Skills-ContextManager

Don’t pollute your AI agent’s context with 1,000 skills. Use Skills-ContextManager, a self-hosted web UI for managing AI skills and workflows by providing skills to an AI agent via MCP only when needed. Simply add skills to your library and enable or disable them with a toggle. Choose whether a skill is always loaded into context or dynamically activated when the AI agent determines it’s needed.

GitHub

A self-hosted web application for managing AI skills, workflows, and contexts with full MCP (Model Context Protocol) integration. Organize, manage, and dynamically load specialized knowledge bases into any AI Agent just by toggling your Skills On/Off in simple local hosted WEB UI.

MCP Server

  • 3 Essential Tools for AI Agents:
    • get_default_skills() - Load skills with mode "always_loaded"
    • list_available_skills() - List all enabled skills with modes
    • load_full_skill_context(name) - Load dynamic skill on-demand
  • Hub-Aware: Works with active hub from multiple workspaces
  • Mode Support: "always_loaded" vs "dynamic" skill loading
  • Type Support: Both Skills and Workflows

Quick Start

# Clone the repository
git clone https://github.com/One-Man-Company/Skills-ContextManager.git
cd Skills-ContextManager

# Make setup script executable and run it
chmod +x setup.sh
./setup.sh

# Start web application
cd Skill-ContextManager && npm start

Access: http://localhost:3000

MCP configuration saved to mcp_settings.json - add this to your AI Agent's MCP settings.

⚠️ Important: Copy the content of MCP_instructions.md to your AI Agent's System prompt or rules configuration.

MCP Configuration

The setup.sh script generates mcp_settings.json with correct paths. Add it to your AI Agent's MCP settings file:

{
  "Skills-ContextManager": {
    "command": "/absolute/path/Skills-MCP/.venv/bin/python3",
    "args": ["-u", "/absolute/path/Skills-MCP/mcp_server.py"],
    "env": {}
  }
}

MCP Tools

AI Agents need only these 3 tools. Usage details are in MCP_instructions.md (system prompt):

ToolDescription
get_default_skills()Load all skills with mode "always_loaded" into context
list_available_skills()List all enabled skills with descriptions and modes
load_full_skill_context(name)Load a specific skill on-demand (for mode "dynamic")
