Click on "Install Server".
Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state.
In the chat, type
@followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@Signal MCPCreate a work item to migrate the user data to the new schema"
That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed.
Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.
Signal MCP
Signal is a lightweight MCP work queue for AI agents.
It provides a small set of tools for creating, claiming, starting, handing off, failing, completing, and reviewing durable work items through MCP.
Signal is intentionally simple.
v0.1.0
The first release provides a basic agent work lifecycle:
created
↓
claimed
↓
in_progress
↓
completedWith additional paths for:
handoff
failedRelated MCP server: bot-relay-mcp

Docker Compose
Connect
Signal exposes an MCP endpoint at:
Run
cp .env.example .env
docker compose up -dBy default, Signal is exposed at:
http://localhost:3002/mcpThe container listens internally on port 3000.
Persistence
Signal stores work state in SQLite.
The Docker Compose setup mounts the database outside the container so work survives container replacement and restarts.
Status
v0.1.0 is intentionally small.
The goal of this release is to establish a simple, durable MCP work queue before adding more advanced features such as milestones, dependencies, events, artifacts, reviews, or workflow policies.
Those features will be shaped by actual agent usage rather than added in advance.
