Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

Share coding-agent sessions with your team: /share in one agent, /pickup in another.

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
  • You need to fill in: RELAY_TOKEN

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).
  • You fill in yourself: RELAY_SERVER, RELAY_TOKEN

Values marked secret are keys to your account. Never share them or paste them into a chat.

You need

  • npmNode.js installed (for the npx 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": {
    "session-relay": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "session-relay",
        "mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "RELAY_SERVER": "your-value",
        "RELAY_TOKEN": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add session-relay --env RELAY_SERVER=your-value --env RELAY_TOKEN=your-value -- npx -y session-relay mcp

Fill in the empty values before running it.

Open in Cursor

Or copy the settings yourself

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

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "session-relay": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "session-relay",
        "mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "RELAY_SERVER": "your-value",
        "RELAY_TOKEN": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

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": {
    "session-relay": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "session-relay",
        "mcp"
      ],
      "env": {
        "RELAY_SERVER": "your-value",
        "RELAY_TOKEN": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

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.

Values you fill in

  • RELAY_SERVER env
    URL of your team's Session Relay server. Optional if you ran relay login.
  • RELAY_TOKEN secret env
    Personal access token (srk_...) from Settings → Tokens. Optional if you ran relay login.

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

What it can do

Common questions

Is Session Relay 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?

You need to fill in: RELAY_TOKEN

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 (0.7.0) reached the registry 12 days ago.

Which apps can use it?

Apps that support MCP, such as Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor and VS Code. You also need Node.js on your computer.

What can I use instead?

session-relay

Share coding-agent sessions with your team across Claude Code, Codex, OpenCode, Gemini CLI, Copilot CLI, Cursor and ZCode. Run /share in one agent; a teammate runs /pickup in whichever agent they use and carries on with the goal, decisions, next steps and recent conversation.

npm install -g session-relay

relay login --server https://relay.your-team.com # approve in the browser relay setup # adds the relay MCP server and /share, /pickup, /live to your agents

Then, in your agent:

/share

/share for bob /pickup /pickup alice's webhook retry work /live # working at the same time: see who's on what, message their session

You need a Session Relay server for your team; see self-hosting. Cloud hosting is coming soon.
