## What it does

The plugin sits on top of the `skill-seekers` package, so install that first: `pip install skill-seekers[mcp]`. It bundles an MCP server with 35 tools that pull content from documentation sites, GitHub repos, PDFs, videos and 13 other source types, package the result for 16+ LLM platforms, and export to Weaviate, Chroma, FAISS or Qdrant. Three slash commands ship alongside, plus a `skill-builder` skill Claude picks up on its own.

The commands split the work: `/skill-seekers:create-skill <source>` detects the source type and builds a skill, `/skill-seekers:sync-config <config>` checks config URLs against the live docs, and `/skill-seekers:install-skill <source>` runs the whole chain from fetch to install. Add `--enhance` to the last one for AI enhancement. Target platform goes in `--target`, for instance `--target langchain`.

By default the MCP server runs locally through `python -m skill_seekers.mcp.server_fastmcp`. To point at a hosted server instead, edit `.mcp.json` and set your own address in the `url` field. Without that entry the local process is what you get.

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

**Plugin marketplace**
In the agent chat (not a shell):
```text
/plugin marketplace add anthropics/claude-plugins-community
```
In the agent chat (not a shell):
```text
/plugin install skill-seekers@claude-community
```

## When to use it
- build a skill from the React docs site
- scrape the Flask repo and package it for LangChain
- export a finished skill to Chroma
- check config URLs against current documentation
- turn a PDF or Slack export into a knowledge base

## Example prompts
- Build a skill from the React docs: `/skill-seekers:create-skill https://react.dev`
- Scrape `pallets/flask` and package it for LangChain
- Run the full workflow with enhancement: `/skill-seekers:install-skill https://fastapi.tiangolo.com --enhance`

# Skill Seekers — Claude Code Plugin

Transform 17 source types into AI-ready skills and RAG knowledge, directly from Claude Code.

## Installation

### From the Official Plugin Directory

```
/plugin install skill-seekers@claude-plugin-directory
```

Or browse for it in `/plugin > Discover`.

### Local Installation (for development)

```bash
claude --plugin-dir ./path/to/skill-seekers-plugin
```

### Prerequisites

The plugin requires `skill-seekers` to be installed:

```bash
pip install skill-seekers[mcp]
```

## What's Included

### MCP Server (35 tools)

The plugin bundles the Skill Seekers MCP server providing tools for:
- Scraping documentation, GitHub repos, PDFs, videos, and 13 other source types
- Packaging skills for 16+ LLM platforms
- Exporting to vector databases (Weaviate, Chroma, FAISS, Qdrant)
- Managing configs, workflows, and sources

### Slash Commands

| Command | Description |
|---------|-------------|
| `/skill-seekers:create-skill <source>` | Create a skill from any source (auto-detects type) |
| `/skill-seekers:sync-config <config>` | Sync config URLs against live docs |
| `/skill-seekers:install-skill <source>` | End-to-end: fetch, scrape, enhance, package, install |

### Agent Skill

The **skill-builder** skill is automatically available to Claude. It detects source types and uses the appropriate MCP tools to build skills autonomously.

## Usage Examples

```
# Create a skill from a documentation site
/skill-seekers:create-skill https://react.dev

# Create from a GitHub repo, targeting LangChain
/skill-seekers:create-skill pallets/flask --target langchain

# Full install workflow with AI enhancement
/skill-seekers:install-skill https://fastapi.tiangolo.com --enhance

# Sync an existing config
/skill-seekers:sync-config react
```

Or just ask Claude naturally:
> "Create an AI skill from the React documentation"
> "Scrape the Flask GitHub repo and package it for OpenAI"
> "Export my skill to a Chroma vector database"

The skill-builder agent skill will automatically detect the intent and use the right tools.

## Remote MCP Alternative

By default, the plugin runs the MCP server locally via `python -m skill_seekers.mcp.server_fastmcp`. To use a remote server instead, edit `.mcp.json`:

```json
{
  "skill-seekers": {
    "type": "http",
    "url": "https://your-hosted-server.com/mcp"
  }
}
```

## Supported Source Types

Documentation (web), GitHub repos, PDFs, Word docs, EPUBs, videos, local codebases, Jupyter notebooks, HTML files, OpenAPI specs, AsciiDoc, PowerPoint, RSS/Atom feeds, man pages, Confluence, Notion, Slack/Discord exports.
