# no_human

An MCP server that files a task with your local nohuman and reports back on it. Useful when you want to drive no_human from inside your agent.

## What it does

It runs over stdio and exposes two tools: `taskadd` to file a task with your local nohuman, and `task_status` to check where that task stands. The server sits on top of an existing no_human install rather than bundling the engine.

It launches as `uvx no-human`, so `uv` has to be on your `PATH`. Without it the process never starts and your agent sees no tools at all — check that first.

Everything else lives in no_human's own config: token, first repo, and the rest go through `nh init`. The MCP server just moves tasks in and status out.

## Requirements
- Needs: Python and uv (commands run via uvx)

## Install

### Claude Code (native platform)

**Platform CLI**
```bash
claude mcp add no-human -- uvx no-human
```
uvx runs the command named after the package; if the README names another one, use uvx --from no-human <command>

### Codex

**Platform CLI**
```bash
codex mcp add no-human -- uvx no-human
```
uvx runs the command named after the package; if the README names another one, use uvx --from no-human <command>

### Cursor

**Config file**
File `.cursor/mcp.json`:
```json
{
    "mcpServers": {
        "no-human": {
            "command": "uvx",
            "args": [
                "no-human"
            ]
        }
    }
}
```
uvx runs the command named after the package; if the README names another one, use uvx --from no-human <command>

### GitHub Copilot

**Config file**
File `.vscode/mcp.json`:
```json
{
    "servers": {
        "no-human": {
            "type": "stdio",
            "command": "uvx",
            "args": [
                "no-human"
            ]
        }
    }
}
```
uvx runs the command named after the package; if the README names another one, use uvx --from no-human <command>

### Gemini CLI

**Platform CLI**
```bash
gemini mcp add no-human uvx no-human
```
uvx runs the command named after the package; if the README names another one, use uvx --from no-human <command>

## When to use it
- file a no_human task without leaving the chat
- see which stage a task is stuck at
- hand a ticket to the local engine from the editor
- check a task's status without opening the board
- wire an agent to local nohuman over stdio

## Example prompts
- File a no_human task: fix the failing test in `tests/test_api.py`
- Show me the status of the task I just created
- Add a no_human task to refactor `auth.py`
