Gate One-Click Installer (Codex: MCP + Skills)

Resources

npx -y gate-mcp

Behavior Rules

1. Default: When the user does not specify which MCPs to install, install all MCPs (main, dex, info, news) + all gate-skills.
2. Selectable MCPs: Users can choose to install only specific MCPs (e.g. main only, dex only, etc.); follow the user's selection.
3. Skills: Unless

   --no-skills

   is passed, always install all skills from the gate-skills repository's skills/ directory.

Installation Steps

1. Confirm User Selection (MCPs)

• If the user does not specify which MCPs -> install all: main, dex, info, news.
• If the user specifies "only install xxx" -> install only the specified MCPs.

2. Write Codex MCP Config

• User-level config:

  ~/.codex/config.toml

  (or

  $CODEX_HOME/config.toml

  ). Creates the file and writes

  [mcp_servers]

  with corresponding tables if it does not exist.
• If it already exists, merge: only append Gate MCP sections that don't already exist; do not overwrite existing config.
• Config details:
  • Gate (main): stdio,

    command = "npx"

    ,

    args = ["-y", "gate-mcp"]

  • gate-dex: streamable HTTP,

    url

    +

    http_headers["x-api-key"]

    fixed as MCP_AK_8W2N7Q +

    http_headers["Authorization"]

    =

    Bearer ${GATE_MCP_TOKEN}

  • gate-info / gate-news: streamable HTTP,

    url

3. Install gate-skills (all)

• Pull all subdirectories under skills/ from https://github.com/gate/gate-skills and copy them to

  $CODEX_HOME/skills/

  (default

  ~/.codex/skills/

  ).
• Add

  --no-skills

  when using the script to install MCP only without skills.

4. Post-Installation Prompt

• Inform the user of the installed MCP list and "all gate-skills have been installed" (unless --no-skills was used).
• Prompt to restart Codex to load MCP servers and skills.
• Getting API Key: If the user uses Gate (main) for spot/futures trading, prompt them to visit https://www.gate.com/myaccount/profile/api-key/manage to create an API Key and set

  GATE_API_KEY

  and

  GATE_API_SECRET

  .
• Gate-Dex Authorization: If Gate-Dex was installed and a query returns an authorization required message, prompt the user to first open https://web3.gate.com/ to create or bind a wallet, then the assistant will return a clickable Google authorization link for the user to complete OAuth.

Script

• Usage:
  

  ./scripts/install.sh [--mcp main|dex|info|news] ... [--no-skills]

  
  Installs all MCPs when no

  --mcp

  is passed; pass multiple

  --mcp

  to install only specified ones;

  --no-skills

  installs MCP only.
• The DEX x-api-key is fixed as

  MCP_AK_8W2N7Q

  and written to config.toml.
