MCP Server Discovery

This skill helps you discover and manage MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers.

What is MCP?

Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that enables AI systems to connect with external data sources and tools. It provides a standardized way for AI assistants to access files, databases, APIs, and other resources.

Available Commands

Use the scripts/mcp_discover.py script for all MCP operations:

List Available Servers

python3 scripts/mcp_discover.py list

Filter by category:

python3 scripts/mcp_discover.py list --category database

Categories: filesystem, dev, database, web, search, memory

Search for Servers

python3 scripts/mcp_discover.py search --query "database"

Get Server Details

python3 scripts/mcp_discover.py info --name postgres

Generate MCP Client Configuration

python3 scripts/mcp_discover.py config --servers "filesystem,github,memory"

Common Workflows

Setting up a new MCP client

1. List available servers to see options
2. Select the servers you need
3. Generate configuration with those servers
4. Save the output to your MCP client's config file

Finding the right server

1. Use search with keywords related to your need
2. Use info to get detailed information about a specific server
3. Check the install command and URL for setup instructions

Server Categories

• filesystem: File system access and management
• dev: Development tools and integrations (GitHub, etc.)
• database: Database connections (PostgreSQL, SQLite)
• web: Web scraping and content fetching
• search: Search engine integrations
• memory: Persistent memory and knowledge graph

JSON Output

All commands support --json flag for programmatic use:

python3 scripts/mcp_discover.py list --json
