System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

This skill provides a progressive discovery pattern for MCP tools and skills, avoiding the need to preload all servers, tools, and schemas.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Lightweight discovery: enumerate MCP servers and tools without fetching full schemas.
  • Just-in-time schema loading: retrieve full tool schemas only when they are actually needed.
  • Skill discovery parity: apply the same progressive approach to skills for responsive UX in toolchains.

Quick Start

Use a just-in-time discovery flow: list_mcp_servers(), list_tools() for a server, get_tool_schema() on demand, and call_tool() after validating input.
