What is the purpose of the ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} variable?

It is a dynamic placeholder used in configuration files to refer to the absolute path of your plugin's root directory, ensuring paths remain valid across different environments.

How are MCP tools named in Claude?

Tools are automatically namespaced using the format mcp__ __ to ensure clarity and prevent conflicts between different servers.

What is the Model Context Protocol (MCP)?

MCP is an open standard that allows AI models like Claude to connect to external data sources and tools through a standardized, secure server interface.

Can I use remote MCP servers with Claude?

Yes, this skill provides patterns for connecting to remote servers via HTTP or Server-Sent Events (SSE), including support for header-based authentication.

How do I configure a local MCP server?

You define the server in a .mcp.json file using the 'stdio' transport, specifying the execution command (e.g., node or npx), arguments, and required environment variables.
