Glama / local scanner bridge
This repository includes a minimal Dockerfile for MCP registries that require a runnable container. It starts mcp-remote and bridges local MCP stdio introspection to the hosted SkinKnowledgeBase endpoint:
docker build -t skb-mcp .
docker run --rm -i skb-mcp
The source of truth remains the hosted read-only MCP endpoint: https://mcp.skinknowledgebase.com/mcp.
