SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill requires mcporter.

What problem does it solve? Working with MCP servers directly from the command line requires manual configuration, authentication handling, and tool invocation syntax that is tedious to manage by hand. This Skill provides a single CLI workflow to discover, authenticate, and call MCP tools without writing custom client code. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Server and Tool Discovery: List configured MCP servers and inspect tool schemas with mcporter list <server> --schema. - Direct Tool Invocation: Call tools using selector, function, URL, or stdio syntax, with JSON payload support for structured arguments. - Auth and Config Management: Handle OAuth flows and manage server configurations with mcporter auth and mcporter config commands. - Code Generation: Generate standalone CLIs or TypeScript clients from MCP servers using generate-cli and emit-ts. - Use Case: You need to fetch issues from a Linear MCP server. Run mcporter call linear.list_issues team=ENG limit:5 to get results immediately without writing an MCP client. ## Quick Start Ask the assistant to list all configured MCP servers and their available tools using mcporter.
