Publish Skills documentation with VitePress and Cloudflare Pages (#143)
Publish the Skills extension as a browsable VitePress site on Cloudflare
Pages, using the same documentation theme as ext-tasks and reusing the
existing source documents.

- Follow the Tasks site's structure: a substantive overview at `/` and a
separate stable specification page. The small `index.md` uses native
VitePress includes to reuse excerpts from the released specification,
rather than duplicating its prose.
- Link to the condensed overview on the MCP website.
- Render `specification/stable/skills.mdx` through a small Markdown
include, preserving the released specification unchanged.
- Add local search, section outlines, MCP branding, source edit links,
and a Specification navigation item with a Stable sidebar entry. Keep
the full specification at `/specification/stable/skills`.
- Build pull requests, including fork contributions, in read-only GitHub
Actions CI.
- Use the existing Cloudflare Pages Git integration for publishing.
Remove the GitHub Pages deployment workflow and project-path
configuration.

## Validation

- `npm run docs:build` passed with VitePress 1.6.4.
- Checked that the build emits an overview and a separate specification
page; verified included excerpt boundaries, internal links and anchors,
specification source edit links, and the rendered MDX callout.
- `git diff --check` passed.
- The build emits the existing large-chunk warning from the diagram
dependencies.
- Cloudflare deployment itself has not been run from this workspace.

## Publishing settings

DNS and Cloudflare Pages setup are ready separately. The existing Pages
project should use:

| Setting | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Repository | `modelcontextprotocol/ext-skills` |
| Production branch | `main` |
| Root directory | Repository root |
| Build command | `npm run docs:build` |
| Build output directory | `.vitepress/dist` |
| Node.js | `22` (set `NODE_VERSION=22` in Pages) |
| Custom domain | `skills.extensions.modelcontextprotocol.io` |

Cloudflare installs dependencies and builds from the committed npm
lockfile. The site is served at the domain root with clean URLs.
Publishing is handled by Cloudflare's connected Git integration; no
GitHub Pages environment, Pages permissions, or Cloudflare deployment
secrets in GitHub Actions are required.

After merge, verify the production deployment and custom domain in the
existing Cloudflare Pages project. One-time publishing instructions stay
in this PR description, not in a checked-in setup document.

Fork PRs receive the CI build check. Automated Cloudflare previews for
forks require the separately discussed trusted artifact-publishing
workflow; this PR does not add that workflow.

Clean and and re-organize repo docs (#146)
* docs: point README and AGENTS.md at the released spec and official docs

SEP-2640 is Final and the extension ships from specification/stable/skills.mdx,
so the README now leads with a Specification section linking the spec file,
the official docs page (modelcontextprotocol.io/extensions/skills/overview),
the published SEP, and the client matrix. The experimental banner is replaced
with a note that docs/ holds working documents; the charter, pulls, and issues
links move off the redirecting experimental-ext-skills / charter URLs.

AGENTS.md no longer names the SEP PR as the source of truth; it points agents
at the stable spec page and describes the decision-log flow against that file.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: accepted spec changes land in a draft revision, not the stable file

The stable specification is a released snapshot. README and AGENTS.md now say
accepted decision-log proposals go into a draft revision that ships as a new
release, matching the ext-tasks specification layout.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: move pre-release design documents to docs/archive

SEP-2640 is Final, so docs/ now holds only living working documents. Eight
historical documents move to docs/archive with an index explaining what each
was and what superseded it: the SEP baseline copy, why-and-when, use-cases,
approaches, skill-uri-scheme, glossary, client-mcp-support (superseded by the
official client matrix), and agent-plugins-analysis.

Files the published SEP links to by path (decisions, experimental-findings,
open-questions, problem-statement, rationale, related-work, skill-meta-keys)
stay in place so those links keep working. Cross-links are rewritten and
verified; the README contents table is trimmed to match.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: archive open-questions and skill-meta-keys

Both are pre-release documents whose outcomes live in the decision log and
the specification. The published SEP links to them by path; a companion
change in modelcontextprotocol/modelcontextprotocol repoints those links.

* docs: fix sibling links inside archived open-questions and skill-meta-keys

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: keep only the decision log and rationale in docs/

threat-model, experimental-findings, findings-template, problem-statement,
and related-work move to docs/archive with index rows. The candidates
tracker and the archived client-support survey are removed in favor of the
official extension client matrix, and links to them are repointed there.

README drops the Why and Problem Statement sections, which duplicate the
SEP's Motivation and the official overview page. CONTRIBUTING routes new
implementation findings to GitHub issues.

* docs: fix sibling links inside newly archived documents

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: add a concise implementations list

One table each for servers/SDKs and hosts, one line per entry, replacing the
retired candidates tracker and the related-work implementation tables. Seeded
from those plus PR #141 and issue #144.

* docs: put tracking links in the Status column of the implementations list

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: add a vendor/community category to the implementations list

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: replace the interim reference package with the TypeScript SDK row

The @olaservo/ext-skills package is retired in favor of first-class skills
APIs in the TypeScript SDK (typescript-sdk#2798, phase 1 in #2818). The
archived related-work page now points at implementations.md for current
information.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: drop pre-SEP rows from the implementations list

They are already recorded in the archived related-work page; the list now
points there instead. FastMCP stays because its row tracks the migration to v1.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Fable 5.1 <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs: add official SDK progress, Tachyon, and Inspector 2.6.0 to implementations

From the WG Discord channel and the SDK repos as of 2026-09-15: Go, TypeScript,
Python, and C# SDKs all have open SEP-2640 PRs (Go passes conformance); the
conformance suite merged; Inspector 2.6.0 shipped skills verification; Tachyon
reports a server implementation. Adds an "in progress" status for open PRs.

* Correct links and clarify documentation references

Updated links to SEP-2640 and clarified document references.

docs: transition from Interest Group to Working Group (#81)
* docs: transition from Interest Group to Working Group

Follow-up to modelcontextprotocol/modelcontextprotocol#2586, which
converted the charter from IG to WG.

- Rename Interest Group → Working Group in headings and prose
- Update Discord (#skills-over-mcp-wg) and Discussions
  (meeting-notes-skills-over-mcp-wg) references; channel renames
  coordinated separately
- CONTRIBUTING.md: align meeting norms with MCP group governance
  (7-day advance notice, meet.modelcontextprotocol.io) and rewrite
  Decision-Making to reflect WG authority (lazy consensus → formal
  vote → escalation), linking to the charter's Authority table
- Keep CODEOWNERS team at skills-over-mcp-ig pending access-repo
  rename; TODO comment added
- decisions.md: update present-tense preamble, log the IG → WG
  transition as a new ADR entry, and preserve historical entries

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs(contributing): link to governance/charter instead of duplicating

Meetings and Decision-Making sections now point to the MCP group
governance doc and charter for canonical rules, keeping only the
repo- or group-specific bits (notes location, coordination
channels, outputs list). Also drops a leftover "rough consensus"
IG-era phrase in the Decision Log guidelines.

Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

* docs(codeowners): fix sentence fragment in default-owner comment

"Has day-to-day governance" read as an incomplete sentence and
overstated what CODEOWNERS actually encodes (review routing, not
governance). Replace with a direct one-liner.
