Conductor

One MCP server. Tools for every AI agent.

Conductor is a single Model Context Protocol server that gives any AI agent — Claude, Cursor, Cline, Copilot, and more — access to your tools through one connection. Install once, configure once, use everywhere.

npm install -g @useconductor/conductor
conductor init

Why Conductor

Running one MCP server per tool means one process, one config, and one potential failure per integration. Conductor collapses all of that into a single server with a consistent security layer and one config block in your AI client.

• Single process — GitHub, Docker, shell, databases, and more through one connection
• Encrypted credential storage — secrets encrypted with a machine-derived AES-256-GCM key, never in plain config files
• Circuit breakers + retry on every tool call — failures don't cascade
• SHA-256 chained audit log — every action recorded, tamper-evident
• One config block in your AI client

Quick start

npm install -g @useconductor/conductor
conductor init

Claude Desktop

Add to ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "conductor": {
      "command": "conductor",
      "args": ["mcp", "start"]
    }
  }
}

Or skip the manual editing: conductor mcp setup

Cursor / Windsurf / Cline / Continue

Same config block — drop it into .cursor/mcp.json, .codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json, or your client's MCP config file.

No global install

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "conductor": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@useconductor/conductor", "mcp", "start"]
    }
  }
}
