Skill · Original · Enterprise architecture · updated 2026-10-29. Part of the [AI Library](https://mikereams.com/ai).

What you get: The export file shaped for the target tool, the import steps, and the catalog version recorded for the next refresh.

- Written for the Blueprint Catalog, my free capability catalog; every path, tool and id it names is checked against each catalog build.
- Rows come parents first, and a refresh reads the change log so merged records are retired instead of duplicated.

On the Blueprint Catalog (CC BY 4.0): [SKILL.md](https://catalog.mikereams.com/skills/export-to-tool/SKILL.md). Needs: The catalog's read-only MCP server (catalog.mikereams.com/mcp) or its HTTPS API. No key, no install.

Install with the skills CLI, from https://github.com/solventarchitect/skills:

```
npx skills add solventarchitect/skills --skill export-to-tool
```
