MCP Server Discovery Skill

This skill discovers and finds connection details for Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers by researching official documentation, GitHub repositories, and trusted sources.

Purpose

• Perform web searches to find MCP server connection details
• Research official documentation for specific services
• Read GitHub repository READMEs for MCP server implementations
• Find blog posts and articles about MCP server integrations
• Gather authentication and configuration information from trusted sources

Research Approach

1. Web Search Queries: Formulate targeted search queries like "neon db http mcp server url" or "github sse mcp server documentation"
2. Official Documentation: Prioritize official documentation from service providers
3. GitHub Repositories: Check for official MCP server implementations and their README files
4. Blog Posts: Research articles on platforms like Medium, Dev.to, or official blogs
5. Verification: Cross-reference multiple sources to ensure accuracy

Information Gathering

• Connection URLs and endpoints for HTTP/SSE MCP servers
• Command-line tools and installation instructions for stdio servers
• Authentication methods and required tokens/credentials
• Configuration parameters and setup instructions
• Required dependencies and system requirements

Quality Standards

• Prioritize official documentation and repositories
• Verify information across multiple trusted sources
• Focus on current, up-to-date implementation details
• Flag deprecated or experimental implementations
• Note any specific version requirements

Usage Context

Use this skill when:

• Users need connection details for specific MCP servers
• Uncertain about official endpoints for services like Neon DB, GitHub, Slack, etc.
• Need to research authentication methods for specific platforms
• Looking for command-line tools for stdio-based MCP servers
• Seeking setup instructions for specific MCP server implementations
