Spaceship AI MCP Server

MCP server for Spaceship AI — build, run, and manage AI agents directly from Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, and Windsurf.

Quick start

Don't want to manually configure your MCP server?

Run spaceshipai@latest init to set everything up automatically with one command:

npx spaceshipai@latest init

This works with Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, and Windsurf. It will authenticate via your browser, create a Spaceship API key for you, and configure your editor automatically.

Available Tools

16 tools
create_agentA

Create a new agent.

Pass description to let the server auto-generate a detailed system prompt (scaffold_applied: true in the response). Pass prompt to set the system prompt directly. At least one of description or prompt is recommended.

Args: name: Display name for the agent. project_id: UUID of the project this agent belongs to (from list_projects). description: Natural-language description — triggers server-side prompt scaffolding. prompt: Raw system prompt to use as-is (skips scaffolding). framework: Execution framework. Defaults to langchain. tools: List of tool UUIDs to attach (from list_tools).

Inputs: name (required), project_id (required), description, prompt, +2 more.

delete_agentA

PERMANENTLY delete an agent and all its logs, memories, and threads.

This action is irreversible. Double-check the agent_id before calling.

Args: agent_id: The agent's UUID.

Inputs: agent_id (required).

get_agentA

Get full details of a single agent including its tools and system prompt.

Args: agent_id: The agent's UUID (from list_agents or create_agent).

Inputs: agent_id (required).

get_orchestrationA

Get full details of a single orchestration including its members and tools.

Args: orchestration_id: The orchestration's UUID (from list_orchestrations).

Inputs: orchestration_id (required).

get_run_logsA

Fetch the full event log for a completed run in chronological order.

Returns every event (start, tool_call, memory_access, completion, error, …) so you can see exactly what the agent did and what it returned.

Args: agent_id: The agent's UUID. execution_id: The execution UUID returned by run_agent.

Inputs: agent_id (required), execution_id (required). Returns: result

get_run_statusA

Poll the status of a specific run.

Status values: queued → running → completed | error | cancelled | paused (waiting for approval).

Poll every 3-5 seconds. Most agents complete within 30-60 seconds.

Args: agent_id: The agent's UUID. execution_id: The execution UUID returned by run_agent.

Inputs: agent_id (required), execution_id (required).

list_agentsA

List agents in the organization, optionally filtered by project.

Pass project_id (UUID from list_projects) to scope the results to a single project. Each agent record includes its tools and configuration.

Inputs: project_id, limit. Returns: result

list_executionsA

List recent runs for an agent with their status and duration.

Useful for reviewing run history or checking whether a previous run succeeded before starting a new one.

Args: agent_id: The agent's UUID. limit: Number of runs to return (default 10, max 50).

Inputs: agent_id (required), limit. Returns: result

list_orchestrationsA

List orchestrations in the organization, optionally filtered by project.

Pass project_id (UUID from list_projects) to scope results to a single project. Each orchestration includes its members and their attached tools.

Inputs: project_id, limit. Returns: result

list_projectsB

List all projects in the authenticated organization.

Use this to discover which projects exist before listing or creating agents. Returns each project's id, name, and slug.

Inputs: limit. Returns: result

list_toolsA

List all tools available to attach to agents.

Returns both built-in tools (shared across all orgs) and custom tools belonging to your organization. Use the uuid field when creating or updating agents with the tools parameter.

Inputs: no named parameters. Returns: result

run_agentA

Start an asynchronous agent run and return immediately.

Returns an execution_id — use get_run_status to poll for completion or get_run_logs to fetch the full output once done.

Args: agent_id: The agent's UUID. prompt: The user message / task for the agent to execute. thread_id: Conversation thread UUID for memory continuity across runs. params: Optional extra parameters passed to the agent.

Inputs: agent_id (required), prompt (required), thread_id, params.

run_orchestrationA

Start an asynchronous orchestration run and return immediately.

Returns an execution_id — use test_orchestration to block until completion or poll /executions for status updates.

Args: orchestration_id: The orchestration's UUID. input_data: Input data passed to the orchestration (e.g. {"query": "…"}). params: Optional extra execution parameters.

Inputs: orchestration_id (required), input_data, params.

test_agentA

Quick synchronous test of an agent with a 90-second timeout.

Starts a run and polls every 2 seconds until it completes (or times out). Reports progress via MCP notifications while waiting. Returns the final status and execution_id. Use get_run_logs afterwards to see the output.

For production usage, prefer run_agent + get_run_status (non-blocking).

Args: agent_id: The agent's UUID. prompt: The test prompt to send.

Inputs: ctx (required), agent_id (required), prompt (required).

test_orchestrationA

Quick synchronous test of an orchestration with a 90-second timeout.

Starts a run and polls every 2 seconds until it completes (or times out). Reports progress via MCP notifications while waiting. Returns the final status and execution_id.

Args: orchestration_id: The orchestration's UUID. input_data: Optional input data for the orchestration run.

Inputs: ctx (required), orchestration_id (required), input_data.

update_agentA

Update an agent's name, prompt, or tools.

Providing description re-runs server-side prompt scaffolding and overwrites the current system prompt. Providing prompt sets it directly. Providing tools replaces the full tool list.

Args: agent_id: The agent's UUID. name: New display name. description: New description — triggers re-scaffolding. prompt: New raw system prompt. tools: Replacement list of tool UUIDs.

Inputs: agent_id (required), name, description, prompt, +1 more.

    TDQS

    A4.2/5.0

    Scored across 16 tools

    Disambiguation5/5

    All tools have clearly distinct purposes: create vs delete vs get vs list for agents, orchestrations, etc. Even similar tools like get_run_logs and get_run_status target different aspects of runs (logs vs status). test_agent and run_agent differ in synchronous vs asynchronous execution. No ambiguity.

    Naming Consistency5/5

    All tool names consistently follow the verb_noun pattern with underscores (e.g., create_agent, get_run_status, list_projects). No mixing of camelCase or other styles. Very predictable.

    Tool Count5/5

    16 tools is appropriate for a platform managing agents and orchestrations. It covers essential operations without being overwhelming. Each tool earns its place.

    Completeness4/5

    The tool set covers agent lifecycle (CRUD), run management (run, test, status, logs), orchestration operations (list, get, run, test), and listing of projects/tools. Missing delete/update for orchestrations and projects, but those may be out of scope. Minor gaps, but core workflows are complete.
