Skill Seekers — Smithery MCP Registry

Publishing guide for the Skill Seekers MCP server on Smithery.

Status

• Namespace created: yusufkaraaslan
• Server created: yusufkaraaslan/skill-seekers
• Server page: https://smithery.ai/servers/yusufkaraaslan/skill-seekers
• Release status: Needs re-publish (initial release failed — Smithery couldn't scan GitHub URL as MCP endpoint)

Publishing

Smithery requires a live, scannable MCP HTTP endpoint for URL-based publishing. Two options:

Option A: Publish via Web UI (Recommended)

1. Go to https://smithery.ai/servers/yusufkaraaslan/skill-seekers/releases
2. The server already exists — create a new release
3. For the "Local" tab: follow the prompts to publish as a stdio server
4. For the "URL" tab: provide a hosted HTTP endpoint URL

Option B: Deploy HTTP endpoint first, then publish via CLI

1. Deploy the MCP server on Render/Railway/Fly.io:

   # Using existing Dockerfile.mcp
   docker build -f Dockerfile.mcp -t skill-seekers-mcp .
   # Deploy to your hosting provider
   

2. Publish the live URL:

   npx @smithery/cli@latest auth login
   npx @smithery/cli@latest mcp publish "https://your-deployed-url/mcp" \
     -n yusufkaraaslan/skill-seekers
   

CLI Authentication (already done)

# Install via npx (no global install needed)
npx @smithery/cli@latest auth login
npx @smithery/cli@latest namespace show   # Should show: yusufkaraaslan

After Publishing

Update the server page with metadata:

Display name: Skill Seekers — AI Skill & RAG Toolkit

Description:

Transform 18 source types into AI-ready skills and RAG knowledge. Ingest documentation sites, GitHub repos, PDFs, Jupyter notebooks, videos, Confluence, Notion, Slack/Discord exports, and more. Package for 21+ LLM platforms including Claude, GPT, Gemini, LangChain, LlamaIndex, and vector databases.

Tags: ai, rag, documentation, skills, preprocessing, mcp, knowledge-base, vector-database

User Installation

Once published, users can add the server to their MCP client:

# Via Smithery CLI (adds to Claude Desktop, Cursor, etc.)
smithery mcp add yusufkaraaslan/skill-seekers --client claude

# Or configure manually — users need skill-seekers installed:
pip install skill-seekers[mcp]

Manual MCP Configuration

For clients that use JSON config (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "skill-seekers": {
      "command": "python",
      "args": ["-m", "skill_seekers.mcp.server_fastmcp"]
    }
  }
}

Maintenance

• Update description/tags on major releases
• No code changes needed — users always get the latest via pip install

Notes

• Smithery CLI v4.7.0 removed the --transport stdio flag from the docs
• The CLI publish command only supports URL-based (external) publishing
• For local/stdio servers, use the web UI at smithery.ai/servers/new
• The namespace and server entity are already created; only the release needs to succeed
