MCP server for on-demand agent template registry — search, browse, and spawn specialized AI agents
MCP server for on-demand agent template registry — search, browse, and spawn specialized AI agents. The agency mcp server wraps that behind the Model Context Protocol, so an assistant can use it through 3 defined tools rather than through you.
Your AI assistant is a generalist. Sometimes you need a specialist -- a game economy designer, a security auditor, a technical writer. This MCP server gives your assistant instant access to 150+ expert agent templates. Describe what you need, it finds the right agent and spawns it.
Everything the assistant can do here goes through one of these:
Tools — The Tools tool exposed by this serverResources — The Resources tool exposed by this serverPrompts — The Prompts tool exposed by this serverYou will need 2 environment variables: AGENCY_AGENTS_PATH, AGENCY_REPO_URL. The server will not start without them, which is usually why the tools fail to appear on a first run. Keep credentials in your client's env block or a secrets manager rather than in a file you might commit.
The server ships on npm as agency-mcp-server, so your MCP client can launch it on demand — there is no separate build step. Add the server block to your client's configuration, restart it, and the tools register themselves.
Among the developer tooling options, the useful question is rarely "what can it do" but "what does it cost you to run" — permissions, credentials, and how much of your context its toolset consumes. Agency's toolset — Tools, Resources, Prompts — is a fair guide to whether it matches your workflow. It is maintained by npupko; worth a glance at recent repository activity before you build anything load-bearing on it.
