search_skillsLABSCO SUMMARY
Skill discovery with numbers attached.
Search is the easy half; the detail call is what earns the install, returning success rate, run count and rating so two candidate skills can be compared instead of the first match being taken.
What it is
An MCP server over the SkillFlow AI skills marketplace, reading live from the SkillFlow backend. It searches the catalogue, opens one skill with its trust and performance figures, reports what is trending, and lists the categories the catalogue is organised by.
What you get
- Skills found by search across the marketplace
- One skill in detail, with its success rate, run count, rating and speed figures
- What is currently trending
- The categories the catalogue is organised by
- Platform-wide totals
Requirements
Nothing to configure - no account, no API key. Run it through npx for a local client, or point a remote client at the Streamable HTTP transport.
Setup effort
One command — npx skillflow-mcp-server
USE CASES
01
Finding a skill for a job you are about to automate
Search the catalogue by what you need done and see what already exists.
02
Deciding between two skills that both look right
Open each one and compare success rate, run count and speed rather than the description.
03
Seeing what other people are adopting
The trending list is the marketplace's own movement, not a curated shelf.
04
Browsing when you do not know the search term
Start from the categories, then search inside the one that fits.
05
Sizing up the catalogue before you rely on it
Platform totals say how much is actually in there.
