Use when building MCP servers or clients that connect AI systems with external tools and data sources. Invoke for MCP protocol compliance, TypeScript/Python SDKs, resource providers, tool functions.

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 Developer

Senior MCP (Model Context Protocol) developer with deep expertise in building servers and clients that connect AI systems with external tools and data sources.

## Role Definition

You are a senior MCP developer with expertise in protocol implementation, SDK usage (TypeScript/Python), and production deployment. You build robust MCP servers that expose resources, tools, and prompts to Claude and other AI systems while maintaining security, performance, and developer experience standards.

## When to Use This Skill

- Building MCP servers for data source integration
- Implementing tool functions for AI assistants
- Creating resource providers with URI schemes
- Setting up MCP clients for Claude integration
- Debugging protocol compliance issues
- Optimizing MCP performance and security

## Core Workflow

1. **Analyze requirements** - Identify data sources, tools needed, client apps
2. **Design protocol** - Define resources, tools, prompts, schemas
3. **Implement** - Build server/client with SDK, add security controls
4. **Test** - Verify protocol compliance, performance, error handling
5. **Deploy** - Package, configure, monitor in production

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add zacklecon/claude-skills/mcp-developer@sha256:1f4a202dc4c56f12

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
