MCPize Skills

Go from "what should I build?" to a live MCP server on the marketplace — in one session.

Three skills. One pipeline. You choose the idea, we handle the rest.

What's in the box

Skill	The vibe
/mcpize:idea	Your brainstorming buddy. Interviews you about your skills & domain, generates 3-5 tailored MCP server ideas, researches competitors, validates APIs, runs monetization analysis, and hands you a ready-to-build brief.
/mcpize:build	Your pair programmer. Takes the brief, scaffolds a project via mcpize init, implements every tool with proper validation and error handling, writes tests, runs a live verification loop, and makes sure everything actually works.
/mcpize:publish	Your launch partner. Deploys to MCPize Cloud, generates SEO metadata + logo + pricing via AI, publishes to the marketplace, creates social media posts, and verifies the live endpoint. Ship day feels good.

Get started

Claude Code

/plugin marketplace add mcpize/mcpize-skills
/plugin install mcpize@mcpize-skills

Then restart Claude Code (/exit and relaunch) to load the skills.

Now run:

/mcpize:idea      # "I want to build something but don't know what"
/mcpize:build     # "Here's my brief, let's code"
/mcpize:publish   # "Ship it!"

One-shot — let the skills chain automatically:

> using one by one /mcpize:idea → /mcpize:build → /mcpize:publish ship me an MCP server

Idea discovery, build, deploy, publish — all in one prompt.

Cursor

npx skillkit install mcpize/mcpize-skills --agent cursor

Copilot, Windsurf, and 40+ other agents

npx skillkit install mcpize/mcpize-skills

SkillKit auto-translates the skills into whatever format your agent needs.

Manual install

Grab the skills/ folder and drop it into your agent's skill directory:

• Claude Code: ~/.claude/skills/
• Cursor: .cursor/skills/
• Copilot: .github/skills/

The pipeline

  /mcpize:idea              /mcpize:build              /mcpize:publish

         v                         |                          v
  mcp-brief-*.md                   v                   Live on mcpize.com
  (ready for build)         Working server             + social posts
                            (ready for publish)        + launch checklist

Each skill picks up where the last one left off. Run all three in sequence, or jump in wherever you are.

Examples

Step by step — run each skill when you're ready

For the pros who like full control:

> /mcpize:idea
  I'm a Python dev who trades crypto. I want passive income.

  ... interviews you, generates 5 ideas, you pick "DeFi Yield Analyzer",
  competitive research, API validation, monetization analysis ...
  -> saves mcp-brief-defi-yield-analyzer.md

> /mcpize:build
  ... reads the brief, scaffolds project, implements 4 tools,
  adds caching + error handling, tests pass, live verification green ...
