Skills vs MCP servers
what's the difference?Skillsthe “what to do”
A skillA reusable, structured prompt/workflow with recommended models, an example prompt, and compatible tools. packages know-how — instructions, an example promptA ready-to-use prompt template that demonstrates how to invoke the skill., and recommended models — so an agent performs a task consistently. Skills add knowledge, not new connections.
MCP serversthe “how to connect”
An MCP serverModel Context Protocol server — a standard way to expose tools, resources, and prompts to AI agents and IDEs. gives an agent new capabilities by connecting it to real systems (databases, APIs, files) over a transportHow the client talks to the server: stdio (local process), SSE, or HTTP streaming.. MCP adds connections and actions, not task instructions.
Rule of thumb: reach for a skill when you need the model to do a task well, and an MCP server when you need it to reach a tool or system. They compose — a skill can rely on tools an MCP server provides.
