Install

How do I install the emdly MCP server?

emdly is a hosted endpoint at https://emdly.com/mcp, so there is nothing to install locally. Ready-made configuration for Claude, Cursor, VS Code, Codex and 5 more is on this page, copied from each client's own documentation.

MCP tools · 9 exposed · ~1,334 tokens

The tools this component advertises to a client, with an estimated token cost for each. Expand a tool to see its parameters and schema. The per-tool counts are indicative and are not scored directly; the schema's total context footprint is one signal in Schema Quality & AI Usability. A tool's description is untrusted text the model reads on every call, which is what makes this list a security surface and not just an inventory: how tool poisoning works →

Tool Tokens
brain_get ~78

Read one Brain file by name (e.g. coding-conventions.md), across your brains and brains shared with you. Needs your agent bearer token.

NameTypeReqDescription
brainstring–Optional brain to read from (owner-handle/name for shared brains). Omit to search all your brains.
namestringyesFile name including .md

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

brain_list ~119

List the files in your Brains (named sets of private Markdown memory), including brains shared with you. Needs your agent bearer token. Returns the brain, your role in it, name, folder, size, whether the file is in the agent context and shared with members, and when it changed.

NameTypeReqDescription
brainstring–Optional brain name; for a brain shared with you, owner-handle/name (e.g. jan/Team). Omit to list every brain.
folderstring–Optional folder filter, e.g. Engineering.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

brain_search ~147

Use this BEFORE answering anything about the user's own context — their projects, conventions, decisions, people, infrastructure, past work. Searches the user's Brain files (their brains plus those shared with them); every word of the query is matched on its own, case-insensitively, and files are ranked by how many words hit. Returns the matching files with the surrounding lines so you can decide what to brain_get. Needs a signed-in user.

NameTypeReqDescription
brainstring–Optional brain to search (owner-handle/name for shared brains). Omit to search all.
querystringyesKeywords to look for; each word is matched on its own, case-insensitively.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

brain_write ~169

Create or update a Brain file. Writes to your default brain unless you name one; shared brains need editor access. Replaces the whole body (use mode "append" to add to the end); the previous body is kept as a version. Credentials are refused — the Brain is memory, not a vault. Needs your agent bearer token.

NameTypeReqDescription
bodystringyesMarkdown content.
brainstring–Brain to write into (owner-handle/name for shared brains, needs editor access). Omit for your default brain.
folderstring–Folder, e.g. Company. New files default to "Agent".
modestring–replace (default) or append.
namestringyesFile name ending in .md, e.g. customer-faq.md

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get_collection ~80

Curated bundles of skills. Without an argument: list the available collections (slug, name, size). With a slug: the skills in that collection, in order — then call install_skill for each one the user wants (usually all).

NameTypeReqDescription
collectionstring–Collection slug, e.g. laravel-starter. Omit to list all collections.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

get_skill ~84

Read a skill's Markdown to inspect it (does not install anything). To install, call install_skill — it returns the file plus the exact path to write it to. Pass version to pin one.

NameTypeReqDescription
skillstringyesowner/name, e.g. opsmith/jira-ticket-scorer
versioninteger–Pin a version number; omit for latest.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

install_skill ~308

Install a skill into the agent you are running in. Returns the complete skill file and the exact path to write it to — YOU must then create that file verbatim (Claude Code: ~/.claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md, so it becomes available as /<name> in every project; other agents: ./skills/<name>.md) and tell the user where it is. Counts the install. Use target=hermes for Hermes Agent, target=generic for any other agent, scope=project to keep a skill inside the current Claude Code project only (.claude/skills, committable for the team). When emdly agent hosting is enabled and you have a hosted agent, pass agent= to install there instead.

NameTypeReqDescription
agentstring–Hosted agent name (only when emdly agent hosting is enabled and you have one).
scopestring–Claude Code only: user (default, ~/.claude/skills, available in every project) or project (.claude/skills in the current project — only when the user asks for a project-local install).
skillstringyesowner/name, e.g. opsmith/jira-ticket-scorer
targetstring–Where the file goes: claude-code (default) → ~/.claude/skills/<name>/SKILL.md; hermes → ~/.hermes/skills/<category>/<name>/SKILL.md; generic → ./skills/<name>.md.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

search_skills ~180

Use this FIRST, before any non-trivial task, to find a ready-made skill in the emdly catalog (reviewed Markdown playbooks for AI agents). Query with 1–3 short keywords naming the kind of work (e.g. "code review", "jira", "seo audit"); words are matched independently, so a sentence works too. If the result is empty, retry with a single noun, or send an empty query for the top skills. Returns ranked skills with their owner/name id, category, description and install command.

NameTypeReqDescription
categorystring–Optional category slug or name, e.g. code-review.
querystringyes1–3 short keywords for the kind of work (each word is matched on its own against name, description, tags, category and author). Empty = the most popular skills.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.

submit_skill ~169

Submit a skill to emdly for review (needs sign-in). Creates it under your account — or a new version if you already own one with this name — runs the automated checks and the AI safety scan, and queues it for a human reviewer. Nothing is published by this tool; you get the check results back. The body must be a complete Markdown skill with a title and a "## License" section (MIT recommended).

NameTypeReqDescription
bodystringyesFull Markdown: # title, when to use, rules, output format, ## License
categorystring–Category name; required for a new skill.
namestringyeskebab-case skill name, unique within your account
notestring–Release note when submitting a new version of an existing skill.

No output schema declared.

No examples provided.
