Overview

Description from the maker (original English)

MCP-native workflow engine: teach agents your processes once, they execute them consistently.

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).
  • You fill in yourself: PROGI_DB_PATH

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": {
    "progi": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "progi"
      ],
      "env": {
        "PROGI_DB_PATH": "your-value"
      }
    }
  }
}

Run this in your terminal

claude mcp add progi --env PROGI_DB_PATH=your-value -- uvx progi

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": {
    "progi": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "progi"
      ],
      "env": {
        "PROGI_DB_PATH": "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": {
    "progi": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "progi"
      ],
      "env": {
        "PROGI_DB_PATH": "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

  • PROGI_DB_PATH env
    Custom path for the Progi SQLite database file

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 Progi 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 (0.3.2) reached the registry 5 months 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?

Progi - MCP-native Workflow Engine

Progi teaches your agent how you like to get things done. So you can do your best work without re-explaining your process or losing context between sessions.


Get started

Add Progi to your MCP client config (GH Copilot / Cursor / Claude Code / etc):

{

"mcpServers": { "progi": { "command": "uvx", "args": ["progi"] } } }

Progi Monitoring starts automatically at http://127.0.0.1:8000.

If you want to start Monitoring on a different port:

{

"mcpServers": { "progi": { "command": "uvx", "args": ["progi"], "env": { "PROGI_WEB_PORT": "8080" } } } }


How it works

1. Describe your workflow

*"Hey Progi, help me create workflow for creating integrations, reviewing code, and publishing PRs."*

Describe your process in plain language. You can be detailed or just provide a rough idea. Progi stores it as a structured workflow with per-step playbooks.

2. Run tasks, stay in the loop

*"Hey Progi, start a new task, we need to review a new docs PR in the repo."* Your agent loads the workflow, works through each step using your playbooks, and loops you in at critical checkpoints to review output.

3. Monitor progress

Progi Monitoring gives you a live view of every running and completed task — status, progress, and the full output history across all your workflows.

4. Optimize as you go

Tweak playbooks in Progi Monitoring between runs. Because workflows live in a database and survive context resets, every future task picks up your changes automatically — your process gets sharper with each iteration.


MCP Tools

Work loop
ToolDescription
create_taskCreate a new task under a given workflow (status todo); returns a preview of its first step
list_tasksList tasks, optionally filtered by status and/or workflow
start_or_continue_taskMain work-loop entry point — starts or resumes a task and returns the current step's playbook, input data, and output spec
update_progress_notesOverwrite a task's progress notes (mid-step save point)
finish_stepMark the current step complete, store its output, and advance to the next step (or mark done)
Workflow authoring
ToolDescription
get_process_skeleton_promptReturn the Pass 1 system prompt for turning a plain-language description into a structured workflow skeleton
get_playbook_authoring_promptReturn the Pass 2 system prompt for authoring a step's playbook (injects workflow context)
save_workflowPersist a new workflow, its steps, and playbooks
list_workflowsReturn all workflows with their ordered steps

Authoring is two passes: Pass 1 turns a plain-language description into a structured skeleton; Pass 2 authors each step's playbook. save_workflow persists both.
