mcp-setup SKILL.md skillA

This file is byte-identical to the first copy the registry indexed. Same content hash, so the same checks give both the same grade.

mcp-setup from naman10parikh/wikimem is an agent skill: a SKILL.md folder an AI agent loads when a task calls for it.

Install it, pinned
mdr add naman10parikh/wikimem/mcp-setup@git:20260526.e594bbf

Pins git:20260526.e594bbf in mdr.lock. Pin the fingerprint instead.

Self-install MCP servers to expand Claude's capabilities. Read the catalog, install the server, wire it into .mcp.json, and test.

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

## When to Use

- User says "install the [X] MCP server" or "set up [X] MCP"
- You need a capability that an MCP server provides (database access, API, browser, etc.)
- During resource integration when an article mentions a useful MCP server

## Process

### 1. Find the Server

Check these sources in order:

- `resources/awesome-repos.md` (our local catalog)
- https://github.com/punkpeye/awesome-mcp-servers (82K+ stars, 2,500+ servers)
- npm registry: `npm search mcp-server-[name]`
- GitHub search: `mcp server [name]`

### 2. Evaluate Before Installing

- Does it duplicate an existing capability? (Check current .mcp.json first)
- Is it actively maintained? (Last commit < 3 months ago)
- Does it have security concerns? (Never install servers that require write access to system files)
- Is it worth the token overhead? (~4,200 tokens per MCP server vs ~70 for a skill)

**Rule: If a skill can do the job, prefer the skill. MCPs are for external integrations only.**

### 3. Install

#### For npx-based servers (most common):

```bash
# Test it works first
npx -y @modelcontextprotocol/server-[name] --help
```

Then update `.mcp.json`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "[name]": {
…

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add naman10parikh/wikimem/mcp-setup@sha256:b6f9e2f9b3e4404b

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260526.e594bbf, 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.
