Import a skill from GitHub

Sync a skill into MCP Market from a GitHub repository or subfolder.

Import an existing skill from a GitHub repository or subfolder. The skill stays linked to the source, so pushing to GitHub updates the skill the next time you sync.

Import from a repository

Open the Add skill modal

Go to Skills and click Add skill.

Choose the import option

Choose Import from GitHub.

Paste the GitHub URL

Paste a repo URL (https://github.com/owner/repo) or a subfolder URL (https://github.com/owner/repo/tree/main/skills/my-skill). The path you point at must contain a SKILL.md at its root.

Import

Click Import.

Your skill appears in Skills, synced from the source repo.

What gets imported

The SKILL.md at the URL is required. MCP Market also pulls every other file in the same folder (such as a references/ directory or scripts), so multi-file skills work as long as the entry point is SKILL.md. Files outside the folder you pasted are not imported.

Read-only behavior

Imported skills are read-only in MCP Market. Updates pushed to the source repo are picked up the next time you sync.

You can still install the skill into toolkits and download specific versions. To switch the source repo for an existing skill, delete the skill and re-import from the new URL.

Private repositories

Public repositories work out of the box. Private repositories need to be enabled at the platform level.

To import skills from a private repository, contact support@mcpmarket.com.
