What it does

MCP Installer is an agent skill from IgorWarzocha/Opencode-Workflows. Find, install, and configure MCP servers. Use proactively for MCP discovery, OAuth setup, env vars, stdio vs SSE transport, or troubleshooting MCP connections. Examples: - user: "Add the filesystem MCP server" → read server file, add to mcpServers in opencode.json, verify transport type - user: "How do I use MCP with GitHub?" → check catalog, install @modelcontextprotocol/server-github, configure OAuth token - user: "MCP not connecting" → check transport type (stdio/SSE), verify args/command, check env vars are…

Its SKILL.md is about 1.2k tokens, which your agent loads only when the skill is triggered. The skill folder holds 24 other files, including scripts and reference files (for example `references/configuration.md`, `references/examples.md` and `references/mcps/brave-search.md`).

It sits in Agent Workflows, covering MCP servers. It works with Model Context Protocol and GitHub. The repository describes itself as: An ever evolving repository of Opencode workflow examples that might enhance your experience with it. I only left the stuff that actually works. YMMV.

When your agent uses it

  • Tasks that involve MCP servers

Example prompts

  • “Add the filesystem MCP server”
  • “How do I use MCP with GitHub?”
  • “MCP not connecting”
  • “/mcp-installer”

Requirements

  • Python 3

Workflow steps

5 steps, taken from the step headings in SKILL.md.

  1. Search for MCP Server
  2. Read MCP Details
  3. Configure
  4. Document New MCPs
  5. Setup (if needed)

What it can do on your machine

Read from SKILL.md and the folder at commit 6444ec4. 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

    Ships 1 file in scripts/, which the agent can run.

    Shell commands in SKILL.md call:

    • opencode
    • python3

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

  • Network

    Hosts in commands or code, which the agent is likely to contact:

    • github.com

    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

MCP Installer loads about 1.2k tokens when it runs, and up to ~6.3k if it reads all its reference files. Until then it costs about 161 tokens; SKILL.md has 332 words of instructions outside code blocks.

Always · name and description, kept in context so the agent knows when to use it
~161
When it runs · the whole SKILL.md, loaded when a task matches
~1.2k
With references · SKILL.md plus every file in references/, read only if the agent opens them
~6.3k

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); the scripts in this folder are not scanned.

SKILL.md

Without a licence we can't republish the file, so here is its outline and opening line. It has 332 words (~1,168 tokens).

“Find, install, and configure MCP servers for OpenCode.”
