Connect your AI to your company's skills
Your manager sent you a staff key by email. Add it to the AI app you already use and it will read the skills your team published, always the latest version. It takes about two minutes.
Paste the key from your email
Every snippet contains <YOUR_KEY>. Replace it with the full key from your email: the cek_ prefix included, nothing else around it (no spaces, no quotes). This page never shows or asks for your key.
Other apps
Any other MCP client that takes a JSON server entry.
Steps
- 1Find where your app keeps its MCP servers, usually a JSON file or a settings screen.
- 2Add the entry below, renaming fields if your app expects different ones (the address and the Authorization header are what matter).
- 3Replace <YOUR_KEY> with the key from your email, then save the file.
- 4If the app cannot send an Authorization header, use the address with the key in it instead.
JSON
{
"mcpServers": {
"coreskill": {
"url": "<YOUR_HUB_URL>",
"transport": "http",
"headers": {
"Authorization": "Bearer <YOUR_KEY>"
}
}
}
}Address with the key in it
This app cannot send headers, so the key goes at the end of the address. Replace <YOUR_KEY> after the last slash.
Key in the URL
Only use this for clients that can't send headers. The key ends up in proxy and server access logs.

Prompt
List my skillsThe AI calls list_skills and answers with the skills you can use. An empty list is not an error: nothing has been shared with your department yet.
Troubleshooting
- 401, unauthorized or invalid key
- The key is wrong, revoked or expired. Check you pasted the whole key with no spaces and kept "Bearer " in front of it. If it still fails, ask your manager for a new key.
- Connected, but no skills listed
- Nothing has been shared with your department yet, or you are in a different department than expected. Ask your manager which skill servers your department can see.
- The connector shows no tools
- The snippet still contains <YOUR_KEY> or <YOUR_HUB_URL>, or the app was not restarted. Fix the placeholders, restart the app and check again.
- Lost the key or deleted the email
- The key is shown only once and cannot be recovered. Ask your manager to issue a new one; the old one can be revoked.
- It worked, then suddenly stopped
- The key was revoked or expired, or your access changed. Ask your manager.
