Generic MCP Setup

For any MCP-compatible client

This guide covers connecting llmskills to any application that supports the Model Context Protocol (MCP). The exact steps vary by client, but the core configuration is the same.

What is MCP?

The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is an open standard that lets AI assistants connect to external tools and data sources. It provides a consistent way for AI clients to discover and use capabilities provided by servers like llmskills. Any client that implements MCP can connect to your llmskills—no custom integration needed.

Requirements

  • An AI client with MCP support
  • SSE (Server-Sent Events) transport support
  • At least one skill purchased from llmskills.ai
  • Your personal MCP URL (from your dashboard)

Generic Setup Guide

1

Find your client's MCP settings

Most MCP-compatible clients have a settings or configuration section for external servers. Look for terms like "MCP", "Model Context Protocol", "External Tools", or "Server Connections".

2

Add the llmskills server

Add a new MCP server with the following configuration. The exact format varies by client, but most use JSON configuration.

json
{
  "name": "llmskills",
  "url": "https://mcp.llmskills.ai/your-unique-id",
  "transport": "sse"
}

💡 Replace "your-unique-id" with your personal MCP URL from your dashboard.

3

Configure transport settings

llmskills uses Server-Sent Events (SSE) for transport. Make sure your client is configured for SSE rather than WebSocket or stdio.

4

Restart or reconnect

Save your configuration and restart your client or trigger a reconnection. MCP servers typically connect at startup or when a new session begins.

5

Verify the connection

Ask your AI about available tools or skills. If connected correctly, it should list your purchased llmskills.
