Setting up with Highlight
This MCP is not yet compatible with Highlight’s one-click setup. However, you can still use it with Highlight by following these steps:
- Download and install Highlight from highlightai.com/download
- Navigate to the plugins tab and select "Add Custom Plugin"
-
Configure the plugin with the settings below
Plugin Name
Workflow Commander MCP ServerCommand (node, npx, python, etc.)Please refer to the README for specific instructions on how to obtain API keys or other required environment variables.
- Enable "Start Automatically" if you want the plugin to start when Highlight launches
From the repository
Install via the installer script (curl -fsSL ... | bash) or manually with uv, then configure your MCP client using the workflow-commander CLI (e.g., workflow-commander configure -p cursor) or by adding a JSON configuration (e.g., .cursor/mcp.json). Use commands like bootstrap-rules to deploy workflow guidelines to AI assistants.
Claude Desktop / Cursor
Paste into your MCP client config file to install this server.

}Workflow Commander MCP Server
A powerful MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that provides dynamic YAML-driven workflow guidance for AI coding agents. Features structured development workflows with progression control and decision points.
What This Does
This server guides AI agents through structured, schema-driven development workflows:
- 📋 Dynamic YAML Workflows: Custom workflows defined in YAML with schema-driven execution
- 🔍 Discovery-First: Automatically discovers and selects appropriate workflows based on task
- ⚡ Real-time State: Live workflow state tracking with comprehensive session management
- 🎯 Mandatory Guidance: Authoritative phase-by-phase instructions agents must follow
- 🤖 Agent-Generated Workflows: Unique capability for agents to create custom YAML workflows on-the-fly
Two Workflow Approaches
Built-in Workflow Discovery Process
1. Automatic Discovery - System scans .workflow-commander/workflows/ for available YAML workflows
2. Intelligent Matching - Analyzes task description against workflow capabilities and goals
3. Workflow Selection - Agent chooses the most appropriate workflow from discovered options
4. Immediate Execution - Selected workflow starts with full state management and progression control
This provides instant access to proven workflows for common development patterns - coding, documentation, debugging, and more!
Agent Workflow Generation Process
1. Analyze Task Requirements - Agent understands specific needs
2. Get Creation Guidance - Comprehensive templates and best practices provided
3. Generate Custom YAML - Agent creates workflow tailored to exact requirements
4. Start Execution - Custom workflow runs with full state management
This enables agents to create workflows for any domain - web development, data science, DevOps, research, documentation, testing, and more!
Quick Start
