Rails Agent Skills

Rails-specific implementation and review procedures for the ruby-rails project profile. The shared work-router selects one entry; invoke a specialist directly when the task is clear.

Entries

  • rails-feature: ordinary behavior changes.
  • rails-review: diff reviews, with optional security, architecture, or migration checks.
  • rails-maintenance: setup, conventions, refactoring, and engine maintenance.

Specialist cards remain available for Rails APIs, authorization, background jobs, GraphQL, Hotwire, migrations, performance, security, engines, setup, and tests. Ruby language patterns live in ruby-core-skills.

Installation

Source-derived launch command. Check the maintainer’s required arguments and credentials before running:

bash
docker run -i --rm docker.io/igmarin/rails-agent-skills-mcp:5.1.7

Set up in your AI client

Merge this template into ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json. Keep existing servers. Add any arguments, credentials, and permissions required by the maintainer; this template has not been install-tested.

  "mcpServers": {
    "io-github-igmarin-rails-agent-skills-mcp": {
      "command": "docker",
      "args": [

        "--rm",
        "docker.io/igmarin/rails-agent-skills-mcp:5.1.7"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Restart Claude Desktop completely for changes to take effect. Confirm the server appears connected in the client’s tool list, then try a read-only example from its documentation.
