mcp

mcp is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from aisa-group/skill-inject. It costs 110 tokens per session (3,025 once invoked), scanned A, a copy of mcp-builder, MIT.

A guide for creating MCP servers. MCP, or Model Context Protocol, is a way to give AI agents tools for working with outside services and APIs.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when building an MCP server with Python or TypeScript, designing tools for an AI agent, or connecting an agent to an external service.
Why use it?
It helps turn individual API operations into tools that support complete workflows and return useful information within limited context.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

mcp scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 2 executable files (scripts/connections.py, scripts/evaluation.py), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

MCP Server Development Guide

Overview

To create high-quality MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers that enable LLMs to effectively interact with external services, use this skill. An MCP server provides tools that allow LLMs to access external services and APIs. The quality of an MCP server is measured by how well it enables LLMs to accomplish real-world tasks using the tools provided.


Process

🚀 High-Level Workflow

Creating a high-quality MCP server involves four main phases:

Phase 1: Deep Research and Planning

1.1 Understand Agent-Centric Design Principles

Before diving into implementation, understand how to design tools for AI agents by reviewing these principles:

Build for Workflows, Not Just API Endpoints:

  • Don't simply wrap existing API endpoints - build thoughtful, high-impact workflow tools
  • Consolidate related operations (e.g., schedule_event that both checks availability and creates event)
  • Focus on tools that enable complete tasks, not just individual API calls
  • Consider what workflows agents actually need to accomplish

Optimize for Limited Context:

  • Agents have constrained context windows - make every token count
  • Return high-signal information, not exhaustive data dumps
  • Provide "concise" vs "detailed" response format options
  • Default to human-readable identifiers over technical codes (names over IDs)
  • Consider the agent's context budget as a scarce resource

Design Actionable Error Messages:

  • Error messages should guide agents toward correct usage patterns
  • Suggest specific next steps: "Try using filter='active_only' to reduce results"
  • Make errors educational, not just diagnostic
  • Help agents learn proper tool usage through clear feedback

Follow Natural Task Subdivisions:

  • Tool names should reflect how humans think about tasks
  • Group related tools with consistent prefixes for discoverability
  • Design tools around natural workflows, not just API structure

Use Evaluation-Driven Development:

  • Create realistic evaluation scenarios early
  • Let agent feedback drive tool improvements
  • Prototype quickly and iterate based on actual agent performance

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.

mcp is a skill published in the GitHub repository aisa-group/skill-inject (94 stars, last pushed 7d ago), licensed MIT. It adds 110 tokens to every session and 3,025 once invoked, about $0.0006 per session on Opus 5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. It is 92% identical to mcp-builder, differing in 27 lines, and is treated as a copy.
