Skills and MCP Servers
Extend your agents with Agent Skills and Model Context Protocol servers.
Skills and MCP servers extend what your agents can do. Agent Skills package reusable instructions, workflows, reference materials, and scripts so agents can apply specialized expertise on demand. MCP servers add external tools and data sources, like browsers, issue trackers, error trackers, logs, and analytics.
Superconductor supports custom skills and MCP servers provided in your repos by default. We also offer Superconductor-provided skills and MCPs that you can enable from Project Settings. Both apply to every agent in the project.
Skills
Skills are built on an open standard and work with any Superconductor agent. Enable Superconductor-provided skills from Project Settings -> Skills and MCPs. All available Superconductor skills are disabled by default in new projects. Once a skill is enabled, just ask your agent in the chat to generate an image, analyze a video, or use another supported capability.
Available skills
- Video Understanding - Analyze videos up to an hour long. Supports local files (mp4, mov, webm, avi, mkv) and YouTube links.
- Audio Understanding - Transcribe and analyze audio up to 9.5 hours long. Supports mp3, wav, m4a, ogg, flac, and YouTube links.
- Image Generation - Generate images from text descriptions. Can use existing images or videos as style references.
- Video Generation - Create 4-8 second videos from text prompts. Supports image-to-video animation with native audio.
- Text to Speech - Convert text to natural-sounding speech. 30 voices, 24 languages, automatic language detection.
All skills require a Google Gemini API key configured at the workspace or project level.
Custom skills from your repos
You can also add custom skills by including them in your repo. Superconductor picks up agent-specific skill directories and makes them available:
| Agent | Skills directories |
|---|---|
| Claude Code | [repo]/.claude/skills/ or [repo]/.agents/skills/ |
| Codex | [repo]/.codex/skills/ or [repo]/.agents/skills/ |
| Gemini CLI | [repo]/.gemini/skills/ or [repo]/.agents/skills/ |
| OpenCode | [repo]/.opencode/skills/ or [repo]/.agents/skills/ |
| Amp | [repo]/.agents/skills/ |
The [repo]/.agents/skills/ path is part of the Agent Skills open standard and works across all agents. If multiple repos define a skill with the same name, the first repo alphabetically wins.
Skills use cases
Some examples of what you can do with Agent Skills:
- Create visual database structure diagrams automatically
- Analyze competitor demo videos to produce competitive analysis reports
- Generate multiple landing page redesign mockups from text descriptions
- Identify bugs from customer call recordings
- Extract customer testimonials from YouTube videos for your website
MCP servers
Configure Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers to extend agent capabilities with external services, databases, and APIs during implementations. MCP server settings apply to all agents in the project.
Superconductor-provided MCP servers:
- Playwright MCP - Let agents control a browser for UI testing, screenshots, and console checks.
- Atlassian Rovo MCP - Search, fetch, create, update, and transition Jira work through Atlassian Rovo MCP.
- PostHog MCP - Query feature flags, insights, events, logs, and error tracking.
- Sentry MCP - Query production errors, stack traces, releases, and issue context.
- Better Stack MCP - Query logs, traces, uptime, incidents, dashboards, and on-call context.
You can also add custom MCP servers from your repos.
