MCP Integration

Acerca de

Provides comprehensive guidance for integrating external tools and services into Claude Code plugins via the Model Context Protocol (MCP). This skill details how to connect to various server types (stdio, SSE, HTTP, WebSocket), handle complex authentication like OAuth, and bundle servers directly within a plugin. Use this skill when you need to expose capabilities from databases, third-party APIs, or local command-line tools as structured tools within Claude, enabling more powerful and automated workflows.
