⚠️ DEPRECATED: MCP Configuration Skill
STATUS: This skill is deprecated and should not be used.
Why This Skill Was Deprecated
During the MCP cleanup (December 2025), we simplified the MCP architecture from 6 custom servers to 3 production-ready servers:
- flash-sidekick - Dual-engine Gemini wrapper (Flash 2.5 Lite + Pro 2.5)
- playwright - Browser automation testing
- docker - Container management
Servers That Were Removed
- ❌ ConfigurationRegistry (
configuration-server.py) - Moved to_legacy_archive/ - ❌ CodebaseDocumentation (
documentation-server.py) - Moved to_legacy_archive/ - ❌ GenKitFlowRegistry - Never implemented
- ❌ APIContractValidator - Never implemented
- ❌ DesignSystemServer - Never implemented
- ❌ FirestoreDataAccessServer - Never implemented
Reasons for Removal
- Reduced Complexity: Custom servers added maintenance overhead
- Caching Issues: Led to stale configuration states
- npm exec Errors: Caused persistent CI/CD failures
- Redundancy: File system tools provide the same functionality
- Single Source of Truth: Direct file access is more reliable
Migration Guide
Old Approach (Using This Deprecated Skill)
method: list_scripts
Returns: Cached list of 84 scripts
Risk: Cache may be stale
New Approach (Recommended)
# List all scripts directly
find scripts/ backend/scripts/ .claude/scripts/ -type f -name "*.sh" -o -name "*.py"
# Or use grep_search/find_by_name tools
grep_search for specific scripts
find_by_name for pattern matching
Environment Configuration
Instead of using the MCP server:
# Development
cat .env.development
# Staging
cat .env.staging
# Production
cat .env.production
# Validation
./scripts/validate-env.sh
What To Use Instead
| Old MCP Method | New Approach |
|---|---|
list_scripts |
find_by_name tool with pattern matching |
get_environment |
Read .env.* files directly |
validate_all |
Run ./scripts/validate-env.sh |
render_template |
Use envsubst or native templating |
index |
Direct file system queries |
