Initialize a new user's research assistant. Use this on first interaction or when user asks to "get started", "set up", or "introduce yourself". Also use when you don't know the user's research interests or the human memory block still has placeholder text.
Walk the user through new Thoth features since their last onboarding or update. Use when the user asks "what's new", "what changed", or "what can you do now". Also use after check_whats_new returns updates to walk through them.
Create, manage, and iterate on research plan documents in the Obsidian vault. Use when the user asks for a research plan, literature review roadmap, or when you need to formalize your own working research strategy.
Conduct deep analysis of research papers, synthesize literature, and generate comprehensive reviews. Use when user needs thorough paper analysis, literature reviews, or cross-paper synthesis.
Manage external knowledge collections (textbooks, lecture notes, background material) and search them to support research. Use when user wants to upload reference material or query foundational knowledge.
Answer questions using your existing research collection and external knowledge. Use when user asks questions about papers they have, wants summaries, or seeks insights from their knowledge base.

This skill provides comprehensive management of external MCP (Model Context Protocol) servers that can extend Thoth's capabilities with additional tools and resources.
MCP (Model Context Protocol) is a standard protocol that allows AI assistants to connect to external tool servers. By adding MCP servers, you can:
View all configured external MCP servers, their connection status, and tool counts.
Example:
Can you show me what MCP servers are configured?
Add a new external MCP server with stdio, HTTP, or SSE transport.
Example for stdio transport:
Add an MCP server called "my-filesystem" with:
- transport: stdio
- command: npx
- args: ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-filesystem", "/path/to/folder"]
- enabled: true
- auto_attach: true
Example for SSE transport:
Add an MCP server called "remote-analysis" with:
- transport: sse
- url: http://localhost:8080/mcp
- enabled: true
- auto_attach: false
Modify an existing server's configuration.
Example:
Update the "my-filesystem" server to enable auto-attach
Remove a server from the configuration (disconnects and detaches tools).
Example:
Remove the "remote-analysis" MCP server
Enable or disable a server without removing it.
Example:
Disable the "my-filesystem" server
Test connectivity to a configured MCP server.
Example:
Test the connection to the "my-filesystem" server
All MCP servers are stored in vault/thoth/_thoth/mcps.json. This file serves as the single source of truth and is monitored for changes (hot-reload enabled).
