About source-management
The Source Management skill is designed to streamline enterprise search by managing connected MCP (Modular Connectors Platform) sources. It addresses the challenge of accessing diverse organizational data spread across multiple systems, ensuring users can efficiently locate relevant information without manually checking each source. By automating source detection and connection guidance, the skill reduces the complexity involved in enterprise-wide information retrieval, helping teams maintain productivity and data accessibility.
Key capabilities include detecting available MCP sources and informing users which are connected, guiding users through the process of adding new sources, and prioritizing query results based on the type of information sought. It supports sources such as chat platforms, email, cloud storage, project trackers, CRM systems, and knowledge bases. The skill also incorporates awareness of source-specific rate limits, enabling queries to be managed gracefully and avoiding disruptions in search operations. It provides detailed source priority ordering, ensuring that searches for decisions, status updates, documents, personnel, or policy information return the most relevant results first.
Typical use cases include enterprise search optimization for teams needing quick access to communications, documents, project updates, and organizational knowledge. Target users are knowledge workers, project managers, and IT administrators who require comprehensive visibility across connected MCP sources. By centralizing source management and prioritization, this skill ensures more accurate and efficient retrieval of information, improving decision-making and operational efficiency.
FAQ
How do I check which MCP sources are currently connected?
You can determine connected sources by reviewing available tools in the MCP platform. Each connected source has a tool prefix indicating it is searchable.
What should I do if a source I need is not connected?
Open your MCP settings, add the configuration for the desired tool, authenticate as prompted, and it will be automatically included in future searches.
Can the skill prioritize results based on the type of query?
Yes, the skill uses predefined source priority ordering for different query types, such as decision queries, status queries, document queries, people queries, and factual or policy queries.
Does the skill handle rate limiting for sources?
Yes, it detects rate limit responses (e.g., HTTP 429 or messages mentioning 'rate limit') and manages queries gracefully to prevent disruptions.
Is this skill user-invocable directly?
No, the skill is not directly invocable by users. It operates automatically to manage sources and prioritize search results.
