This server runs on your own machine — install it with the package manager and the client starts it for you. Package name taken from the official registry entry.

This one needs environment variables set before it will start: SKILLS_REPO_URL (URL of the skills repository to sync from), SKILLS_CACHE_DIR (Directory path for caching skills data), SKILLS_SYNC_INTERVAL (Auto-sync interval in minutes (0 to disable)), LOG_LEVEL (Logging level (debug, info, warn, error)). The author declared them in the registry entry; get the values from the project itself.

Awesome Agent Skills — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

Why is there no uptime for Awesome Agent Skills?
Awesome Agent Skills runs on your own machine over stdio — there is no network address to reach, so uptime cannot be measured for it by anyone. What can be measured is adoption: the npm package awesome-agent-skills-mcp was installed 33 times last week.
How do I connect Awesome Agent Skills?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It runs locally, so the command pulls awesome-agent-skills-mcp straight from npm; nothing to host, nothing to sign up for.
How many people use Awesome Agent Skills?
The npm package awesome-agent-skills-mcp was installed 33 times in the last week. Week over week that is -28%. We show installs rather than GitHub stars on purpose: a star is a bookmark, an install is someone actually running it.
Is Awesome Agent Skills open source?
Yes — it is published under the MIT licence, written in TypeScript, 25 stars on GitHub and 2 open issues. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
