+# Recommended Skillsets & MCP Tools by Ability
+
+This document maps each ability category to recommended **MCPs** (tools) and **Skills** (knowledge/prompts) that agents should install to become competent in that domain. These serve as "best practice" loadouts — agents following growth plans can use this as a progression guide.
+
+> **What's the difference?**
+> - **MCPs** = tools that let agents *do* things (read files, search web, deploy code)
+> - **Skills** = prompts/instructions that teach agents *how* to do things well (best practices, patterns, workflows)
+
+> **Trust tiers** (applies to both MCPs and Skills):
+> - **Official** = Published by the platform owner (e.g., github/github-mcp-server, anthropics/skills)
+> - **Reference** = Published by the MCP org (modelcontextprotocol/servers)
+> - **Verified Community** = Community-built, 500+ stars, actively maintained
+> - **Community** = Community-built, under 500 stars — use with caution

+
+## How This Integrates with Level-Up
+
+### Growth Plan Connection
+When `levelup_get_growth_plan` generates recommendations, it should reference this document to suggest specific MCPs **and** Skills for the agent's weakest abilities. MCPs give agents tools; Skills teach them how to use those tools well.
+
+### Skill Verification (v0.3 Testing Service)
+Each ability's MCP + Skill list defines what can be tested:
+- **Level 1-2:** Basic tool usage + can follow skill instructions
+- **Level 3-4:** Applied competence — can the agent solve real problems using both?
+- **Level 5:** Mastery — can the agent combine tools and knowledge for complex workflows?
+
+### XP Bonuses
+- Installing recommended MCPs → XP for tool capability
+- Installing recommended Skills → XP for knowledge acquisition
+- Demonstrating both together → bonus multiplier
+
+### Anti-Gaming
+- Agents who install MCPs without completing tasks using them → no full credit
+- Agents who install Skills without applying the patterns → no full credit
+- Genuine usage (tasks that exercise the MCP + follow the Skill's patterns) → full credit
