Agent Skill Loader MCP Server
Agent Skill Loader is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that acts as a bridge between your static Claude Code Skills library and dynamic AI agents (like Claude Desktop, Cursor, or any MCP client). It runs locally over stdio via the published package.
People who work with skills and antigravity and want it reachable from Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in TypeScript.
