README

[!WARNING] **DEPRECATED.** This package is superseded by the **Skill Heaven Claude Code plugin**, which bundles the summon MCP server directly — nothing to install separately. See [`gaia-research/gaia-skill-heaven`](https://github.com/gaia-research/gaia-skill-heaven).

The engine that used to live in this repo now lives at `packages/skill-summon` in that monorepo, and ships esbuild-bundled straight into the plugin (`plugins/skill-heaven/mcp/skill-summon.mjs`) — no npx, no sibling checkout, no external binary, no runtime dependencies.

**The published packages stay installable.** `@gaia-research/mcp` and `skill-hell` are not being unpublished — existing `install.sh` copies and version-pinned installs keep working. Deprecated means *don't start new work here*, not *it broke*. New work should target the plugin instead.

See [`DEPRECATION.md`](DEPRECATION.md) for the full closeout notes, including the pending `npm deprecate` steps.

Gaia MCP

Agent-native Gaia Registry discovery, evidence inspection, and temporary skill summoning for [Gaia Skill Tree](https://github.com/gaia-research/gaia-skill-tree).

**Status:** [`@gaia-research/mcp@0.4.0`](https://github.com/gaia-research/gaia-mcp/releases/tag/mcp-v0.4.0) is published. It is a working prototype: its current package interface is usable, while later Heaven/Summon profile work remains separate.

Gaia MCP consumes public Registry data; it does not own or mutate the Registry.

Current package surface

The published **rich Registry/Bond package surface** has four tools:

Tool	Current purpose
`gaia_search`	Find generic and Named Skills by task and constraints.
`gaia_inspect`	Return an evidence-backed skill dossier.
`summon`	Materialize matching Named Skills into an ephemeral Skill Hell session.
`gaia_status`	Report version, Registry freshness, compatibility, counts, and available tools.
