Coherence ships an official Model Context Protocol server: @coherenceos/mcp-server. It lets MCP-compatible clients — Claude Desktop, Cursor, Cline, Windsurf, VS Code, ChatGPT — read from your workspace and ask its AI agent (Nash) to take action.

Source: github.com/getcoherence/mcp-server · MCP Registry: io.getcoherence/mcp

What you can do

Talk to your agent. The headline tool, chat_with_agent, sends a natural-language request to Nash and returns its reply. Nash has its full internal toolset — sending email, drafting outreach, creating reminders, updating records, posting to social, creating landing pages — all governed by your workspace's approval rules. From Claude Desktop:

"Ask my Coherence agent to draft a follow-up email to the leads I created this week."

"Have Nash check what's on my calendar today and remind me about the most important meeting an hour before."

Read data directly. For raw lookups where you don't want a full agent round-trip, the server exposes fast-path tools: list_modules, list_records, get_record, create_record, update_record, delete_record, plus the outreach CRUD tools. These hit api.getcoherence.io/v1/* directly and return in under a second.

The full tool list

Tool	What it does
`chat_with_agent`	Send a message to a Coherence agent; agent runs its multi-step tool loop and returns its reply
`list_modules`	List CRM modules in the workspace
`list_module_fields`	List fields defined on a module
`list_records`	List records in a module with search + pagination
`get_record`	Get a single record by ID
`create_record`	Create a new record
`update_record`	Update a record's fields
`delete_record`	Soft-delete a record
`list_outreach_items`	List blog articles, LinkedIn posts, emails
`get_outreach_item`	Get a single outreach item (with MDX content)
`create_outreach_item`	Draft a new outreach item
`update_outreach_body`	Update the body of an outreach item
`update_outreach_item`	Update outreach metadata (title, status)

For anything not in this list — sending email, creating reminders, posting to social, creating landing pages, managing approvals — the right move is chat_with_agent. The agent has those tools and will use the right one.

Security & permissions

Authentication is via an API key (sk_live_…) you create in Settings → API Keys in your workspace. Keys inherit the creating user's permissions and can be optionally scoped:

records:read, records:write
collab:read, collab:write
agents:read, agents:write
workspace:read

Approval gates (sendEmail, postToSocial, createLandingPage, etc.) are enforced inside the Coherence platform regardless of which scopes a key holds. An MCP user cannot bypass approval flows that exist for human users.
