Package AI abilities as reusable playbooks
Director lets you group MCP tools, prompts and configuration into playbooks. They are flat YAML files that are easily shared across agents and team members.
So fast, it feels like magic
Start director and create your first playbook in a few seconds. Our 1-click client integrations make it easy to switch context as required.
Context as config
Playbooks are flat YAML files that group the tools, prompts and configuration needed by your agent to perform a workflow.
Fully MCP compliant
Director aggregates MCP servers, tools and prompts. It implements the latest version of the spec and will work out of the box with any client or server.
Strong context management
Control exactly which tools are added to context. Maintain separate playbooks for different tasks and switch between them instantly.
Centralized auth & logging
Director has full OAuth support, and provides fine grained JSON logs that you can pipe into your existing log aggregator.
Cloud ready. CLI, GUI & SDK
Director works in any deployment / management scenario. Run it locally or through Docker. Manage it via YAML config, CLI, GUI or SDK.
How it works
Director is a local first MCP gateway that makes it easy to extend your favorite AI applications and agents capabilities using MCP.
Run the gateway locally
Director's command line interface (CLI) gives you all the tools you need to run the gateway and manage playbooks. It's local-first out of the box, but can easily be connected to a cloud instance for production deployments.
Configure in your browser
The Studio is director's primary management interface. It's packaged as a web app and bundled with the CLI. It's simple, fast and easy to use and provides the same functionality as the CLI, SDK or YAML config.
Re-usable agentic workflows
Director packages sets of tools, prompts and configuration into playbooks which give your agents new abilities. It's plug and play with any MCP enabled client acting as a central orchestration layer for all of your agents and team members.
