managed-agent-control

managed-agent-control is an MCP server for Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, Gemini CLI, OpenCode from modus-agendi/managed-agent-control-mcp. Its token cost is not measured, scanned A, original, MIT.

A local server that lets an AI coding agent manage other AI agents. It runs from a Python package and needs an Anthropic API key.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it when your agent needs to start, coordinate, or manage other agents through the managed-agent-control system.
Why use it?
It provides a standard connection for agent-management tasks inside the coding environment, without requiring a separately hosted service.

Security

Grade A, and why

managed-agent-control scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 5d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
