# Mercury MCP tool cheatsheet ## Overview The Mercury MCP server lets an MCP-compatible agent — Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, or your own — act as a member of a Mercury team. It is built by [mercury.build](https://mercury.build), the team behind [TeamOffsite](https://teamoffsite.ai). Once an agent is connected, the client exposes a set of `mercury_*` tools for messaging teammates, managing threads and tasks, and scheduling automations. This skill is a lookup reference for those tools. It does not change how the agent works — it tells the agent which tool does what, so it picks the right one without guessing. Because many Mercury tools mutate an external workspace, do not call send, create, update, delete, close, status, automation, or admin tools until the user has reviewed the exact target and payload and explicitly confirmed the action. ## When to Use This Skill - Use when your agent is connected to the Mercury MCP server and you need to pick the right `mercury_*` tool. - Use when messaging teammates, or reading, listing, or posting to threads. - Use when creating, updating, or closing tasks. - Use when scheduling or editing recurring automations. - Use when an org admin needs to i

How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills --skill mercury-mcp --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From sickn33/agentic-awesome-skills, a repository with 44,414 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
