MCP Tool: skills

Basic Information

Tool Name:	skills_list
Asset Name:	List Skills
Description:	Lists the skills in a skillset — a directory whose entries are skills. Returns a map from each skill's resolved path to its index information, so a caller sees where a skill lives next to what it is; read one in full with the skill-read operation. Entries that are not skills (nested directories, unrelated data) are omitted. Omit 'skillset' to list this venue's configured entry skillsets (see v/info/adapters/skills). Read-only.
Adapter:	skills
Asset Hash:	`0x0cd682e2e1f53dbc51bec5748b4341cf400a6c2b851b449a4c17163be0f06f66`

Input

Property	Type	Description
`skillset`	string	The skillset to list: a directory path whose entries are skills, e.g. 'w/skills' or 'v/skills/data'. Omit to use this venue's configured entry skillsets.

Output

Type: object

Schema: <code>{ "type": "object", "description": "A map from each skill's resolved path to its index information: {name, description, id}. 'id' is the skill's content identity — two paths with the same id are the same skill. Empty when the skillset holds no skills. A skillset that does not resolve, or that the caller may not read, yields an empty map rather than an error: listing is a survey." }</code>

MCP Tool Usage Examples

This tool can be called via the MCP (Model Context Protocol) endpoint. Here are examples of how to use it:

JSON-RPC Call Example:

POST to https://venue-4.covia.ai/mcp

{

  "id": 1,
  "method": "tools/call",
  "params": {
    "name": "skills_list",
    "arguments": {
      "input": "your input here"
    }
  }
}

cURL Example:

curl -X POST https://venue-4.covia.ai/mcp \\
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \\
  -d '{
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": 1,
    "method": "tools/call",
    "params": {
      "name": "skills_list",
      "arguments": {
        "input": "your input here"
      }
    }
  }'

Python Example:

import requests
import json

url = "https://venue-4.covia.ai/mcp"
payload = {
    "jsonrpc": "2.0",
    "id": 1,
    "method": "tools/call",
    "params": {
        "name": "skills_list",
        "arguments": {
            "input": "your input here"
        }
    }
}

response = requests.post(url, json=payload)
result = response.json()
print(result)

JavaScript/Node.js Example:

const fetch = require('node-fetch');

const url = 'https://venue-4.covia.ai/mcp';
const payload = {
    jsonrpc: '2.0',
    id: 1,
    method: 'tools/call',
    params: {
        name: 'skills_list',
        arguments: {
            input: 'your input here'
        }
    }
};

fetch(url, {
    method: 'POST',
    headers: {
        'Content-Type': 'application/json'
    },
    body: JSON.stringify(payload)
})
.then(response => response.json())
.then(data => console.log(data));
