Connect agents to MCP servers using stdio or HTTP transport, with automatic Docker lifecycle management and transport auto-detection.

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# MCP Tool Integration

## Agent objective

Produce a builder with MCP servers correctly configured — right transport, Docker lifecycle, and auth — so the agent can discover and call MCP tools transparently.

## When to load this skill

- Adding external tools via MCP (GitHub, filesystem, databases, web APIs)
- Connecting to Docker-hosted MCP servers
- Debugging MCP connection or tool discovery failures
- Building agents that use context7, GitHub MCP, or custom MCP servers

## Implementation baseline

```ts
import { ReactiveAgents } from "@reactive-agents/runtime";

const agent = await ReactiveAgents.create()
  .withProvider("anthropic")
  .withReasoning({ defaultStrategy: "adaptive" })
  .withMCP([
    {
      name: "github",
      command: "docker",
      args: [
        "run", "--rm", "-i",
        "-e", "GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN",
        "ghcr.io/github/github-mcp-server",
      ],
      env: { GITHUB_PERSONAL_ACCESS_TOKEN: process.env.GITHUB_TOKEN ?? "" },
    },
    {
      name: "filesystem",
      command: "docker",
      args: [
        "run", "--rm", "-i",
        "-v", `${process.cwd()}:/workspace`,
        "mcp/filesystem", "/workspace",
      ],

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add tylerjrbuell/reactive-agents-ts/mcp-tool-integration@sha256:caee0e760ecbb388

The line at the top of this page pins the label v2.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
