Cursor usa o mesmo esquema mcpServers que o Claude Desktop. Config de projeto vence a global.

VS Code → Cline → MCP Servers → Edit

  "mcpServers": {
    "awesome-claude-skill-2": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",

      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Clique no ícone MCP Servers na barra lateral do Cline, depois "Edit Configuration".

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

Mesmo formato do Claude Desktop. Reinicie o Windsurf para aplicar.

~/.continue/config.json

  "mcpServers": [

      "name": "awesome-claude-skill-2",
      "command": "git",

        "~/.claude/skills/awesome-claude-skills"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

O Continue usa um array de objetos de servidor em vez de um map.

~/.config/zed/settings.json

{
  "context_servers": {
    "awesome-claude-skill-2": {
      "command": {
        "path": "git",
        "args": [

          "~/.claude/skills/awesome-claude-skills"
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

Adicione em context_servers. Zed recarrega automaticamente ao salvar.

Uma linha só. Verifique com claude mcp list. Remova com claude mcp remove.

Solução de problemas

Erros comuns e correções

Skill not invoked — Claude answers without consulting the catalog

Reference it explicitly: 'Use awesome-claude-skills to find...'.

Verificar: ls ~/.claude/skills/awesome-claude-skills/SKILL.md

SKILL.md frontmatter wrong

The catalog repo is large — ensure the clone completed fully.

Verificar: head ~/.claude/skills/awesome-claude-skills/SKILL.md

Wrong trigger keywords — Claude invents a skill instead of listing real ones

Say 'list real skills from the awesome-claude-skills catalog', not 'find me a skill that does X'.

anthropics/skills	You only want first-party Anthropic-authored skills	Smaller surface, higher baseline quality
