SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Claude cannot access external data sources and tools directly. This Skill provides MCP servers to extend Claude's capabilities by enabling access to databases, APIs, and custom tools.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • MCP server template: Expose tools and data to Claude via a configurable server.
  • Live data access: Query databases and fetch API data for real-time decisions.
  • Orchestration: Coordinate actions across multiple services and workflows.

Quick Start

Create a new MCP server project, install dependencies with PNPM, implement a sample tool, and run the server using the provided transport.
