Claude Wrap Mcp

claude-wrap-mcp

[](https://www.npmjs.com/package/claude-wrap-mcp) [](./LICENSE) [](https://nodejs.org)

An MCP server that lets any MCP-capable agent (Claude Code, Claude Desktop, Cursor, …) spawn and drive Claude Code sessions — effectively turning Claude Code into an orchestratable sub-agent fleet. Built on the claude-wrap library.

Requirements

• Node ≥ 18
• The claude CLI on your PATH (the sessions run real Claude Code).
• claude-wrap pulls the native node-pty

addon, so a prebuilt binary or a C/C++ toolchain is needed at install time.

• Spawning headless sessions works cross-platform; **attaching to visible

windows is Windows-first**.

Install & register

npm install -g claude-wrap-mcp
# then, in Claude Code:
claude mcp add claude-wrap -- claude-wrap-mcp

Or via JSON config (.mcp.json / claude_desktop_config.json):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "claude-wrap": { "command": "npx", "args": ["-y", "claude-wrap-mcp"] }
  }
}

Once published, it's also discoverable in the MCP Registry as io.github.Alex-Kaff/claude-wrap-mcp.

Tools

| Tool | What it does | |---|---| | claude_spawn | Start a headless session in an absolute cwd. Returns a sessionId. | | claude_ask | Send a prompt, wait for idle, return transcript tail + parsed state. Returns status:"busy" on timeout (not an error). | | claude_send | Send raw input (text / line / key) without waiting — for long tasks; then poll. | | claude_status | Parsed state: busy, mode, tokens, pending permission prompt, todos, tool calls. | | claude_snapshot | The rendered transcript lines. | | claude_list | All sessions — in-process (spawned here) and external (discovered windows). | | claude_resolve_permission | approve / deny a pending permission prompt. | | claude_stop | Shut down an in-process session. |

Permission prompts are surfaced, not auto-bypassed: when claude_ask / claude_status report a pending permissionPrompt, resolve it with claude_resolve_permission.

Control models

• In-process (primary): the server owns a claude-wrap ClaudeManager and

drives headless sessions directly — full parsed state and lifecycle.

• External (Windows-first): sessions launched elsewhere (visible windows)

are discovered via the registry and driven over their pipe; parsed operations are delegated to the claude-wrap-inject bin. Best-effort; claude_stop is declined for instances this server did not spawn.

Develop

pnpm install
pnpm --filter claude-wrap-mcp build      # tsup -> dist/ (ESM + .d.ts, shebang on the bin)
pnpm --filter claude-wrap-mcp test       # vitest, in-memory MCP client against fakes
pnpm --filter claude-wrap-mcp inspect    # @modelcontextprotocol/inspector on the built server
