Review first — review before installing
Open the source and read safety notes before installing.
Safety notes
- This skill plans MCP registry publishing; it must not execute destructive changes without explicit approval.
- Browser, computer-use, and remote surfaces can access sensitive UI state; scope tests carefully.
- MCP and SDK integrations may exfiltrate data if tool scopes are too broad.
- The public `anthropics/claude-code` repository ships documentation links to code.claude.com for settings, security, and integration surfaces.
- Scheduled or autonomous workflows compound risk; cap blast radius in staging first.
Privacy notes
- Reviews may expose integration tokens, customer metadata, and internal URLs related to MCP registry publishing.
- Telemetry and analytics configs can include account emails; redact before sharing externally.
- Keep troubleshooting logs in internal channels unless explicitly sanitized.
- Third-party vendors remain outside Anthropic retention policies; document separately.
Prerequisites
- Access to Claude Code or Agent SDK environment where MCP registry publishing will run.
- Ability to read project, user, and managed settings relevant to the workflow.
- Staging repository or sandbox account for safe validation.
- Platform or security stakeholder available for policy-bound rollouts.

Knowledge Freshness
This capability pack is grounded in Claude Code mcp, MCP registry docs, and managed-mcp documentation verified on 2026-06-14. Product behavior and integration defaults can change with releases; prefer live official docs and changelog notes over cached assumptions.

Source Verification Notes
Verified against official Claude Code documentation, README, CHANGELOG, and plugins README on 2026-06-14:
- Official docs for MCP registry publishing are published on code.claude.com with settings and security cross-links.
- README describes Claude Code as an agentic coding tool in your terminal that understands your codebase and handles git workflows alongside routine development tasks.
- Plugins README documents official Claude Code plugins bundling skills, hooks, and MCP servers for repeatable team workflows.
- Agent Skills documentation describes progressive disclosure so capability packs can load instructions without bloating every session context window.
- CHANGELOG 2.1.176 fixed Linux sandbox startup when
.claude/settings.jsonis a symlink with an absolute target and corrected /cd and worktree moves reporting stale git branches.
Scope Note
This is not vendor professional services. Use it as a reusable review workflow for MCP registry publishing on Claude Code and related Agent SDK surfaces.
Core Workflow
- Confirm prerequisites, account plan, and Claude Code or SDK version for MCP registry publishing.
- Inventory configuration files, integrations, and managed policy layers.
- Map data flows, credentials, and logging for the workflow.
- Compare official defaults with team overrides and document drift.
- Run a staged validation with realistic tasks and capture failures.
- Review security, privacy, and compliance constraints with stakeholders.
- Define production rules and escalation paths for autonomous runs.
- Produce review matrix outcomes with explicit owners and dates.
- Deliver privacy-safe summary suitable for platform or security review.
Capability Scope
- MCP registry publishing scope definition.
- Configuration and policy review.
- Security and privacy boundary checks.
- Staging validation checklist.
- Rollout and rollback planning.
- Privacy-safe stakeholder summary.
Compatibility
Native
- Claude Code / Claude: use as an Agent Skill when preparing MCP registry publishing workflows, rollout checklists, or team enablement docs.
Manual Adaptation
- Codex, Cursor, Windsurf, and Generic AGENTS workflows: use the workflow as a deterministic checklist for MCP registry publishing evaluations on Claude Code projects.
Required Inputs
- Target repository or organization context and Claude Code version or channel.
- Current configuration files, integration endpoints, and policy constraints.
- Stakeholders for security, platform, or compliance review when applicable.
- Known dependencies, secrets handling rules, and rollback expectations.
Production Rules
- Do not paste secrets, tokens, or customer PII into public skill outputs.
- Treat managed and enterprise policy as authoritative over local overrides.
- Require human approval before destructive automation in production repos.
- Keep third-party MCP and observability stacks in separate risk reviews.
- Redact internal hostnames, account IDs, and contract details in public summaries.
- Prefer official documentation and changelog notes over forum assumptions.
- Document rollback steps before enabling autonomous or scheduled workflows.
Review Matrix
| Topic | Signal | Action |
|---|---|---|
| Defaults vs overrides | Config drift | Align to managed policy |
| Secrets handling | Env and tokens | Use least-privilege scopes |
| Autonomous runs | Hooks and agents | Add approval gates |
| Logging | Telemetry volume | Sample and redact fields |
| Integrations | Third-party MCP | Vendor-specific review |
| Rollout | Staging proof | Gate production enablement |
Output Contract
- Scope and configuration summary.
- Findings with severity and owners.
- Review matrix with actions.
- Verification and rollback plan.
- Stakeholder-ready privacy-safe summary.
- Follow-up tasks for integrations and policy.
Troubleshooting
Issue: Official docs disagree with local behavior Fix: Check Claude Code version and changelog; reproduce on a clean staging project.
Issue: Managed policy blocks intended workflow Fix: Escalate policy change or redesign workflow to approved surfaces.
Issue: Integration auth fails intermittently Fix: Refresh OAuth tokens, clock skew, and redirect URLs per MCP or SDK docs.
Issue: Autonomous run caused unexpected edits Fix: Narrow tool allowlists, add hooks, and require human approval for writes.
Duplicate Check
Checked content/skills, content/guides, generated catalog text, and open pull
requests for MCP registry publishing, MCP registry publishing, and Claude Code capability pack workflows. Official docs describe the feature directly, but
no skills entry provides a reusable capability pack with review matrix and output
contract for this workflow.

OAuth tokens issued to an MCP server may grant persistent access to third-party accounts until revoked in the vendor admin console. Tools that read, write, delete, or execute on external systems can cause irreversible production changes when invoked by the model. SSE and streamable HTTP transports must use TLS; do not approve cleartext remote endpoints on untrusted networks.
