MCP Mode
Read and strictly follow references/mcp.md, then execute this installer workflow.
SKILL.mdkeeps product scope, install behavior, and user-facing guidance.references/mcp.mdis the authoritative execution layer for preflight checks, config merge policy, and install verification.
CEX MCP modes
See gate-mcp: Local = stdio npx -y gate-mcp (API keys); Remote Public = https://api.gatemcp.ai/mcp (no auth); Remote Exchange = https://api.gatemcp.ai/mcp/exchange (Gate OAuth2). Tool naming differs between Local (abbrev) and Remote (cex_*); use each server's tools/list.

Behavior Rules
- Default: When the user does not specify which MCPs to install, install all MCPs (
main,cex-public,cex-exchange,dex,info,news) + all gate-skills. - Selectable MCPs: Users can choose to install only specific MCPs; follow the user's selection.
- Skills: Unless
--no-skillsis passed, always install all skills from the gate-skills repository's skills/ directory.
Installation Steps
1. Confirm User Selection (MCPs)
- If the user does not specify which MCPs → install all:
main,cex-public,cex-exchange,dex,info,news. - If the user specifies "only install xxx" → install only the specified MCPs.
2. Write Cursor MCP Config
- Config file:
~/.cursor/mcp.json(Windows:%APPDATA%\Cursor\mcp.json). - If it already exists, merge into the existing
mcpServers; do not overwrite other MCPs. - Config details:
- Gate (main):
command/args/ optionalenv - gate-cex-pub / gate-cex-ex:
url+transport: streamable-httponly (no headers) - Gate-Dex:
url+transport+headersfor x-api-key and Bearer - Gate-Info / Gate-News:
url+transport: streamable-http
- Gate (main):
3. Install gate-skills (all)
- Pull all subdirectories under skills/ from https://github.com/gate/gate-skills and copy them to
~/.cursor/skills/(or the corresponding directory for the current environment). - Add
--no-skillswhen using the script to install MCP only without skills.
4. Post-Installation Prompt
- Inform the user of the installed MCP list and "all gate-skills have been installed" (unless --no-skills was used).
- Prompt to restart Cursor.
- Local API Key: For Gate (main) → https://www.gate.com/myaccount/profile/api-key/manage
- gate-cex-ex: Complete Gate OAuth2 when Cursor prompts on first connect.
- Gate-Dex: Wallet + OAuth guidance as in gate-mcp (https://web3.gate.com/).
Script
Use the scripts/install.sh in this skill directory for one-click installation.
- Usage:
./scripts/install.sh [--mcp main|cex-public|cex-exchange|dex|info|news] ... [--no-skills]
Installs all MCPs when no--mcpis passed; pass multiple--mcpto install only specified ones;--no-skillsinstalls MCP only. - The DEX x-api-key is fixed as
MCP_AK_8W2N7Qand written to mcp.json.
After downloading this skill from GitHub, run from the repository root:
bash scripts/install.sh
Or (MCP only):
bash scripts/install.sh --no-skills
