### Description (declared)

# agenthive-mcp

![agenthive-mcp hero](docs/hero.svg)

[![CI](https://github.com/polarpoint-io/agenthive-mcp/actions/workflows/ci.yml/badge.svg)](https://github.com/polarpoint-io/agenthive-mcp/actions/workflows/ci.yml)

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that exposes [AgentHive](https://github.com/polarpoint-io/agenthive)'s shared, reviewed team memory to LLM clients (Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, etc.) - `retrieve_context`, `log_session`, `create_agent`, `list_agents`, `create_task`, and `list_tasks` as native tools, instead of a `CLAUDE.md` / `.cursor/rules` instruction block that calls AgentHive's HTTP API by hand.

## Quick start

You need an AgentHive team and a personal token first - see [AgentHive's onboarding guide](https://github.com/polarpoint-io/agenthive/blob/main/ONBOARDING.md) if you don't have one yet.

### 1. pip (no Docker)

```bash
pip install agenthive-mcp
export AGENTHIVE_URL=https://your-agenthive-host
export AGENTHIVE_TOKEN=your_personal_token
export AGENTHIVE_TEAM_ID=your_team_id

agenthive-mcp                                 # stdio
TRANSPORT=http HTTP_PORT=8000 agenthive-mcp   # HTTP/SSE
```

### 2. Docker (stdio — launched by your MCP client)

```bash
docker pull ghcr.io/polarp…
