Synalinks Skills

Name: Synalinks Skills (Claude Skill)
Author: SynaLinks

by SynaLinks · SynaLinks/synalinks-skills

First-party skills for Synalinks — neuro-symbolic AI framework — so Claude can author and debug Synalinks programs.

Synalinks is an open-source neuro-symbolic framework. These skills teach Claude its conventions: how to define modules, signatures, optimizers, and connect to LLMs. Use them when working in a Synalinks codebase.

      "command": "git",

        "https://github.com/SynaLinks/synalinks-skills"

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config. Restart after saving.

Cursor uses the same mcpServers schema as Claude Desktop. Project config wins over global.

VS Code → Cline → MCP Servers → Edit

  "mcpServers": {
    "synalinks-skills": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/SynaLinks/synalinks-skills"
      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Click the MCP Servers icon in the Cline sidebar, then "Edit Configuration".

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "synalinks-skills": {
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",

      ],
      "_inferred": true
    }
  }
}

Same shape as Claude Desktop. Restart Windsurf to pick up changes.

~/.continue/config.json

{
  "mcpServers": [
    {
      "name": "synalinks-skills",
      "command": "git",
      "args": [
        "clone",
        "https://github.com/SynaLinks/synalinks-skills"
      ]
    }
  ]
}

Continue uses an array of server objects rather than a map.

~/.config/zed/settings.json

{
  "context_servers": {
    "synalinks-skills": {
      "command": {
        "path": "git",
        "args": [
          "clone",
          "https://github.com/SynaLinks/synalinks-skills"
        ]
      }
    }
  }
}

Add to context_servers. Zed hot-reloads on save.

claude mcp add synalinks-skills -- git clone https://github.com/SynaLinks/synalinks-skills

One-liner. Verify with claude mcp list. Remove with claude mcp remove.
