What is the Agent Skill?

The Agent Skill is an Agent Skill that teaches Claude how to effectively discover and use tools through the Danube MCP Server. It provides:
  • Tool discovery patterns - When to use search_tools vs list_services vs get_service_tools
  • Authentication handling - How to recognize and respond to credential errors
  • Workflow guidance - Multi-step patterns for common tasks
  • Troubleshooting - Error handling and recovery strategies
Agent Skills are folders of instructions that Claude loads dynamically to improve performance on specialized tasks. Learn more about Skills. The same skill file is served at danubeai.com/skill.md for agents that fetch it directly. OpenClaw users install it from ClawHub instead; see OpenClaw.

What’s Included

The Agent Skill package contains:

​
SKILL.md

The main skill file is the same file served at danubeai.com/skill.md. It covers:
  • All 31 MCP tools and their REST equivalents (discovery, execution, result handles, parameter defaults, credentials, skills, workflows, wallet, agents, ratings)
  • Guardrails, including the confirmation handshake for API keys that require consent
  • Reading results: result.data, truncation, credential redaction, dropped parameters
  • readiness and reliability on search results, and describe_tool before a first call
  • Authentication errors (auth_required, store_credential, credential references)

​
rest-api.md

Copy-paste curl recipes for the capabilities above, with a table for reading results and HTTP error codes.

​
troubleshooting.md

A symptom-to-fix table for the failures an agent meets in practice: auth_required, a truncated result, a projection path that matched nothing, a tool past its sunset date, the daily hosted-AI cap, and the fault field that says whose failure it was.

​
Example Usage

Once the skill is installed, Claude will know how to use Danube effectively. Try prompts like:
Prompt: “What services are available on Danube?”Claude will use list_services to show available integrations.
Prompt: “Find a tool to send emails”Claude will use search_tools with semantic search to find relevant tools.
Prompt: “Send an email to john@example.com about our meeting tomorrow”Claude will discover the Gmail tool, check authentication, and execute the request.

​
Skill vs MCP Connection

The Agent Skill enhances Claude’s ability to use Danube but does not replace the MCP connection. You still need to set up the MCP Server to actually execute tools.
