Same command for any agent — swap --agent for claude-code, codex, cursor.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Generate TypeScript MCP Server Create a complete Model Context Protocol (MCP) server in TypeScript using the **MCP TypeScript SDK v2** with the following specifications: ## Requirements 1. **Project Structure**: Create a new TypeScript/Node.js project with proper directory structure 2. **NPM Packages**: The v1 monolithic `@modelcontextprotocol/sdk` package is retired. Use the focused v2 packages: - `@modelcontextprotocol/server` — server implementation (stdio transport via the `@modelcontextprotocol/server/stdio` subpath) - `@modelcontextprotocol/node` — Node HTTP transport (`NodeStreamableHTTPServerTransport`), or a framework adapter: `@modelcontextprotocol/express`, `@modelcontextprotocol/hono`, `@modelcontextprotocol/fastify` — each adapter requires its peer framework to be installed alongside it (e.g. `@modelcontextprotocol/express` + `express`) - `@modelcontextprotocol/core` — shared protocol schemas (import `*Schema` constants from here, not from `sdk/types.js`) - `zod@^4.2` — v2 requires Zod 4.2+; do not use zod@3 3. **Runtime**: Node.js 20+ (v2 minimum); ESM-first with `"type": "module"` (a CommonJS build is also shipped, so `require()` works if needed) 4. **Server Type**

What does the typescript-mcp-server-generator skill do?
Generate a complete MCP server project in TypeScript using the MCP TypeScript SDK v2 (@modelcontextprotocol/server) with tools, resources, and proper configuration
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add github/awesome-copilot --skill typescript-mcp-server-generator --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 github/awesome-copilot, a repository with 37,432 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.
