thelibrarian A skill librarian MCP server — your agents stop carrying the whole skill collection in context and start asking for the one right book. How it started One question in a chat: "I'm sure you know better than the internet what you need to get better. What's the best workflow with Claude Code? Installing skills and just you pick the best? More the better? Less is more?" The answer: less is more. Every installed skill costs tokens and adds triggering ambiguity — with 50 skills, descriptions overlap and the wrong one fires; with 8 sharp ones, triggering is nearly deterministic.
