A powerful VS Code extension that lets you discover, install, and manage open‑source MCP servers and agent skills from one place.

✨ Features

🔧 MCP Server Management – connect/manage multiple servers via an intuitive UI
🧠 Skills Search & Install – discover skills from skills.sh and install to your agents
🗂️ Installed Skills Management – view installed skills and uninstall with agent-level controls
🚀 Claude/Codex/Copilot Integration – expose MCP tools directly to your agents
🎯 Server Discovery – automatically discover open‑source servers

📦 Installation

Install from the VS Code Marketplace.
Open MCP Servers in the Activity Bar, or configure in Settings.

Optional: Remote MCP (no local setup)

If you don’t want to run servers locally, use Cloud MCP (remote, OAuth‑only).
Paste the MCP URL into Copilot/Claude and you’re done:
