Claude Desktop Agent Ready ask

How to: Claude Desktop Agent Ready ask

client:Claude Desktop transport:streamable-http tool:ask

Add Agent Ready to Claude Desktop

  1. 01

    Open ~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json and merge this in. Keep any servers already there.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "agent-ready-mcp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "mcp-remote",
        "https://agent-ready.dev/api/v1/mcp"
      ]
    }
  }
}
  1. 02

    Save the file and restart Claude Desktop.

  2. 03

    Ask for something ask does. Claude Desktop lists the server's tools on connect and calls ask itself — you do not invoke it by name.

  3. 04

    If nothing happens, check the server is running and that Agent Ready's identifier in your config matches the one above exactly.

Claude Desktop has no remote transport in its config file, so this bridges through mcp-remote. Restart the app after saving. Claude Desktop docs

Set these first

Agent Ready will not start until these are set, so ask never becomes available.

Same tool, other clients

This list was read from the server itself, by connecting to it and calling tools/list on 24 September 2026. It is what the server actually exposes, not what its listing claims.

Mutating and Read-only are read off each tool's name, not its schema — a hint, not a guarantee. The registry stores tool names only; connect the server for its live schemas.
