Contributor Guides: Provider Packages with Copilot and MCP
These guides cover one workflow: building a new provider package in this repository with VS Code Copilot’s Matimo Tool Creator agent, which checks its work with tools from Matimo’s own MCP server.
For running Matimo as an MCP server for your own agents — the matimo mcp CLI, Claude Desktop and Cursor configs, transports, auth, approval over MCP — see MCP.md.
| Guide | Read it when |
|---|---|
| SETUP_GUIDE.md | You are setting the workflow up for the first time (about 15 minutes) |
| QUICK_REFERENCE.md | You need a command, a tool input or a file path |
| MAINTENANCE_GUIDE.md | You change the SDK and need to keep the agent and skills accurate |
| NAVIGATION_MAP.md | You are looking for the right document for a task |
Building a provider by hand instead? Follow ADDING_TOOLS.md — the agent follows the same steps.
