Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Check whether a Claude Code skill was tested and whether it works before installing it.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Other

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "skillproof": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "skillproof-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add skillproof -- npx -y skillproof-mcp

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "skillproof": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "skillproof-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "skillproof": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "skillproof-mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Common questions

Is Skillproof safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (1.0.1) reached the registry 4 months ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

SkillProof MCP

Ask whether a Claude Code skill actually works — before you install it.

GitHub has tens of thousands of SKILL.md files. Almost none have been run by anyone but their author. SkillProof installs them from their repo, triggers them, and runs them on a real task against a no-skill baseline. This MCP server puts those verdicts in your agent's hands.

> is there a tested skill for converting markdown to Confluence?

Confluence — DIDN'T PASS — scored below the no-skill baseline

What our test found: Ran the bundled convert_markdown_to_wiki.py on a real sample doc: it silently turns bold text into wiki _italic_ (a genuine regex bug), and leaves standard GitHub-style tables completely unconverted, despite SKILL.md listing "tables" among the elements it handles.

That is the whole point. A directory that only lists winners tells you nothing.

Tools

ToolWhat it answers
find_skill"Is there a tested skill for *X*?" — ranked matches with verdict, score, test notes, install command
check_skill"Someone recommended *X* — is it any good?" — the verdict for one skill by name, slug, or repo

Every answer carries one of three verdicts:

  • pass — installed, triggered, and beat the no-skill baseline on a real task.
  • setup — works, but needs a manual step first (the notes say which).
  • didn't pass — scored below the no-skill baseline: it either couldn't run, or left you worse off than not installing it.

If nothing has been tested for your job, the server says so instead of guessing. "Not tested" is a real answer.

Install

Claude Code:

claude mcp add skillproof -- npx -y skillproof-mcp

Or add it to your MCP config by hand:

{

"mcpServers": { "skillproof": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "skillproof-mcp"] } } }

Works in any MCP client (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, Windsurf, Zed). Node 18+. No API key, no account.

Where the data comes from

The server reads the live catalog at skillproof.dev/api/skills.json and caches it for 15 minutes. Nothing is bundled, so verdicts are never stale. The scoring rubric — install /5, triggering /5, output-vs-baseline /10, docs /5 — is published at skillproof.dev/methodology.

Catalog data is CC BY 4.0: use it, cite skillproof.dev.
