Standalone MCP Manager
Use MCPManager from @dexto/core/mcp to connect to MCP servers and call their tools, prompts, and resources directly. You do not need a Dexto agent, an LLM, or a Dexto Cloud account.
Dexto Agents as MCP Servers
Any Dexto agent can also act as a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server, enabling external tools like Cursor/Claude Desktop or any MCP client to connect and interact with your Dexto agent.
Using Dexto to group MCP servers
Dexto can operate in MCP Tools Mode, where it acts as a local tool aggregation server that groups MCP servers and re-exposes them all under 1 common MCP server.
Standalone MCP CLI
Use dexto mcp to configure, discover and call MCP servers without an agent, model credentials or Dexto login. Commands use .dexto/mcp.yml in the current directory by default. Supply --config before or after the subcommand to select another MCP-only YAML file. An explicit subcommand option overrides the parent option.
