About this project

SkillSync AI – Basic Description SkillSync AI is an AI-powered peer learning and networking platform built using the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to help students connect, learn, and grow together within their college community. Instead of relying only on online courses or tutorials, SkillSync AI enables students to discover mentors, learning partners, and project teammates based on their skills, interests, and availability. Students can create professional profiles showcasing their department, semester, skills, projects, and learning goals. The AI Assistant analyzes this information to recommend suitable mentors, generate personalized learning roadmaps, suggest portfolio projects, and build balanced hackathon teams. It also helps students discover peers with similar interests, join learning circles, and share achievements through a collaborative campus feed. The platform uses modular MCP tools for profile management, mentor matching, networking, learning guidance, portfolio analysis, and social interactions. During the prototype stage, all application data is stored in structured JSON files, making the system lightweight, scalable, and easy to extend. SkillSync AI aims to transform campus learning by creating a collaborative ecosystem where every student can both teach and learn. By combining artificial intelligence with peer mentorship, it promotes knowledge sharing, teamwork, skill development, and stronger academic communities. Tagline: Discover. Learn. Teach. Grow.

Who built SkillSync?
SkillSync was built by team Teenage Kirks at the SRMIST NitroStack × MCP To The Moon hackathon, in the Education & Research track.
What is an MCP app and how is it built?
An MCP app is an application built on the Model Context Protocol — an open standard that lets AI agents connect to tools, data, and APIs. This project exposes MCP tools and resources that agentic AI systems can call. It was built and deployed on NitroStack, the full-stack platform for shipping MCP apps and servers.
