Search and discover Claude Code skills and MCP servers from marketplaces, GitHub repositories, and registries. Use when (1) user asks to find skills for a specific task, (2) looking for MCP servers to connect external tools, (3) user mentions "find skill", "search MCP", "discover tools", or "what skills exist for X", (4) before creating a custom skill to check if one already exists.

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

# Resource Scout

Search and discover existing Claude Code skills and MCP servers before building custom solutions.

## Quick Search Strategy

**For Skills:**
1. WebSearch: `site:skillsmp.com [topic]` or `claude skill [topic]`
2. Check GitHub: `awesome-claude-skills [topic]`
3. Browse: skillhub.club, claudeskills.info

**For MCP:**
1. WebSearch: `MCP server [tool/service name]`
2. Check: glama.ai/mcp/servers, mcpmarket.com
3. Official: github.com/modelcontextprotocol/servers

## Skill Search Workflow

### Step 1: Define Need

Before searching, clarify:
- What task needs to be accomplished?
- What tools/services are involved?
- Is it a common pattern (git, testing, API) or domain-specific?

### Step 2: Search Marketplaces

**Primary sources (largest catalogs):**

| Source | URL | Best For |
|--------|-----|----------|
| SkillsMP | skillsmp.com | 71000+ skills, long-tail search |
| SkillHub.club | skillhub.club | AI-evaluated, quality filter |
| Claude Skills Hub | claudeskills.info | UI-friendly browsing |

**Search patterns:**
```
# On SkillsMP
[domain] skill          → "marketing skill", "database skill"
[framework] claude      → "react claude", "fastapi claude"

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add nicepkg/ai-workflow/resource-scout@sha256:85e027b9ceca9581

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260120.d167b41, 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.
