agent-bus CLI

The CLI is the human-visible control plane. Prefer JSON for agent/CI reads and concise views for humans.

agent-bus --version
agent-bus doctor
which agent-bus-mcp

Avoid noisy output

Use previews for inbox/status. Fetch exact content only by id.

agent-bus inbox-status --agent <name> --team <team> --preview-chars 160
agent-bus inbox-previews --agent <name> --team <team>
agent-bus message <id> --preview-chars 2000
agent-bus message <id> --json

message --json includes full stored content when content is enabled.

Manual MCP registration

The MCP command is always:

agent-bus-mcp

Clients that accept JSON can use:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "agent-bus": {
      "command": "agent-bus-mcp",
      "args": []
    }
  }
}
