# MCP server

> Kick off and orchestrate Niteshift tasks from any other MCP-enabled agent.

Niteshift provides an MCP server that allows your external agent to:

* start new tasks
* read task transcripts
* send follow up prompts
* manage Niteshift [Automations](/automations)

To enable locally in claude/codex:

```bash theme={"dark"}
claude mcp add --transport http niteshift https://mcp.niteshift.dev/unstable
```

```bash theme={"dark"}
codex mcp add niteshift --url https://mcp.niteshift.dev/unstable
```

The Niteshift MCP server supports
[Dynamic Client Registration](https://oauth.net/2/dynamic-client-registration/), so you can use it
from any MCP client or write your own.

The Niteshift MCP is available to all agents running as Niteshift tasks. You can toggle this feature
on/off in Settings > Workflow & notifications > Task orchestration. Try telling your agents to kick
off a Niteshift task, or delegate some work to a Niteshift task with a different harness or model.
