Get the starter skill

The detailed planning workflows focus on Florida. California surf, lake, river and coverage tools are available through the same connection, with coverage limits kept explicit. A listed place does not guarantee a forecast or a validated activity rating.

Bundle setup & compatibility
02

A single starter skill

Use Gillby Water when you want one general planning workflow. Its single-file setup is below; it does not install the nine-skill bundle or the specialist agents.

Starter skill setup ↓

Published instruction files are open source under their repository licenses. Gillby’s hosted service, underlying provider data and proprietary scoring are separate. Installing instructions does not grant account access.

ONE FILE. TWO PARTS TO SETUP.

Add the skill. Connect the data.

01

Install the instructions.

Use your client’s skill importer with the GitHub skill folder, or install the single SKILL.md file in your local skills directory. These commands install only Gillby Water.

Claude Code

mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills/gillby-water
curl --fail --location 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OneWave-AI/claude-skills/main/gillby-water/SKILL.md' \
  --output ~/.claude/skills/gillby-water/SKILL.md

mkdir -p ~/.codex/skills/gillby-water
curl --fail --location 'https://raw.githubusercontent.com/OneWave-AI/claude-skills/main/gillby-water/SKILL.md' \
  --output ~/.codex/skills/gillby-water/SKILL.md

Open a new session or reload skills as your client requires. In Codex, you can explicitly ask to use $gillby-water; other clients use their own invocation UI.

Give it a source of current data.

Add Gillby as a remote MCP server in a compatible client:

https://www.gillby.com/mcp

Transport: Streamable HTTP. Public marine tools require no API key or sign-in. Personal boats, places and trips use Gillby OAuth with the permissions you choose.

Follow the connection guide

For an HTTP-based workflow, use the developer guide and current schemas. The skill handles a missing connection explicitly instead of inventing readings.

Available now as an open-source skill.

Custom MCP connections work on compatible accounts. Marketplace plugin listings remain coming soon and subject to each platform’s approval.

One connection. Current references.
