Find, install, and configure MCP servers. Use proactively for MCP discovery, OAuth setup, env vars, stdio vs SSE transport, or troubleshooting MCP connections. Examples: - user: "Add the filesystem MCP server" → read server file, add to mcpServers in opencode.json, verify transport type - user: "How do I use MCP with GitHub?" → check catalog, install @modelcontextprotocol/server-github, configure OAuth token - user: "MCP not connecting" → check transport type (stdio/SSE), verify args/command, check env vars are passed - user: "What MCPs are available?" → run list_mcps.py, show catalog with auth types and install commands

What this skill does


# MCP Installer

Find, install, and configure MCP servers for OpenCode.

<workflow>

## 1. Search for MCP Server

**Check local catalog first** (quick check for already-documented MCPs):
```bash
python3 ~/.config/opencode/skill/mcp-installer/scripts/list_mcps.py
```

**If not found locally, search online:**
- `websearch("MCP server for [capability]")`
- `webfetch("https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol/servers")`
- Check npm: `@modelcontextprotocol/server-*`
- Check the MCP spec repo: https://github.com/modelcontextprotocol

## 2. Read MCP Details

For relevant matches, read the full MCP file:

```
references/mcps/<name>.md
```

Contains installation config, setup, features, and links.

## 3. Configure

Add the MCP config to user's `opencode.json`.

## 4. Document New MCPs

If you discovered a new MCP server online, you MUST document it for future reference in `references/mcps/<name>.md` using the template below.

## 5. Setup (if needed)

- OAuth: Run `opencode mcp auth <server-name>`
- API keys: Set environment variables
- Other: Follow MCP-specific setup steps

</workflow>

<question_tool>

**Batching:** Use the `question` tool for 2+ related questions. Single questions → plain text.

**Syntax:** `header` ≤12 chars, `label` 1-5 words, add "(Recommended)" to default.

When to ask: Multiple MCPs match the need, or setup requires OAuth/API keys.

</question_tool>

<configuration>

## Local MCP

```jsonc
{
  "mcp": {
    "name": {
      "type": "local",
      "command": ["npx", "-y", "@package/name"]
    }
  }
}
```

## Remote MCP

```jsonc
{
  "mcp": {
    "name": {
      "type": "remote",
      "url": "https://example.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

## MCP Tool Management

MCPs expose tools. Control via the `permission` section using the tool name (usually the MCP name):

**Global/Agent Permission:**
```jsonc
{
  "permission": {
    "my-mcp": "deny",          // Disable all tools for this MCP
    "my-mcp*": "deny"          // Wildcard support
  }
}
```

**Pattern-based control:**
```jsonc
{
  "permission": {
    "my-mcp": {
      "safe_tool": "allow",
      "risky_tool": "ask",
      "*": "deny"
    }
  }
}
```

## Legacy Configuration

Agents may occasionally work on legacy projects using outdated configuration fields (e.g., `tools:`). You MUST correct these to the modern `permission:` system when encountered.

## OAuth

Remote MCPs with OAuth auto-authenticate:

```bash
opencode mcp auth <server-name>
```

Check status: `opencode mcp list`

</configuration>

<reference_files>

| You need... | Read this file |
|-------------|----------------|
| All config options (local, remote, oauth, env vars) | `references/configuration.md` |
| Common MCP server examples | `references/examples.md` |
| Troubleshooting issues | `references/troubleshooting.md` |

**Note:** The local catalog (`list_mcps.py`) is a cache of discovered MCPs, not a complete list. SHOULD always search online if you don't find a match locally.

</reference_files>

<documenting_new_mcps>

When discovering new MCP servers, you MUST document them:

**Location:** `references/mcps/<name>.md`

**Template:**
```markdown
---
name: mcp-name
url: https://github.com/org/repo
type: local|remote
auth: oauth|api-key|none
description: One-line description
tags: [tag1, tag2]
---

skill-development

Included

Comprehensive meta-skill for creating, managing, validating, auditing, and distributing Claude Code skills and slash commands (unified in v2.1.3+). Provides skill templates, creation workflows, validation patterns, audit checklists, naming conventions, YAML frontmatter guidance, progressive disclosure examples, and best practices lookup. Use when creating new skills, validating existing skills, auditing skill quality, understanding skill architecture, needing skill templates, learning about YAML frontmatter requirements, progressive disclosure patterns, tool restrictions (allowed-tools), skill composition, skill naming conventions, troubleshooting skill activation issues, creating custom slash commands, configuring command frontmatter, using command arguments ($ARGUMENTS, $1, $2), bash execution in commands, file references in commands, command namespacing, plugin commands, MCP slash commands, Skill tool configuration, or deciding between skills vs slash commands. Delegates to docs-management skill for official documentation.

reprompter

Included

Transform messy prompts into well-structured, effective prompts — single or multi-agent. Use when: "reprompt", "reprompt this", "clean up this prompt", "structure my prompt", rough text needing XML tags and best practices, "reprompter teams", "repromptception", "run with quality", "smart run", "smart agents", multi-agent tasks, audits, parallel work, anything going to agent teams. Don't use when: simple Q&A, pure chat, immediate execution-only tasks. See "Don't Use When" section for details. Outputs: Structured XML/Markdown prompt, quality score (before/after), optional team brief + per-agent sub-prompts, agent team output files. Success criteria: Single mode quality score ≥ 7/10; Repromptception per-agent prompt quality score 8+/10; all required sections present, actionable and specific.

adaptive-compaction

Included

Adaptive add-on policy and recovery layer that decides WHEN to compact, prune, snapshot, or fork -- replacing fixed-percent auto-compaction across Claude Code, Codex, and MCP-capable hosts. Trigger on auto-compact timing or damage: "when should I compact", "is it safe to compact now or start a fresh session", "auto-compact fires too early/mid-task", "switching to an unrelated task but the window still has space", "context rot", "answers get worse the longer the session runs", "the agent forgot the plan or my decisions after it summarized", "add a layer on top that manages context without changing the agent", raising autoCompactWindow to give the policy room, or installing/tuning a cross-tool compaction policy or PreCompact hook -- even when "compaction" is never said but the problem is context-window pressure or post-summarization memory loss. Do NOT use to summarize a conversation, build RAG, write a summarization prompt (decides WHEN not HOW), or answer max-context-length trivia.

agent-skill-creator

Included

Create cross-platform agent skills from workflow descriptions. Activates when users ask to create an agent, automate a repetitive workflow, create a custom skill, or need advanced agent creation. Triggers on phrases like create agent for, automate workflow, create skill for, every day I have to, daily I need to, turn process into agent, need to automate, create a cross-platform skill, validate this skill, export this skill, migrate this skill. Supports single skills, multi-agent suites, transcript processing, template-based creation, interactive configuration, cross-platform export, and spec validation.
