Registry nameio.github.readyagentsdev/readyagents

Install

Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Local YAML/JSON agent workflow CLI with approvals, resume, and optional stdio or loopback MCP HTTP.

PopNx MCP’s three pillars

These three are never merged into one score: opinions, measurements and popularity are different things.

What you can do with it

We have not written a plain-language summary for this one yet. Below are the facts we read from the registry.

  • Connection: Runs on your computer
  • Transport: stdio
  • Category: Other

Install

Pick the AI app you use, then copy the settings.

Before you install

  • Basic checks: 1 of 1 passed
  • Runs on your computer with your user’s permissions (files, network, apps).
  • The registry lists no key to fill in.

You need

  • PyPIPython’s uv installed (for the uvx command)

Which app do you use?

Pick your app above. We remember it, so next time the button says “Install in …”.

Open Claude Desktop → Settings → Developer → Edit Config, and paste this into claude_desktop_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "readyagents": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "readyagentsdev",
        "mcp",
        "serve"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add readyagents -- uvx readyagentsdev mcp serve

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .cursor/mcp.json in your project, or ~/.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "readyagents": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "readyagentsdev",
        "mcp",
        "serve"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

Open in VS Code

Or copy the settings yourself

Paste into .vscode/mcp.json in your project

{
  "servers": {
    "readyagents": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "readyagentsdev",
        "mcp",
        "serve"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Your browser asks to open the app, then the app shows the settings and asks you to confirm. Key values are left empty for you to fill in.

This one runs on your computer, and ChatGPT can only connect to servers on the internet. Pick another app.

Your choice stays on this device in a cookie; no account needed.

These settings are generated from the maker’s registry entry. If the README says otherwise, follow the README.

What it can do

Runs on your computer; the tool list appears in your AI app after you install it.

Common questions

Is ReadyAgents safe?

It passed 1 of 1 applicable basic checks. We have not read the code. Before adding a key or token, see what access the server asks for and use a key with only the permissions you need.

What keys or codes does it need?

The registry does not list a required key, though some servers ask you to sign in on first use.

Does it run on my computer or in the cloud?

It runs on your computer. Your AI app starts it when needed, and data does not pass through the maker’s servers (unless it calls an online service itself).

Is it still maintained?

The GitHub repo last changed –, and the latest version (2.0.12) reached the registry 36 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Python (uv) on your computer.

What can I use instead?

ReadyAgents Core

ReadyAgents runs YAML agent workflows locally. Every node is checkpointed, so a run pauses for human approval, resumes from where it stopped, and replays offline as a regression test. Your keys, your machine, no daemon.

Site: readyagents.dev. Repo: github.com/readyagentsdev/readyagents-core.

Tried it? Open an I-ran-this issue. We are not launching. We are listening.

This repository is the free core. You keep the provider account and the bill. Install with pip install readyagentsdev, or from this clone.

60-second start

Requires Python 3.11–3.14 on Linux, macOS, or Windows. Current version is 2.0.12. Install with pip install readyagentsdev, or from this clone. The 2 versions the core contract only; extras carry their own maturity tiers.

pip install readyagentsdev

readyagents new my-flow readyagents run my-flow/workflow.yaml readyagents runs list

The wheel ships the example workflows too — no clone needed:

readyagents new f --from-example calc_pipeline

readyagents run f/workflow.yaml

readyagents new --list-examples shows all of them.

Or from a clone:

git clone https://github.com/readyagentsdev/readyagents-core.git

cd readyagents-core python -m venv .venv source .venv/bin/activate # Windows: .venv\Scripts\activate pip install -e . readyagents run examples/calc_pipeline.yaml readyagents runs list readyagents doctor

readyagents run examples/calc_pipeline.json is the same graph.

HITL next: docs/first-ten-minutes.md.

What it does

  • Define agent workflows as YAML or JSON (nodes + edges)
  • Run agent, tool, condition, transform, approval, parallel, include, foreach, and decide nodes. Agent nodes may declare a tools: allowlist for a bounded tool-use loop. type: decide is experimental; see docs/decisions.md.
  • Persist after every node and resume a paused or failed run from the last successful node
  • Inspect past runs: readyagents runs list / show / replay / fork / diff / freeze / report (local HTML)
  • Scaffold a starter: readyagents new my-flow (basic, approval, research, pipeline, review, foreach, agent-tools, gated, decide)
  • Builtin tools with zero extra servers: now, calc, json_get, list_dir, read_file, write_file
  • MCP client and server (readyagents mcp serve, readyagents mcp probe) with official tasks and MRTR approvals
  • Policy, spend ledger, budgets and caps: per-node token/cost, --estimate / --max-spend caps, model fallback, JSON logs

Beyond the core, 40+ opt-in extras ship in the same install — teams, studio, browser, knowledge, distillation, registry, environments and more. Each is listed with its maturity tier and its limits in docs/extras.md. None of them is required, and none of them changes how the core behaves.

The agent firewall (taint, tool policy, MCP pinning — security model, policy) is defence in depth, not a solution to prompt injection.
