MCP Mode

Read and strictly follow references/mcp.md, then execute this installer workflow.

• SKILL.md keeps product scope, install behavior, and user-facing guidance.
• references/mcp.md is the authoritative execution layer for preflight checks, config merge policy, and install verification.

CEX MCP modes

See gate-mcp: Local = stdio npx -y gate-mcp (API keys); Remote Public = https://api.gatemcp.ai/mcp (no auth); Remote Exchange = https://api.gatemcp.ai/mcp/exchange (Gate OAuth2). Tool naming differs between Local (abbrev) and Remote (cex_*); use each server's tools/list.

Behavior Rules

1. Default: When the user does not specify which MCPs to install, install all MCPs (main, cex-public, cex-exchange, dex, info, news) + all gate-skills.
2. Selectable MCPs: Users can choose to install only specific MCPs; follow the user's selection.
3. Skills: Unless --no-skills is passed, always install all skills from the gate-skills repository's skills/ directory.

Installation Steps

1. Confirm User Selection (MCPs)

• If the user does not specify which MCPs → install all: main, cex-public, cex-exchange, dex, info, news.
• If the user specifies "only install xxx" → install only the specified MCPs.

2. Write Cursor MCP Config

• Config file: ~/.cursor/mcp.json (Windows: %APPDATA%\Cursor\mcp.json).
• If it already exists, merge into the existing mcpServers; do not overwrite other MCPs.
• Config details:
  • Gate (main): command / args / optional env
  • gate-cex-pub / gate-cex-ex: url + transport: streamable-http only (no headers)
  • Gate-Dex: url + transport + headers for x-api-key and Bearer
  • Gate-Info / Gate-News: url + transport: streamable-http

3. Install gate-skills (all)

• Pull all subdirectories under skills/ from https://github.com/gate/gate-skills and copy them to ~/.cursor/skills/ (or the corresponding directory for the current environment).
• Add --no-skills when using the script to install MCP only without skills.

4. Post-Installation Prompt

• Inform the user of the installed MCP list and "all gate-skills have been installed" (unless --no-skills was used).
• Prompt to restart Cursor.
• Local API Key: For Gate (main) → https://www.gate.com/myaccount/profile/api-key/manage
• gate-cex-ex: Complete Gate OAuth2 when Cursor prompts on first connect.
• Gate-Dex: Wallet + OAuth guidance as in gate-mcp (https://web3.gate.com/).

Script

Use the scripts/install.sh in this skill directory for one-click installation.

• Usage:
  ./scripts/install.sh [--mcp main|cex-public|cex-exchange|dex|info|news] ... [--no-skills]
  Installs all MCPs when no --mcp is passed; pass multiple --mcp to install only specified ones; --no-skills installs MCP only.
• The DEX x-api-key is fixed as MCP_AK_8W2N7Q and written to mcp.json.

After downloading this skill from GitHub, run from the repository root:
bash scripts/install.sh
Or (MCP only):
bash scripts/install.sh --no-skills
