Coding agent integrations

Use hydracept-agent-plugin to give coding agents access to Hydracept capabilities, job submission, and result records.

The CLI (python -m hydracept agents install --auto) is the universal local install. Host plugins are also published from the public catalog at github.com/zencodeinc/hydracept-agent-plugins.

What agents can do

Agents can discover available capabilities, submit generation jobs, check progress, and retrieve artifacts and execution records.

> Hydracept gives software and agents external capabilities through one stable execution control plane. Every run leaves a receipt.

Official MCP Registry description (≤100 characters):

> Execution control plane for agents: capabilities, durable jobs, budgets, receipts, and BYOK.

MCP transports

Transport	When to use	Endpoint
Stdio (primary for coding agents)	Git checkout after `hydracept init`	`python -m hydracept mcp serve`
Hosted	No project checkout (ChatGPT, MCP Registry)	`https://api.hydracept.com/mcp`

Stdio authenticates with .hydracept/secrets.json. Do not copy that key into a host plugin Configure UI. Hosted MCP authenticates with Authorization: Bearer <HYDRACEPT_API_KEY> for clients that cannot see the workspace.

Install


python -m hydracept agents install --auto

Host	Install
Plugin homepage	https://hydracept.com/plugin
CLI (all hosts)	`python -m hydracept agents install --auto`
Cursor	Cursor Marketplace listing of `zencodeinc/hydracept-agent-plugins`, or enable `plugins/cursor`
Claude Code	`/plugin marketplace add zencodeinc/hydracept-agent-plugins` then `/plugin install hydracept@hydracept`
MCP Registry	`com.hydracept/mcp` at `https://api.hydracept.com/mcp`

The marketplace name (hydracept) participates in the Claude install command.

Verify the connection

Run python -m hydracept init in your project. This binds project MCP to stdio. Reload MCP once. Do not copy the workspace key into host plugin settings.
Ask the agent to list Hydracept capabilities (hydracept_capabilities).
Run python -m hydracept smoke when you want a paid verification job.

Listing submissions for OpenAI/Codex, ClawHub, VS Code, JetBrains, and the Unity Asset Store are separate publication decisions.
