Connect Agents · MCP + agent skills

Connect your AI client.

Give your agent the tools to manage your games, and the instructions to package and publish them. Choose your client for its exact configuration.

MCP server

The connection that reads and changes your game entries.

MCP server URL

https://aigamelabs.net/mcp

Streamable HTTP · OAuth sign-in and consent · no shared API key

Publishing skill

The workflow for metadata, artwork, WebGL packaging, Unity exports and Unreal limitations.

Client configuration

Amp

Native MCP + OAuthNative agent skill

Sourcegraph's CLI-first coding agent: add remote MCP servers directly by URL with automatic browser OAuth, plus native Agent Skills loaded from .agents/skills.

Step 1 · Tools

Connect the MCP server

  1. Add the server by URL — Amp auto-detects the transport (Streamable HTTP is the default for URL entries): amp mcp add aigamelabs https://aigamelabs.net/mcp
  2. Run amp and ask for an aigamelabs tool; many remote servers "handle authentication automatically via OAuth" — Amp opens the browser for the Google login + consent flow (loopback callback, automatic client registration).
  3. Global entries in ~/.config/amp/settings.json need no approval; if you put the server in workspace .amp/settings.json, approve it with amp mcp approve aigamelabs.
  4. Check connectivity and auth state with amp mcp doctor.
  5. No Authorization header or mcp-remote shim is required — current Amp docs have no stdio bridge guidance for remote servers.

Choose the example for your platform and merge the aigamelabs entry into the existing configuration. Keep unrelated servers and settings.

Add via CLI

amp mcp add aigamelabs https://aigamelabs.net/mcp

Merge fragment — settings.json(c)

~/.config/amp/settings.json
{
  // Windows: %USERPROFILE%\.config\amp\settings.json
  "amp.mcpServers": {
    "aigamelabs": {
      "url": "https://aigamelabs.net/mcp"
    }
  }
}

Before you connect
  • Amp is CLI-first: the VS Code/Cursor extensions were retired in March 2026; connect editors by running amp and using the ide connect command instead.
  • Amp docs describe OAuth as automatic browser login with automatic client registration but never name DCR/PKCE explicitly; a pre-registered amp mcp oauth login path exists for servers without automatic setup.
  • Browser-based OAuth flows are unavailable in Amp orbs (cloud runs) — use the local CLI for the consent flow.

Step 2 · Workflow

Add the publishing skill

  1. Download the skill into a documented discovery directory: https://aigamelabs.net/mcp/skills/SKILL.md → .agents/skills/aigamelabs-game-publishing/SKILL.md (project; Amp searches parent directories and up to five levels deep).
  2. Skills are lazy-loaded: the model sees each skill's name + description and pulls in the full SKILL.md only when relevant — no slash command needed.
  3. Verify discovery with amp skills list.
  4. For machine-wide availability use ~/.config/agents/skills/ or ~/.agents/skills/ (Amp's documented user-level roots).

Run from your project root. This downloads Markdown only, does not execute it, and will not overwrite an existing skill. Review the file before using it.

Download the skill with Bash

skill_dir='.agents/skills/aigamelabs-game-publishing'
mkdir -p "$skill_dir"
if [ -e "$skill_dir/SKILL.md" ]; then
  printf '%s\n' 'SKILL.md already exists. Review or back it up before replacing it.'
else
  curl --fail --show-error --location 'https://aigamelabs.net/mcp/skills/SKILL.md' --output "$skill_dir/SKILL.md"
fi

After setup

Try a read-only first request

First prompt for your agent

Read the aigamelabs-game-publishing skill, then use AIGameLabs list_games to show my game entries. Do not create, publish or remove anything yet.

Once the connection works, the agent can use add_game, update_game and remove_game, plus build, artwork and release tools. Removing a game archives it and revokes delivery; publishing still requires an approved release. Publication is manual by default; explicitly opt in when freezing a release only if you want that exact snapshot to publish automatically on approval.

Your approval remains in control

Sign in on aigamelabs.net and inspect the client's name, callback and requested scopes. Grant games:read for reading and games:write for changes; offline_access permits refresh tokens. Never paste browser cookies, Google credentials or an access token into shared configuration. Creator access, upload limits and human review still apply.

Manage or disconnect an agent in Settings → Connected agents. A recent sign-in is required to disconnect. Review game metadata and ask for confirmation before destructive actions, rights attestations or automatic-publication opt-ins.

Connection help

The URL shows “missing authorization header”

That is the expected OAuth challenge, not a page to sign in on. Add the URL in your client's MCP settings, then use its Connect or Authenticate action to open the consent flow.

The sign-in link expired or the callback was rejected

Reconnect from the MCP client to request a fresh authorization link. Do not bookmark a signed consent URL. Older clients that omit the native application type are inferred from loopback or private-use callbacks; explicitly configured web clients must use HTTPS callbacks. Unsafe callbacks remain rejected.

The client has HTTP support but cannot authenticate

HTTP transport alone is insufficient: this server requires OAuth. Follow the selected guide's native OAuth or documented bridge instructions. A stdio bridge runs locally and stores its own authorization state; do not share that cache or use one person's login for a multi-user server. This server uses dynamic client registration, not URL-based client metadata discovery.

The skill is not listed

Keep the exact filename SKILL.md inside the directory shown for your client, preserve its frontmatter, then reload or start a new session as that client's instructions require. A reference-only app will not show it as an installed native skill.

A game operation is denied after connection

OAuth grants access only to your own workspaces. Creator enrollment, quotas and human review gates remain in force. Read-only consent cannot authorize writes. Ask for the required scope rather than copying a token into configuration or trying to bypass review.
