MCP Jina AI Installer

This skill installs the Jina AI MCP server into the current project.

Installation Procedure

When the user asks to install Jina MCP:

  1. Check for existing .mcp.json in the project root

    "args": ["/c", "npx", "-y", "@smithery/cli@latest", "run", "jina-ai-mcp-server", "--key", "${JINA_API_KEY}"],
    "env": {
      "JINA_API_KEY": "${JINA_API_KEY}"
    }
  }
}
