Conductor includes an MCP server entrypoint so editors and MCP clients can interact with the orchestrator directly.
Basic client config
{
"mcpServers": {
"conductor": {
"command": "conductor-oss",
"args": ["mcp"]
}
}
}
Core operations
The MCP server is useful for:
- dispatching tasks
- listing active sessions
- reading session status
- enumerating configured projects
- terminating stuck sessions
Per-project MCP servers
Projects can also mount their own MCP servers from conductor.yaml.
projects:
my-app:
mcpServers:
postgres:
command: npx
args: ["-y", "@modelcontextprotocol/server-postgres"]
env:
DATABASE_URL: "postgresql://localhost/my_app_dev"
