MCP extension reportedly lets agents load skills on demand
A user describes a Model Context Protocol extension that lets agents discover available skills on MCP servers, retrieve their metadata and load a skill’s SKILL.md file only when needed.
TLDR
A user says MCP defines an extension specifically for discovering and loading Agent Skills from MCP servers. The post describes a discover-first, load-when-needed approach rather than loading everything upfront. The author argues this makes better use of an agent’s context window—the information it can work with at once—by loading only the skill it needs.
