mcp-setup skillA

mcp-setup is agent-read markdown (skill) from fmind/dot: Configure MCP servers in coding-agent settings and verify project or user access..

Indexed from public GitHub and served as immutable, content-addressed versions. Install it pinned to an exact SHA-256 with the mdr CLI, and every file is verified against the hash recorded here before it reaches your agent. The deterministic audit below grades the latest version, and the same file always earns the same grade.

What the file says

# MCP Setup

Connect only the MCP capability the task needs, using the installed host's native interface. [MCP implementation](../agent-protocols/references/mcp/GUIDE.md) owns server implementation and [agent-project](../agent-project/SKILL.md) owns shared project layout.

## Workflow

1. **Identify host and scope**: inspect the installed `agy`, `claude`, `codex`, `copilot`, `grok`, or `opencode` interface and choose project versus user configuration.
1. **Review the server**: verify its source, transport, tools, credential flow, and requested permissions before launching it; use [host commands](references/host-commands.md) for the matching setup.
1. **Configure once**: preserve unmanaged settings, avoid duplicate registrations, and pass secrets through the supported environment or secret manager.
1. **Verify**: list the configured server, check its tool surface, and exercise a small read-only call; registration alone does not prove authentication or safe writes.
1. **Google Cloud case**: read [google-cloud-mcp.md](references/google-cloud-mcp.md) only for those product-specific registrations.

How to install

Latest version
mdr add fmind/dot/mcp-setup@git:20260919.4491844
Exact content
mdr add fmind/dot/mcp-setup@sha256:948da1ab06ed8eca

Pin to a label to follow the author's releases, or to a sha256 to freeze the exact bytes forever. Either way the resolved hash is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install reproduces it on any machine.
