Works with
Scaffolds complete Go module layout with official MCP SDK integration, including main server setup, tool registration, and graceful shutdown handling
Provides typed tool handlers with JSON schema validation, structured inputs/outputs, and context-aware error handling
Includes configuration management via environment variables, basic test structure, and README document
AI-first code editor with Composer
Before installing skills in Cursor, ensure your development environment meets these requirements:
node --versiongo-mcp-server-generatorExecute the skills CLI command in your project's root directory to begin installation:
Fetches go-mcp-server-generator from github/awesome-copilot and configures it for Cursor.
The CLI shows a list of agents. Use arrow keys and space to select Cursor:
Confirm successful installation by checking the skill directory location:
Restart Cursor to activate go-mcp-server-generator. Access via /go-mcp-server-generator in your agent's command palette.
We perform automated surface-level scans (Gen AI Scanner, Socket, Snyk) during installation. These checks detect common vulnerabilities but do not guarantee complete security. Always review skill source code and verify the publisher's reputation before production use.
Skills execute code in your environment. Always review source, verify the publisher, and test in isolation before production.
