Resources

Behavior Rules

1. 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.
2. Selectable MCPs: Users can choose to install only specific MCPs; follow the user's selection (--mcp can be repeated).
3. Skills: Unless --no-skills is 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 Claude Code MCP Config

• User-level config: ~/.claude.json (Windows: %USERPROFILE%\.claude.json). If using directory format, use the corresponding config under ~/.claude/.
• If it already exists, merge into the existing mcpServers; do not overwrite other MCPs.
• Config details:
  • Gate (main): stdio, command: npx, args: ["-y", "gate-mcp"], optional env for API keys
  • gate-cex-pub: type: http, url only (remote CEX public; no extra headers)
  • gate-cex-ex: type: http, url for /mcp/exchange only; OAuth2 is completed in the client when prompted
  • Gate-Dex: http, url + headers["x-api-key"] = MCP_AK_8W2N7Q + Authorization = Bearer ${GATE_MCP_TOKEN}
  • Gate-Info / Gate-News: http, url

3. Install gate-skills (all)

• Pull all subdirectories under skills/ from https://github.com/gate/gate-skills and copy them to ~/.claude/skills/ (or the corresponding directory for the current environment).
• Add --no-skills when 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 reopen Claude Code or start a new session to load the MCPs.
• Local API Key: If Gate (main) is used for trading via API keys, direct the user to https://www.gate.com/myaccount/profile/api-key/manage and set GATE_API_KEY / GATE_API_SECRET in the Gate entry env.
• Remote Exchange OAuth2: If gate-cex-ex was installed, the user completes Gate OAuth2 in the browser when the client prompts (scopes: market, profile, trade, wallet, account).
• Gate-Dex Authorization: If Gate-Dex was installed and a query returns an authorization required message, prompt the user to first open https://web3.gate.com/ to create or bind a wallet, then complete OAuth via the link the assistant provides.

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 --mcp is passed; pass multiple --mcp to install only specified ones; --no-skills installs MCP only.
• The DEX x-api-key is fixed as MCP_AK_8W2N7Q and written to the config.
