay in the source repo.
  • MCP builder is Anthropic's guide for a Python (FastMCP) or TypeScript MCP server. Same mirror rule.

Then stop before you install it

This site's install guide is the sequence: fetch the JSON, read the license, download the raw file only when it is mirrored, and do not execute companion scripts until a person has read them. A skill that says "run this script" is still a script.
