Overview
What is Agent Skill Loader?
Agent Skill Loader is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that bridges a static Claude Code Skills library with dynamic AI agents (like Antigravity, Claude Desktop, or Cursor). It allows agents to learn skills on demand without requiring manual file copying into every project.
How to use Agent Skill Loader?
Install globally via npm (npm install -g agent-skill-loader) and register the server in .mcp.json. Alternatively, build from source. After setup, agents have access to five tools: list_skills, read_skill, install_skill, manage_search_paths, and debug_info.
Key features of Agent Skill Loader
- Scans configured skill directories for discovery.
- Fetches SKILL.md content for agents to read.
- Copies skill permanently to project if needed.
- Adds or removes skill directories at runtime.
- Diagnoses configuration and path issues.
Use cases of Agent Skill Loader
- An agent automatically finds and reads a skill for writing DAX measures.
- Developers maintain a central skills library used across projects.
- Dynamic learning without manually copying skill files into each project.
- Troubleshoot skill discovery using the debug_info tool.
