cueapi-mcp

Name: cueapi-mcp
Author: cueapi

Official Model Context Protocol server for CueAPI — the open-source execution accountability primitive for AI agents.

Give your MCP-enabled assistant (Claude Desktop, Cursor, Zed, or any other MCP host) the ability to schedule agent work, fetch execution history, and close the loop with evidence-backed outcome reports — all from inside a conversation.

Why

CueAPI makes silent agent failure impossible: every scheduled run has to come back with evidence of what actually happened — an external ID, a result URL, or an artifact — before the cycle closes. This MCP server exposes that primitive directly to the agent itself, so the agent can both schedule its own follow-up work and report outcomes with proof.

Install

npm install -g @cueapi/mcp
# or use via npx (no install):
npx -y @cueapi/mcp

Configure (Claude Desktop)

Add this to your Claude Desktop config (~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json on macOS):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "cueapi": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@cueapi/mcp"],
      "env": {
        "CUEAPI_API_KEY": "cue_sk_..."
      }
    }
  }
}

Generate your API key at cueapi.ai. Self-hosting? Set CUEAPI_BASE_URL alongside CUEAPI_API_KEY.

Configure (Cursor / Zed / other hosts)

Any MCP host that supports stdio servers can run this. Point the host at the cueapi-mcp binary and pass CUEAPI_API_KEY in the environment.

Example conversation

You: Schedule a daily 9am job that posts a digest to my webhook.
Assistant (uses cueapi_create_cue): Created cue cue_abc123, first fire tomorrow at 9:00 UTC.
