What it does

Sts2 MCP Player is an agent skill from CharTyr/STS2-Agent. Play or validate Slay the Spire 2 through the local sts2-ai-agent MCP tools, including access to live game metadata from the Mod API (cards/relics/monsters/etc.) for richer decision-making. Use when navigating the main menu, timeline, map, combat, rewards, shops, rest sites, events, chests, card selections, potions, or debug-enabled test flows, and when another agent needs a strict state-first workflow that avoids stale indexes, invalid room actions, and tool-profile confusion.

Its SKILL.md is about 5.5k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 8 other files, including reference files (for example `README.md`, `agents/openai.yaml` and `references/debug-and-validation.md`).

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering MCP servers. It works with Model Context Protocol. The repository describes itself as: 杀戮尖塔2的MOD,将杀戮尖塔2的游戏状态与操作暴露为本地 HTTP API 包装成 MCP Server,供支持 MCP 的AI客户端直接调用.

When your agent uses it

  • Navigating the main menu
  • Card selections
  • Debug-enabled test flows
  • When another agent needs a strict state-first workflow that avoids stale indexes

Example prompts

  • “/sts2-mcp-player”

Workflow steps

3 steps, taken from the first numbered list in SKILL.md.

  1. Use local_server_name first.
  2. If local is unavailable, retry the same flow on remote_server_name.
  3. If aliases are unavailable but STS2 tools are already exposed, call the tools directly.

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 7b3cb83. It shows what the files ask for, not the result of running them.

  • Tool permissions

    Pre-approves nothing: there is no allowed-tools line, so your agent's usual permission prompts apply.

    From allowed-tools in the SKILL.md frontmatter.

  • Runs code

    No scripts in the folder and no shell commands in SKILL.md (its code samples are toml).

    From the folder's file list and the shell code blocks in SKILL.md.

  • Network

    No URLs in SKILL.md.

    From URLs in SKILL.md, links to its own repository left out.

  • Credentials

    Names no API keys, tokens, secrets or passwords.

    From names ending in _API_KEY, _TOKEN, _SECRET, _KEY or _PASSWORD in SKILL.md.

Context cost

Sts2 MCP Player loads about 5.5k tokens when it runs, and up to ~13k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 125 tokens; SKILL.md has 2,828 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~125
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~5.5k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~13k

Estimates: characters ÷ 4, the usual rule of thumb; real counts depend on the model's tokenizer. Scripts and assets cost tokens only if the agent reads them.

Safety

Auto-check passed

The automated check found no risky patterns in SKILL.md.

Automated static check — not a guarantee. Review scripts before installing. It scans the text of SKILL.md for risky patterns (piping downloads into a shell, reading credential files, hidden Unicode, destructive commands); files beside SKILL.md are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Its licence (Custom licence) doesn't allow us to republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 2,828 words (~5,518 tokens).

“Use this skill when driving the STS2 MCP mod as a gameplay agent or when validating the live MCP contract against the running game.”
