All-Agents-MCP

⚠️ Archived — This project is no longer actively maintained.

As the AI agent CLI ecosystem has evolved, direct CLI invocation + Skills-based integration has become the more practical and mainstream approach over wrapping agent CLIs behind an MCP server.

The core functionality of this project has been merged into hardened-claude-code as Skills. The same multi-agent orchestration can now be achieved more concisely and maintainably through CLAUDE.md configuration and Skills.

Migration guide:

• Tools like ask_agent, ask_all, delegate_task → replaced by Skills in hardened-claude-code (/with, /web-fetch, etc.)
• No MCP server setup required — Skills invoke CLIs directly
• Environment variable model config → consolidated into declarative CLAUDE.md settings

Original README below for reference.

---

An MCP server that orchestrates multiple AI CLI agents — Claude Code, Codex, Gemini CLI, and Copilot CLI — through a unified interface. Delegate tasks, run cross-agent comparisons, and leverage each agent's strengths from any MCP-compatible host.

Safe by Design — No OAuth Token Hijacking

Some multi-agent tools work by extracting OAuth tokens from other AI services and calling their APIs directly. This approach (used by projects like OpenCode) violates the terms of service of those platforms and can result in account suspension or permanent bans.

all-agents-mcp takes a fundamentally different approach. It invokes each agent's official CLI binary (claude, codex, gemini, copilot) as a child process — exactly the same way a human would use them in a terminal. No tokens are extracted, no APIs are called behind the scenes, and no authentication is bypassed.

	all-agents-mcp	OAuth token hijacking
How it works	Calls official CLI commands directly	Extracts tokens from browser/config and calls APIs
Authentication	Uses each CLI's own auth flow	Steals OAuth tokens from other services
ToS compliance	Fully compliant	Violates platform terms of service
Account risk	None	Suspension or permanent ban
Billing	Normal CLI usage billing	Unpredictable — may trigger abuse detection

Each CLI agent manages its own authentication, billing, and rate limits. all-agents-mcp is simply a process orchestrator — it doesn't touch your credentials.

Features

• Single-agent queries — Ask a specific agent with ask_agent
• Multi-agent comparison — Run the same prompt across all agents in parallel with ask_all
• Task delegation — Auto-analyze complexity and route to one or multiple agents
• Cross-model verification — Verify answers by running one agent with different models
• Specialized tools — Code review, debugging, explanation, test generation, refactoring
• Recursive call prevention — Automatically excludes the calling agent to avoid infinite loops
• Session history — All interactions are recorded and queryable via MCP resources
• Environment-based model config — Override models at runtime via AA_MCP_* environment variables

Prerequisites

• Node.js 22+
• At least one of the following CLI agents installed and authenticated:

Agent	Install	Auth
Claude Code	npm i -g @anthropic-ai/claude-code	claude (follow prompts)
Codex	npm i -g @openai/codex	codex login
Gemini CLI	npm i -g @anthropic-ai/gemini-cli	gemini (follow prompts)
Copilot CLI	npm i -g @githubnext/github-copilot-cli	copilot (follow prompts)

Model Configuration

Models are configured via environment variables with the AA_MCP_ prefix. Set them in your MCP client config to override defaults at runtime:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "all-agents-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "all-agents-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "AA_MCP_CLAUDE_DEFAULT": "claude-sonnet-4.5",
        "AA_MCP_CODEX_ANALYSIS_LEVEL": "medium",
        "AA_MCP_GEMINI_MODELS": "gemini-2.5-pro,gemini-2.5-flash"
      }
    }
  }
}

Available Environment Variables

Variable	Default	Description
AA_MCP_CLAUDE_DEFAULT	claude-opus-4.6	Claude default model
AA_MCP_CLAUDE_MODELS	claude-opus-4.6,claude-sonnet-4.5,claude-haiku-4.5	Available Claude models (comma-separated)
AA_MCP_CODEX_DEFAULT	gpt-5.3-codex-spark	Codex default model
AA_MCP_CODEX_MODELS	gpt-5.3-codex-spark,gpt-5.3-codex,gpt-5.2-codex-max,gpt-5.2-codex	Available Codex models
AA_MCP_CODEX_ANALYSIS_LEVEL	xhigh	Codex reasoning depth (low/medium/high/xhigh)
AA_MCP_GEMINI_DEFAULT	gemini-3-pro-preview	Gemini default model
AA_MCP_GEMINI_MODELS	gemini-3-pro-preview,gemini-3-flash-preview,gemini-2.5-pro,gemini-2.5-flash	Available Gemini models
AA_MCP_COPILOT_DEFAULT	claude-sonnet-4.5	Copilot default model
AA_MCP_COPILOT_MODELS	claude-opus-4.5,claude-sonnet-4.5,claude-haiku-4.5,gpt-5.2-codex,gemini-3-pro-preview,gemini-3-flash-preview	Available Copilot models

Recursive Call Prevention

When all-agents-mcp runs inside an agent (e.g., Claude Code calls all-agents-mcp), it automatically detects the caller and excludes it from the available agent list. This prevents infinite recursive loops.

Detection methods (in priority order):

1. CLI argument: --caller=claude
2. Environment variables: CLAUDECODE, CODEX_SANDBOX_TYPE, GEMINI_CLI, COPILOT_CLI
3. process.env._ fallback

Development Methodology

This project is built following AIDE (Agent-Informed Development Engineering) v1.0 — a software development methodology designed for the agentic era. Key principles applied include context budget constraints, locality of behavior, functional core architecture, test-as-specification, and deterministic guardrails.

Test Status

All agents have been tested and verified.

Agent	Status
Claude Code	Tested
