delega-mcp

MCP server for Delega — task infrastructure for AI agents.

Connect any MCP-compatible client (Claude Code, Cursor, Codex, etc.) to your Delega instance and manage tasks, projects, and agents through natural language.

Install

bash

npm install -g @delega-dev/mcp

Configure

Add to your MCP client config (e.g. Claude Code claude_code_config.json):

json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "delega": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@delega-dev/mcp"],
      "env": {
        "DELEGA_API_URL": "http://127.0.0.1:18890",
        "DELEGA_AGENT_KEY": "dlg_your_agent_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

Environment Variables

Variable	Default	Description
`DELEGA_API_URL`	`http://127.0.0.1:18890`	Delega API endpoint
`DELEGA_AGENT_KEY`	(none)	Agent API key for authenticated requests
`DELEGA_REVEAL_AGENT_KEYS`	`0`	⚠️ Development only. Set to `1` to print full API keys in tool output. Never enable in production: a prompt-injected agent could exfiltrate keys from `create_agent` or `list_agents` responses.

For the hosted tier, use https://api.delega.dev as the URL.

Security Notes

Non-local DELEGA_API_URL values must use https://.
Agent keys are passed through environment variables rather than command-line arguments, which avoids process-list leakage.
MCP tool output redacts full agent API keys by default.
Do not set DELEGA_REVEAL_AGENT_KEYS=1 in production. This flag exists for initial setup only. In production, a prompt-injected agent could exfiltrate keys from create_agent or list_agents tool output. Keys are returned once at creation time; use rotate_agent_key if you need a new one.
