AgentPlanner MCP Server

MCP server for AgentPlanner — AI agent orchestration with planning, dependencies, knowledge graphs, and human oversight. Works with Claude Desktop, Claude Code, ChatGPT, Cursor, Windsurf, Cline, and any MCP-compatible client.

Prerequisites

• An AgentPlanner account at agentplanner.io

• An API token (Settings > API Tokens in the AgentPlanner UI)

Setup

Claude Desktop

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "agent-planner": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "agent-planner-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "USER_API_TOKEN": "your-token",
        "API_URL": "https://agentplanner.io/api"
      }
    }
  }
}

Config location: ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) | %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows)

Claude Code

claude mcp add agent-planner -- npx -y agent-planner-mcp

Then set the env vars USER_API_TOKEN and API_URL=https://agentplanner.io/api.

ChatGPT

1. Settings > Apps > Advanced > Developer mode

2. Add MCP Server > URL: https://agentplanner.io/mcp

3. Auth type: API Key > enter your token from agentplanner.io Settings

Cursor

Add to .cursor/mcp.json in your project root:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "agent-planner": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "agent-planner-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "USER_API_TOKEN": "your-token",
        "API_URL": "https://agentplanner.io/api"
      }
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Add to ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "agent-planner": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "agent-planner-mcp"],
      "env": {
        "USER_API_TOKEN": "your-token",
        "API_URL": "https://agentplanner.io/api"
      }
    }
  }
}

Cline (VS Code)

Add the same JSON config to your Cline MCP settings in VS Code.
