SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

MCP integration enables Claude Code plugins to expose external services as MCP-enabled tools within Claude Code plugins, enabling seamless access to external services through the plugin framework.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Configure MCP servers via two supported methods: a dedicated .mcp.json at the plugin root and an mcpServers section in plugin.json.
  • Support all MCP server types (stdio, SSE, HTTP, WebSocket) and provide tooling patterns, discovery via /mcp, and authentication workflows.
  • Encourage secure deployments with environment-variable-based credentials, OAuth where available, and clear lifecycle management guidance.

Quick Start

Create a .mcp.json at your plugin root or add an mcpServers entry to plugin.json, then reload Claude Code and verify available MCP tools with /mcp.
