Eden MCP

Eden agent skill for Codex, Claude Code, and Cursor

Install the Eden agent skill so coding agents use the Eden MCP correctly, from sign-in recovery to scheduling posts and reading errors.

·2 min read

Paste Fetch https://eden.so/skills/eden-mcp/install.md and follow it. into your coding agent. It connects Eden and installs the skill. Or download eden-mcp-skill.zip and unzip it into your skills folder.

You only need this if an agent like Claude Code, Codex, or Cursor's agent calls Eden's tools on its own. For normal chatting in Claude or ChatGPT, skip it.

Install it yourself

  1. 01

    Download the zip

    Get eden-mcp-skill.zip. It's also under Advanced → Coding agent skill in Settings → MCP.

    The Advanced row at the bottom of the Eden MCP card, with Copy server URL, Coding agent skill, Skill guide, and Install via CLI
    Coding agent skill downloads the same zip.
  2. 02

    Unzip it into your skills folder

    You get one folder named eden-mcp/. See the table below for where it goes.

  3. 03

    Connect Eden if you haven't

    The skill assumes Eden is connected. See connect your AI app.

AgentWhere the eden-mcp/ folder goes
Claude Code~/.claude/skills/ for every project, or a project's .claude/skills/
CodexYour Codex skills folder. Point the agent at eden-mcp/SKILL.md.
CursorInside your project. Reference SKILL.md from your Cursor rules.

Agents that can't unzip files can read it directly at eden.so/skills/eden-mcp/SKILL.md.

What it teaches the agent

  • Reconnect when sign-in expires. "OAuth authorization required" means reconnect and retry, not a bad request.
  • Schedule posts right. Per-platform media rules, threads, and editing a post in place instead of making a copy.
  • Read Eden's errors. Each failure says whether to fix the input, retry once, or tell you.
  • Pick the right tool. Your saved content versus Eden's social research, your analytics, your Custom AIs, and your store.

If the agent loses its connection mid-run

It usually shows "OAuth authorization required" or "Unauthorized." Sign in to Eden again in your agent (in Claude Code, run /mcp), then have it retry. New tools missing? See get the latest tools.
