Agents can use the Conductor MCP to create and manage workspaces, read sessions, and more. All cloud workspaces have the MCP pre-installed, but you can add the MCP anywhere you run your agents.\nTry asking your agent to:\n“Review my workspace diff and leave inline comments.”\n“Address the comments in the Changes panel.”\n“Check why the dev server failed.”\n“Inspect this file on my Mac.”\n“Create another workspace and ask an agent to investigate X.”\nMCP servers configured for cloud workspaces\nWe’ve also added support for cloud MCPs.
