Task Graph Mcp
If you're running multiple AI agents on complex work and tired of them stepping on each other or losing track of what they're doing, this gives you structured workflows through MCP tools. You get task hierarchies with phases (explore, implement, review), transition prompts that auto-guide agents between states, quality gates that enforce requirements before moving forward, and coordination primitives like atomic task claiming and advisory file locks. It's built on SQLite with pre-configured topologies for solo work, parallel swarms, specialist relays, or hierarchical delegation. Token tracking and cost accounting are built in. Useful when you need agents to follow a process instead of wandering off or duplicating work.

Task Graph MCP Server
Agent task workflows that actually work.
When you have AI agents working on complex tasks, things go wrong fast. Agents lose context, skip steps, forget to coordinate. Task Graph solves this with structured workflows: phases to guide work, prompts for automatic guidance, gates to enforce quality, and coordination primitives for multi-agent scenarios—all through the Model Context Protocol.
Why Task Graph?
The problem: You've got complex tasks that need structured execution. Maybe a single agent working through phases, or multiple agents coordinating in parallel. Without proper workflows, agents lose track, skip steps, and produce inconsistent results.
