Available tools 2

Read directly from the server with tools/list, grouped by what they act on. If a tool disappears, we record the date.

handoff
handoff
Hand a message off to another agent. Cleans and normalizes the payload, stamps it with handoff metadata (id, timestamp, estimated tokens, target agent), and records the handoff. Use this when passing work or context from one agent to the next in a multi-agent pipeline. This is a metered, billable operation.
usage
get_usage_stats
Return this account's total handoff count and the most recent handoffs. Read-only and not billed.

Agent Handoff — questions

Answers built from our own checks of this server.

What can Agent Handoff do?
It exposes 2 tools, read directly from the server on our last check. Among them: get_usage_stats, handoff. The full list with descriptions is on this page — we take it from the server itself via tools/list, not from a README. How MCP servers expose tools in the first place →
Is Agent Handoff working right now?
We send a real MCP handshake every 15 minutes. Over the last 24 hours 91 of 91 checks got a reply (100.0%), average response time 356 ms. The bar chart above shows every period we have measured.
How do I connect Agent Handoff?
Copy the ready config from this page — we generate it for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Codex, Cursor and VS Code, each with the file path that client actually reads. It is a remote server, so there is nothing to install — the client connects to the address.
Does Agent Handoff need an API key?
No. Agent Handoff completed a full MCP handshake with us as an anonymous client and listed its tools without asking for anything. All 2 of them are readable on this page. This is what we observed, not what the docs claim.
How fast is Agent Handoff?
It answers our handshake in 356 ms on average, which is faster than 39% of all working MCP servers we measure. The comparison comes from our own checks across the whole registry, every 15 minutes.
Is Agent Handoff open source?
Yes — written in Python and 0 stars on GitHub. The source link is on this page, so you can read exactly what it does with your data before you connect it.
