Back-Agent MCP Server

IMPORTANT: This is an AI programming assistant tool, NOT a direct shell command executor.

This tool spawns Claude Code (an AI coding agent) as a subprocess to complete development tasks. Claude Code will interpret your natural language request and autonomously decide which actions to take (reading files, editing code, running commands, etc.) to accomplish the goal.

What it does:

• Accepts natural language task descriptions

• Claude Code AI figures out how to complete the task

• Returns the AI's response and actions taken

What it does NOT do:

• NOT a direct shell/bash command executor

• Does NOT return raw stdout/stderr from commands

• For direct command execution, use the Bash tool instead

Example usage:

• "Create a REST API endpoint for user authentication"

• "Debug why the tests are failing"

• "Refactor the user module to use TypeScript"

The returned output is Claude Code's conversational response, not raw command output.

IMPORTANT: This creates a background task for an AI programming assistant, NOT a direct shell command executor.

Spawns Claude Code (an AI coding agent) as a subprocess to complete development tasks in the background. Claude Code will interpret your natural language request and autonomously decide which actions to take.

What it does:

• Creates a non-blocking background task

• Returns task ID immediately for tracking

• Up to 3 tasks run concurrently by default

What it does NOT do:

• NOT a direct shell/bash command executor

• Does NOT return raw stdout/stddr from commands

Returns a task ID. Use get-task-status to check progress and get-task-result to retrieve the output.

Get the current status of a task. Returns status, timestamps, and basic info.

Get the full result of a task including stdout/stderr output. Only available for completed tasks.

Cancel a pending or running task.

List all tasks, optionally filtered by status.

Delete a task from the task list. Use this to clean up old completed tasks.

Get statistics about all tasks.
