What MCP servers and skills are

An MCP server is a small program that lets an AI assistant use another piece of software through the Model Context Protocol, an open standard. A PLAXIS or Revit MCP server, for example, gives the assistant actions such as "create a phase" or "list the walls in this model".

An agent skill is a folder of instructions (a SKILL.md file, sometimes with scripts) that teaches an AI agent how to do a task well: which steps to follow, which checks to run, which standard applies.

How listings are checked

Every listing is checked against its own repository, package page or vendor announcement, and dated. We describe what each project says it does; we don't rank them. A listing is marked official only when the software vendor, or the tool's own developers, publish it.
