Hi HN, I'm Matt, founder of MCPJam. We're building open source dev tools for MCP server builders. There’s been a lot of debate around skills vs MCP. From what I see, there’s a growing trend of people using skills paired with MCP servers. Skills teach the agent how to use the MCP server tools and guide the agent to completing complex workflows. We’re also seeing Anthropic encourage the use of Skills + MCP in their products. Anthropic recently launched the connectors marketplace. A good example of this is the Figma connector + skills. The Figma skill teaches the agent how to use the Figma MCP…

Open-source & web based MCP client. Chat with any MCP server in your own app. Powered by CopilotKit & Composio. Shipped this with cursor over the weekend and built: 1.

Uses Composio's MCP server.

Hi HN, I'm Gzuuus, the creator of ContextVM this is my first post here, hope you find it interesting! I started building ContextVM some months ago, this is an open protocol that runs the Model Context Protocol (MCP) over Nostr. In practice, it’s a transport for MCP that lets you expose remote servers without needing a domain, inbound ports, or OAuth, clients, and servers only need an outbound internet connection. The problem I ran into: When deploying a remote MCP server you can feel the pain. You usually need a domain name, a static IP, TLS certificates, port forwarding, and some way to…

Hello HN, I built this because I wanted to give Claude Desktop access to my Notion workspace without running a flaky local Python script via stdio. This is a Node.js/Express implementation of the Model Context Protocol (MCP) that uses SSE (Server-Sent Events) for transport. It’s designed to be stateless and deployable as a container (I'm hosting it on Apify, but it works anywhere with Node). The Stack: TypeScript + Express @modelcontextprotocol/sdk Zod for input validation Bearer Auth for security (since it exposes an HTTP endpoint) Capabilities: It allows the LLM to search pages,…
