Установка

Выберите клиент

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json · Windows: %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "family-history-research-skill": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/emaynard/claude-family-history-research-skill",
        "~/.claude/skills/claude-family-history-research-skill"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Откройте Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config. Перезапустите после сохранения.

~/.cursor/mcp.json · .cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "family-history-research-skill": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/emaynard/claude-family-history-research-skill",
        "~/.claude/skills/claude-family-history-research-skill"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Cursor использует ту же схему mcpServers, что и Claude Desktop. Конфиг проекта приоритетнее глобального.

VS Code → Cline → MCP Servers → Edit

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "family-history-research-skill": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/emaynard/claude-family-history-research-skill",
        "~/.claude/skills/claude-family-history-research-skill"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Щёлкните значок MCP Servers на боковой панели Cline, затем "Edit Configuration".

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "family-history-research-skill": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/emaynard/claude-family-history-research-skill",
        "~/.claude/skills/claude-family-history-research-skill"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Тот же формат, что и Claude Desktop. Перезапустите Windsurf для применения.

~/.continue/config.json

{
  "mcpServers": [
    {
      "name": "family-history-research-skill",
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/emaynard/claude-family-history-research-skill",
        "~/.claude/skills/claude-family-history-research-skill"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Continue использует массив объектов серверов, а не map.

~/.config/zed/settings.json

{
  "context_servers": {
    "family-history-research-skill": {
      "command": {
        "path": "git",
        "args": [
          "clone",
          "https://github.com/emaynard/claude-family-history-research-skill",
          "~/.claude/skills/claude-family-history-research-skill"
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

Добавьте в context_servers. Zed перезагружается автоматически.

claude mcp add family-history-research-skill -- git clone https://github.com/emaynard/claude-family-history-research-skill ~/.claude/skills/claude-family-history-research-skill

Однострочная команда. Проверить: claude mcp list. Удалить: claude mcp remove.

Сценарии использования

Реальные сценарии: Family History Research Skill

Plan a research session for one ancestor's birth date

👤 Genealogists ⏱ ~15 min intermediate

Когда использовать: You don't know where to look next for an ancestor stuck pre-1850.

Предварительные требования

Server/skill installed and authenticated — See repo README

Поток

Frame

Using the genealogy skill, frame a research question for finding John Smith's birth date (b. ~1820, Cork, Ireland).✓ Скопировано

→ Research question + source hierarchy
Plan

Generate a search plan with specific record sets (Irish civil registration, Catholic parish registers, US naturalization).✓ Скопировано

→ Ordered, scoped search plan

Итог: A real plan instead of random Ancestry hunts.

Подводные камни

Skill is methodology, not database. You still need subscriptions to Ancestry/FamilySearch/FindMyPast for the records themselves. — Skill is methodology, not database. You still need subscriptions to Ancestry/FamilySearch/FindMyPast for the records themselves.
