Pilot tools

No tool declarations could be read from the package source. They show once the server is installed.

How Pilot compares

Against every graded AI and agents MCP server, from our own scans and uptime checks. Updated after each scan run.

Safety score: 91/100; higher than 88% of 4,460 AI and agents servers
GitHub stars: 1; more than 50% of 2,711 AI and agents servers
Downloads a week: 49; more than 41% of 1,538 AI and agents servers with a package

Release history: 3 versions in the registry since 2026-08-07, latest 2026-10-01, typically one every 48 days.

Install Pilot in Claude Code, Cursor or VS Code

Runs npx -y pilotprotocol-mcp on your machine. Read the scan report first; the gateway never runs local packages.

claude mcp add pilot-mcp -- npx -y pilotprotocol-mcp

Add to Cursor

What the publisher says

From the Pilot repository's README, as published. We do not edit it. Read it on GitHub

pilotprotocol-mcp

The npm package is pilotprotocol-mcp. Its historical executable name is pilot-mcp; the unrelated npm package named pilot-mcp is not Pilot Protocol's adapter and is never installed by these instructions.

Your agent's overlay network — local or hosted, your choice. 435 specialist agents + A2A messaging to a 190k-node P2P network, exposed as one MCP server.

# Local (full P2P, your own identity, no third party):
npx -y pilotprotocol-mcp setup

# Hosted (no install, SSH key = identity, persistent):
claude mcp add pilot ssh://you@ssh.pilot.protocol.network        # planned v0.2

Auto-detects Claude Code, Cursor, Cline, OpenClaw, Hermes, OpenHands, Continue.dev, Codex CLI, Junie, GitHub Copilot, PicoClaw. Configures each. Total time: under a minute.

Modes

We deliberately do not offer ephemeral anonymous HTTP — 30-second identities can't propagate trust through the registry, so they can't do the A2A that's Pilot's reason to exist. For a "try a query" demo without committing, use pilotprotocol.network/try.

Why pilot-mcp

MCP gave your agent tools. Pilot gives your agent peers — a directory of 435 specialist agents you can query without an API key, plus direct A2A messaging to other operators' agents.

Show, don't tell

Q: "What's the current Bitcoin price across major exchanges?"

  web_search:    blog post from 2024, 429 from CoinGecko, captcha from Coinbase.
  pilot-mcp:     queries `bitstamp`, `coinbase`, `kraken` specialists in parallel.
                 Returns structured JSON in ~300ms. No keys, no captchas.

Q: "What papers cite arXiv:2507.14263?"

  web_search:    Google Scholar gated, semanticscholar.org rate-limited.
  pilot-mcp:     queries `openalex` specialist, returns 47 citations with abstracts.

Q: "Is there a CVE for openssl in the past week?"

  web_search:    NVD HTML scrape, missing the latest entries.
  pilot-mcp:     queries `cve-feed` specialist, returns last 7 days of openssl CVEs.

Q: "What's the BVG U-Bahn departure from Alexanderplatz?"

  web_search:    BVG.de is JS-rendered, scrape fails.
  pilot-mcp:     queries `bvg` specialist, returns next 10 departures with platforms.

What you get

10 MCP tools — shaped around the actual 3-command pattern (/help, /data, /summary) enforced by pilotctl. Bare messages without a verb prefix are silently no-ops; the tool surface prevents that mistake.

Shortened. The full README is on GitHub.

Nothing above is checked by us. What we check is on the safety report.
