Does this skill handle SDK version changes?

Yes, it provides patterns for both legacy and current SDK signatures, recommending tools like Context7 to verify the latest method names.

What is the Model Context Protocol (MCP)?

MCP is an open standard that enables AI assistants like Claude to securely access data and tools from your local or remote servers.

Why use Zod with MCP?

Zod ensures that input schemas are strictly validated before processing, preventing runtime errors and improving model reliability when calling tools.

Which transport method should I use: stdio or HTTP?

Use stdio for local integrations like Claude Desktop; use Streamable HTTP for remote connections or cloud-based AI clients.

Is this skill safe for production use?

Yes, it promotes best practices like error handling, idempotency, and rate limiting to ensure production-grade reliability.
