Simple MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that invokes a single Watson Orchestrate agent remotely. The agent is defined once via environment variables or MCP config.

Use this when you want a lightweight MCP that only chats with one agent—no tool management, no agent listing, no flows. Just `invoke_agent(message)` and `get_agent()`.

Full documentation: DOCUMENTATION.md (includes screenshots for VS Code and Langflow).

Publishing: PUBLISHING.md – npm and MCP Registry procedure.

Tools

ToolDescription
invoke_agentSend a message to the configured Watson Orchestrate agent. The agent responds using its tools and LLM.
get_agentGet details of the configured agent (name, description, tools, instructions).

Configuration

Set these in `.env` or your MCP client config (e.g. Cursor `mcp.json`):

env
WO_API_KEY=your-ibm-cloud-api-key
WO_INSTANCE_URL=https://your-instance-id.orchestrate.ibm.com
WO_AGENT_ID=your-agent-id
# Or WO_AGENT_IDs=id1,id2  (first is used)

Quick Start

bash
npm install
npm run build
cp .env.example .env
# Edit .env with your credentials and agent ID
WO_API_KEY=... WO_INSTANCE_URL=... WO_AGENT_ID=... node dist/index.js

Verify

bash
# Default question ("Hello, who are you?")
WO_API_KEY=... WO_INSTANCE_URL=... WO_AGENT_IDs=... npm run test:verify

# Custom question
npm run test:verify -- -ask "What is the weather in Amsterdam?"

Runs `get_agent` and `invoke_agent` to confirm connectivity.

Test in VS Code

1. Open the `wxo-agent-mcp` folder in VS Code.

2. Run `npm run build`.

3. `.vscode/mcp.json` registers the MCP server as wxo-agent and loads `.env`.

4. Open Copilot Chat (Ctrl+Shift+I) and ask: _Use invoke_agent to ask: What is the weather in Amsterdam?_

For "what can you do", use _Use invoke_agent to ask: What can you do?_ to avoid Copilot calling `get_agent` first.

5. Or run `npm run test:verify` from the terminal (Ctrl+`).

See DOCUMENTATION.md for more prompts and setup.

Question examples: Full list →

invoke_agentget_agent
What is the weather in Amsterdam?Use get_agent to show agent details
Tell me a dad jokeWhat tools does my agent have?
What time is it in Tokyo?
What can you help me with?

Langflow: Add an MCP Tools component, choose STDIO, set Command=`node`, Args=`["/path/to/dist/index.js"]`, and env vars. See DOCUMENTATION.md.

MCP Client Configuration

One-click install (Cursor Directory)

**Add to Cursor** — Opens the Cursor Directory page. After adding, set `WO_API_KEY`, `WO_INSTANCE_URL`, and `WO_AGENT_ID` in Cursor MCP settings.

**For cursor.directory/mcp/new submission:**

Install instructionshttps://github.com/markusvankempen/wxo-agent-mcp#mcp-client-configuration

Cursor (`.cursor/mcp.json`)

json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "wxo-agent": {
            "command": "npx",
            "args": ["-y", "wxo-agent-mcp"],
            "env": {
                "WO_API_KEY": "your-api-key",
                "WO_INSTANCE_URL": "https://xxx.orchestrate.ibm.com",
                "WO_AGENT_ID": "your-agent-id"
            }
        }
    }
}

VS Code Copilot (`.vscode/mcp.json`)

The server is named wxo-agent. Use `envFile` to load `.env`:

json
{
    "servers": {
        "wxo-agent": {
            "type": "stdio",
            "command": "node",
            "args": ["${workspaceFolder}/dist/index.js"],
            "envFile": "${workspaceFolder}/.env"
        }
    }
}

For npx (after publishing), use `"command": "npx"`, `"args": ["-y", "wxo-agent-mcp"]`, and add `env` with your credentials.

Antigravity

Same config as Cursor. Copy `examples/antigravity-mcp.json` or add to your MCP config:

json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "wxo-agent": {
            "command": "npx",
            "args": ["-y", "wxo-agent-mcp"],
            "env": {
                "WO_API_KEY": "your-api-key",
                "WO_INSTANCE_URL": "https://xxx.orchestrate.ibm.com",
                "WO_AGENT_ID": "your-agent-id"
            }
        }
    }
}
