skills-mcp — DFL Forge skill-search MCP

Remote MCP server (Streamable HTTP) that exposes the live DFL Forge skills registry as MCP tools, so any Claude/MCP agent can discover and install DevFellowship skills, MCP servers and connections.

It is a thin server: no database, no state. Every tool call proxies the live skills.sh-compatible API at https://skills.devfellowship.com.

Tools

kind is one of skill | mcp | connection | all.

install_skill does not touch the filesystem (a remote MCP can't). It returns the exact command, e.g. npx skills add devfellowship/<repo> -g, plus a one-line explanation — the host agent or user runs it.

All tools return structured JSON text content (and structuredContent).

Run locally

npm install
npm run build
npm start              # listens on :3041 (PORT env to override)

Health check:

curl -s http://localhost:3041/health
# {"status":"ok","service":"dfl-mcp-skills","version":"0.1.0","upstream":"https://skills.devfellowship.com"}

MCP endpoint: POST http://localhost:3041/mcp (stateless Streamable HTTP).

Environment

Register with Claude (~/.claude.json)

Point at the deployed remote endpoint:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "dfl-mcp-skills": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://skills.mcp.devfellowship.com/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude to load it. For local dev, swap the URL for http://localhost:3041/mcp.

Deploy

Containerized via the included Dockerfile. Deploy target: Dokploy → skills.mcp.devfellowship.com. Infra is owned by another stream — this repo only ships the build manifest; it does not provision the deployment.

• Container listens on PORT (default 3041); expose it behind the Dokploy proxy.

• Health endpoint for the proxy/Dokploy probe: GET /health.
