mcp-server-dev is a Claude plugin bundling three skills that guide developers through planning and building Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers. Its entry-point skill asks about the intended use case and then recommends a deployment approach—remote streamable-HTTP, MCPB bundle, or local stdio—before handing off to a specialized skill. A second skill adds inline interactive UI elements, such as forms, pickers, and confirmation dialogs, for MCP apps running on remote servers or MCPB bundles. A third skill packages a local stdio server together with its runtime so it can be installed without a separate Node.js or Python setup. Each skill also comes with reference material covering authentication flows, tool-description writing, widget templates, manifest schemas, and security hardening.
