**`skill-to-mcp`** is a CLI code generator that reads a `SKILL.md` file — a plain-English description of a tool — and scaffolds a complete, runnable **MCP (Model Context Protocol) server** with:

- ✅ Correct JSON-RPC schema (`tool_name`, `description`, `inputSchema`, `outputSchema`)
- ✅ Pydantic v2 models for type-safe input/output
- ✅ MCP server boilerplate (stdio or HTTP SSE transport)
- ✅ `pyproject.toml` ready for `pip install`
- ✅ Auto-generated `README.md` with usage instructions

## Why?

Describing a tool in Markdown is **more readable, versionable, and composable** than hand-writing JSON-RPC schemas. `skill-to-mcp` bridges the gap between *"I know what my tool does"* and *"I have a working MCP server."*

## Apify Actor

Run skill-to-mcp on the [Apify platform](https://apify.com/):

```bash
docker build -t skill-to-mcp .
docker run -e DEEPSEEK_API_KEY=sk-... skill-to-mcp
```

The Apify Actor accepts the same inputs as the CLI via a web form:
