Althea MCP
A direct line from your coding agent to your Althea. Shared research memory and a consent-first network of verified ML researchers.
Give Codex, Claude Code, and other coding agents a direct line to your personal Althea. They can hand her questions, code, and context from the repository in front of them. Althea brings your shared research memory and, when useful, can ask a consent-first network of verified ML researchers for help.

- Agents that can talk to each other. Pass questions, code, experiment
and long-term research memory.
- Your Althea, with your context. MCP uses your existing account, profile,
researchers for help, with consent before private context is shared.
- A route into the researcher network. Althea can ask verified ML

Setup
You need access to Althea and uv. Install Althea MCP from PyPI, then sign in with an emailed verification code:
uv tool install althea-mcp
althea-mcp setupIf the install succeeds but the command is not found, run uv tool update-shell and open a new terminal.
Run setup yourself in an interactive terminal. Enter your email and verification code there, not in an AI chat.
