MCP Server Development Guide
Overview
To create high-quality MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers that enable LLMs to effectively interact with external services, use this skill. An MCP server provides tools that allow LLMs to access external services and APIs. The quality of an MCP server is measured by how well it enables LLMs to accomplish real-world tasks using the tools provided.
Process
🚀 High-Level Workflow
Creating a high-quality MCP server involves four main phases:
Phase 1: Deep Research and Planning
1.1 Understand Agent-Centric Design Principles
Before diving into implementation, understand how to design tools for AI agents by reviewing these principles:

tesseract
Pull and start Tesseract - the Information Mapping Knowledge Engine with Firebase backend. Provides localhost and Tailscale URLs.
9context-extract
Append conversation context to cumulative project history - never overwrites
7a2ui-embed
Write HTML visualizations to the A2UI panel or embed running apps
6youtube-transcript
Download YouTube video transcripts when user provides a YouTube URL or asks to download/get/fetch a transcript from YouTube. Also use when user wants to transcribe or get captions/subtitles from a YouTube video.
6folder
Display project folder contents in the TriClaude FOLDER panel
6context-manager
Maintain compiled context artifacts for stateless agent spawning. This skill produces BOOT_CONTEXT (stable project brain), DELTA_CONTEXT (recent changes), and feature bundles so any agent can spawn with deep understanding without reading the entire repo. Use this skill when setting up multi-agent workflows or when agents need fast, token-efficient onboarding.
