MCP Server Overview

The Agentled/mcp-server MCP server exposes Agentled workflow orchestration, memory, integrations, and execution controls to MCP clients. It lets agents create workflows incrementally, connect AI, app, code, knowledge, approval, scheduling, branching, looping, and reporting steps, then validate, publish, and run them. A workspace Knowledge Graph can store reusable business context and workflow results across executions. Use it when an agent needs to build or operate multi-step business automations rather than only call an individual API.

Primary Use Cases for MCP Server:
  • Build recurring lead sourcing and qualification workflows
  • Store research, scoring criteria, and results in a Knowledge Graph
  • Publish approval-gated email, content, or outreach workflows
  • Import, validate, version, and migrate workflow definitions
