Stoory Hire Specialist tools (4, 2 write)

write = sends, deletes, buys or posts
  • cancel_taskwrite actionFree

    Cancels the task, as long as the specialist has not started work yet.

  • create_taskwrite actionFree

    Invites one or more chosen specialists to a project — does NOT charge payment. budget is a single amount for the whole task (not multiplied per specialist) — whoever accepts it does the work for it. Requires user_confirmed=true, set only after the user has explicitly confirmed in the conversation the choice of specialists, the list of shared files and the estimated cost. Estimate budget yourself from the problem's complexity (e.g. 1h = a single well-localized bug / a simple document fix / a minor graphic tweak; 2h = a standard debug across a few files / a draft legal document (e.g. Privacy Policy) / a landing page design; 3h = an architecture review, a full legal package (ToS+Privacy+GDPR) or a compliance audit, full branding, no clear diagnosis) times the specialist's min_rate_per_hour (from search_specialists) — this field is informational, not enforced, always in USD (the only currency on the marketplace).

  • get_taskFree

    Returns the whole task record in one call — use it both to check progress and to read the result. Fields: status, title, desc, budget, deadline, timeline, created, modified; specialist_invited and specialist_accepted (arrays of { id, profile_url } — profile_url is already in the right language, show it to the user as a link, not a bare id); and `files` — URLs of every file attached to the task on Stoory (the client's context files plus whatever the specialist delivers). Call it again when the user asks about progress. create_task already returns attached_files for the files it uploaded.

  • search_specialistsFree

    Searches for specialists in the Stoory marketplace via semantic search. Result quality depends mostly on a well-built `query` — see the `query` field description. If a result has <3 hits or only 'Alternative fit', retry with a simpler/broader query (see `query`) instead of asking the user; only after about 3 failed attempts tell the user you have no one to recommend for these requirements and suggest widening the criteria.

Stoory MCP Server

Hire a human specialist from your AI workspace — without leaving it.

AI can build most of your app. It can't get you GDPR-compliant, review your Stripe integration, design your landing page, or run your SEO. Stoory MCP lets your AI coding assistant find, brief, and hire the right human for that — without you ever opening Upwork, writing a job post, or explaining your problem from scratch.

What it does

growth, operations) with a natural-language query.

  • Search Stoory's marketplace (430+ specializations: dev, legal, design,

budget, and attaches only the files the specialist actually needs — shared by link or uploaded to the task, never your whole repo.

  • Package a task: your AI assistant drafts the title, description, and

visible only to the invited specialist — no repo to create or manage.

  • Hand off safely: files are attached privately to the task on Stoory,

deadline, the invited/accepted specialists, and every file (yours plus whatever the specialist delivers) pulled back into your AI workspace.

  • Track progress: one call returns the whole task — status, budget,

You stay in control of the two decisions that matter — who to hire and what budget to approve. The agent does the rest.

See Tools below for the full list.

Quickstart

Requirements

Desktop, Claude.ai, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code, Codex CLI, Replit, Lovable, ...).

  • Any AI client that supports MCP over Streamable HTTP (Claude Code, Claude
  • A free Stoory client account and API key (below).

1. Get a client API key

Sign up at stoory.io/login?step=register&u=Client(user)), then open MCP Server on the Stoory homepage to generate your clientapi_key.

2. Add the server to your AI client

Pick your client below. The URL is always https://mcp.stoory.io/mcp, the header is always x-api-key, but where you put them differs per client.

Claude Code

claude mcp add --transport http stoory \
  https://mcp.stoory.io/mcp \
  --header "x-api-key: YOUR_API_KEY_HERE"

Or add directly to .mcp.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "stoory": {
      "url": "https://mcp.stoory.io/mcp",
      "headers": { "x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY_HERE" }
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop / Claude.ai

Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector. Paste https://mcp.stoory.io/mcp as the URL, open Request headers, add x-api-key with your key, then click Add.

(Request header auth is currently rolling out at Anthropic. If you don't see a "Request headers" option yet, use Claude Code or another client below in the meantime.)

Cursor

Add to .cursor/mcp.json (project) or ~/.cursor/mcp.json (global):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "stoory": {
      "url": "https://mcp.stoory.io/mcp",
      "headers": { "x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY_HERE" }
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Add to ~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json — note the field is serverUrl, not url:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "stoory": {
      "serverUrl": "https://mcp.stoory.io/mcp",
      "headers": { "x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY_HERE" }
    }
  }
}

VS Code

Add to .vscode/mcp.json — note the root key is servers, not mcpServers, and each entry needs "type": "http":

{
  "servers": {
    "stoory": {
      "type": "http",
      "url": "https://mcp.stoory.io/mcp",
      "headers": { "x-api-key": "YOUR_API_KEY_HERE" }
    }
  }
}

Codex CLI

Add to ~/.codex/config.toml:

[mcp_servers.stoory]
url = "https://mcp.stoory.io/mcp"
http_headers = { "x-api-key" = "YOUR_API_KEY_HERE" }
