MCP Builder

Use this skill when the user asks to create, configure, or debug an MCP server or tool integration.

Design Rules

• Prefer stdio MCP servers for local tools and HTTP/SSE for remote services.
• Keep tool schemas small, typed, and explicit. Return structured JSON where

possible.

• Put secrets in environment variables, never in committed config.
• For HTTP/SSE clients, send Accept: application/json, text/event-stream by

default unless the server explicitly requires something else.

• Add timeouts and clear error messages around external APIs.

DeepSeek Setup

Common commands:

deepseek mcp init
deepseek mcp add my-server --command node --arg server.js
deepseek mcp add remote-server --url http://127.0.0.1:3000/mcp
deepseek mcp list
deepseek mcp validate
deepseek mcp tools

HTTP/SSE entries can include per-server headers in ~/.deepseek/mcp.json when credentials or custom routing headers are required.

Workflow

1. Define the service boundary and the minimum useful tools.
2. Choose transport and credential handling.
3. Implement the server using a maintained MCP SDK when available.
4. Add the server with deepseek mcp add or edit ~/.deepseek/mcp.json.
5. Run deepseek mcp validate, then deepseek mcp tools.
6. Test one happy path and one failure path before calling it done.
