MyAider Skill Importer

Purpose

Automate the process of importing skills from the MyAider MCP server into agent skills. This skill retrieves available skills, lets the user choose which ones to import, and creates proper skill files for each using existing skill-creator skill.

MANDATORY WORKFLOW

Step 0 — REQUIRED: Discover MyAider MCP Server Name and Check skill-creator Skill

Note on naming convention: MCP tool identifiers follow the format mcp__<server-name>__<tool-name>. The server name is whatever the user chose when configuring the MCP — it may not be myaider. Always discover the actual name rather than assuming it.

The MyAider MCP server exposes a distinctively named tool called get_myaider_skills. Because this name is unique to MyAider, searching for it avoids conflicts with other MCP servers.

Phase A — Discover the server name

Search your available tools for any tool whose name is get_myaider_skills. Use whatever tool-discovery mechanism your agent supports (e.g., listing available tools, searching by name). The full tool identifier will be in the form mcp__<server-name>__get_myaider_skills.

Extract the server name from the middle segment and store it as {SERVER_NAME}. Use mcp__{SERVER_NAME}__get_myaider_skills (and mcp__{SERVER_NAME}__get_myaider_skill_updates) for all subsequent calls.

Phase B — Branch on the result

• Exactly 1 match found → Extract {SERVER_NAME} from the tool identifier, proceed silently to Step 1.

• 0 matches found → Inform the user that MyAider MCP needs to be set up first:

  The MyAider MCP server doesn't appear to be configured. To use this skill, you need to set up the MyAider MCP server first.

  Setup Instructions:

  1. Go to https://www.myaider.ai/mcp
  2. Follow the instructions to configure the MyAider MCP server for your agent
  3. Once configured, come back and ask me to import your MyAider skills

  Do NOT proceed until the user confirms MyAider is configured.

• 2 or more matches found → List all discovered server names and ask the user to confirm which one is their MyAider instance. Use the user's answer as {SERVER_NAME}.

Check if skill-creator skill is available; if not, ask the user to install skill-creator.

Step 1 — REQUIRED: Get Available Skills

Call mcp__{SERVER_NAME}__get_myaider_skills (using the server name discovered in Step 0) with an empty object {} to retrieve all available skills from MyAider.

Step 2 — REQUIRED: Present Skills to User

Present the list of skills to the user with their descriptions. Ask them to choose:

• "All" - import every skill
• Or specify which specific skills they want (by name)

Wait for user confirmation before proceeding.

Step 3 — REQUIRED: For Each Selected Skill

For each skill the user wants to import:

1. Extract the skill specification from the getSkills result:

   • Skill name
   • Description (from the Usage Instructions or summary)
   • Usage Instructions (the main content)
   • Tools with FULL usage details: Extract each tool's name, description, and parameter schema from the "Tools" section in the getSkills result

2. Create a properly formatted skill using skill-creator: YOU MUST create the skill automatically instead of ask user to do it manually. YOU MUST use the Skill tool to invoke skill-creator:skill-creator with this template:

   Create a new skill called "[skill-name]" based on the following specification:
   
   ## Skill Name
   [skill-name]
   
   ## Description
   [description - make it comprehensive with triggering guidance]
   
   ## Metadata
   Add the following fields to the skill's YAML frontmatter (in addition to name and description):
   - source: myaider
   - updated_at: [ISO 8601 timestamp from the remote skill, e.g. 2026-03-06T12:00:00Z]
   
   ## Usage Instructions
   [full usage instructions from the myaider skill]
   
   ## Tools (MCP {SERVER_NAME})
   This skill uses the following MCP tools from {SERVER_NAME}. Include the full tool descriptions and parameter schemas BELOW to optimize token usage - the skill should NOT rely on the MCP protocol to get tool descriptions:
   
   ### [tool-name-1]
   [full tool description from get_myaider_skills result]
   
   **Parameters:**
   [parameter schema - include all parameters with their types, required/optional status, and descriptions]
   
   ### [tool-name-2]
   [full tool description from get_myaider_skills result]
   
   **Parameters:**
   [parameter schema - include all parameters with their types, required/optional status, and descriptions]
   

   Critical: The extracted tool descriptions and schemas must be included directly in the skill to avoid MCP protocol overhead. This optimizes token usage by enabling the skill to function without calling the MCP protocol for tool introspection.

3. Confirm creation to the user after each skill is created

Step 4 — REQUIRED: Summarize

After all selected skills are created, provide a summary:

• List of successfully created skills
• File locations
• Any skills that failed (if any)

Upgrade Workflow

Trigger this workflow when the user asks to upgrade, update, or sync their MyAider skills.

Upgrade Step 0 — Discover server name

Same as the main Step 0. Search for get_myaider_skills to find {SERVER_NAME}. If MCP is not configured, show setup instructions and stop.

Upgrade Step 1 — Fetch remote update info

Call mcp__{SERVER_NAME}__get_myaider_skill_updates with an empty object {}. This returns the latest skill definitions with their updated_at timestamps.

Upgrade Step 2 — Read local MyAider skills

Find all locally installed skills that have source: myaider in their YAML frontmatter. For each, read the updated_at value. Build a map of skill-name → local updated_at.

Upgrade Step 3 — Compare and classify

For each skill returned in Upgrade Step 1:

• Remote updated_at is newer than local → mark for upgrade
• Skill does not exist locally → mark for new install
• Remote updated_at is same or older → skip (already up to date)

Present the classification to the user (what will be upgraded, what is new, what is already current) and ask for confirmation before proceeding.

Upgrade Step 4 — Upgrade outdated skills

For each skill marked for upgrade, invoke skill-creator:skill-creator with the full updated specification (same template as the main Step 3, including refreshed updated_at and tool schemas). skill-creator will overwrite the existing skill file.

Upgrade Step 5 — Install new skills

For each skill marked for new install, invoke skill-creator:skill-creator exactly as in the main Step 3 (import workflow).

Upgrade Step 6 — Summarize

Provide a final report:

• Skills upgraded (name + old → new updated_at)
• New skills installed
• Skills already up to date (skipped)
• Any failures

Important Constraints

• Always discover the MCP server name by searching for get_myaider_skills first (Step 0) — do NOT hardcode myaider or any other name
• Always call get_myaider_skills after confirming MCP is configured — do NOT guess what skills are available
• Always extract and include FULL tool descriptions and schemas from get_myaider_skills — this is critical to optimize token usage. The created skill should work without needing MCP protocol tool introspection
• Use the discovered {SERVER_NAME} consistently for all MCP tool calls and in generated skill files
• Always include source: myaider and updated_at in the YAML frontmatter of every created or upgraded skill — these fields are required for the upgrade workflow
• Always wait for user confirmation before creating or upgrading skills
• Create/upgrade skills one at a time using skill-creator
• Keep the skill-creator conversation focused on each skill creation
