What is MCP in the context of Claude Code?

MCP (Model Context Protocol) is an open standard that allows AI models like Claude to connect to external data sources and tools through a unified, secure interface.

Can I bundle multiple MCP servers within a single plugin?

Yes, you can configure multiple servers using either a dedicated .mcp.json file at the plugin root or inline within your plugin.json file.

How are MCP tools referenced in Claude Code commands?

Tools are automatically prefixed using the format 'mcp__plugin_[name]_[server]__[tool]'. You must pre-allow these tools in your command's frontmatter for security.

How does this skill handle authentication for external services?

The skill supports automated OAuth flows for SSE and HTTP-based servers, as well as token-based authentication via environment variable expansion in configuration files.

What is the difference between stdio and SSE server types?

stdio is used for local processes executed as child processes on your machine, while SSE (Server-Sent Events) is designed for connecting to hosted cloud services.
