Details
From the project READMETAOS connector
Talent Augmentation OS (TAOS) is a personalised AI coaching layer for the AI you already use. It speeds you up where you are strong, coaches you where you are growing, and keeps the skills you care about from quietly atrophying under AI use.
This repository holds the thin skills and connector that link your AI client to the hosted TAOS service. The assessment engine, the coaching method, and your profile all live server-side and are delivered over your authenticated connection. Nothing proprietary lives in this repo: the skills only orchestrate calls to the hosted tools.

How it works
TAOS rates your expertise per domain, then matches each task to the right mode: accelerate your expert work, coach your growth areas, protect skills at risk, or hand judgement calls back to you. Your profile is portable and follows you across AI vendors.

New to MCP?
From what the protocol is to installing your first server, these answers cover most first questions.
An open protocol that defines how AI applications connect to external tools and data in a uniform way. Clients talk to the model; MCP servers provide tools, resources and prompt templates. They exchange standard messages, so one server can be reused by many clients.
