What delegation.school is, the three tracks, and how to run the course as the learner's tutor. Background reading.
start_session
Call FIRST. Place or resume a learner: returns their level, completed lessons, and the recommended next lesson. Ask for the learner's EMAIL ADDRESS and pass it as `learner` — emails are stable and unique; a bare name collides across learners and gets mistyped. Pass their real name as `name` for the certificate.
list_lessons
List lessons (slug, title, track, order, summary), optionally filtered to one track.
get_lesson
Get the full markdown of one lesson by slug. Teach from it: lead with the why, then run the exercise with the learner's real work.
complete_lesson
Record a lesson result for a learner AFTER grading its quiz/assignment. passed:true marks it done and advances; passed:false records the attempt without advancing (reteach). Always include a `reflection` when you have one — it's the signal that improves the course.
Ready-to-Paste Client Configurations
Paste either (or both) of these JSON server blocks into your client config file (e.g. claude_desktop_config.json or ~/.cursor/mcp.json).
Delegation School is categorized under Developer Tools and uses a remote streaming HTTP/SSE transport. In contrast, Microsoft Learn MCP belongs to Developer Tools using local stdio subprocess. Select Delegation School when you need capabilities focused on developer tools and Microsoft Learn MCP when you require tools for developer tools.
OPERATOR / Inspectable State: usage snapshot of the whole course — learner count, level mix, completions, per-lesson pass rates, and recent reflections. Requires admin_key. Answers 'what is the state of the work?' for an operator agent.
verify_ticket
OPERATOR (Capital Factory gift shop): validate a reward code (Golden Ticket GT- or Founding Graduate badge FG-) — returns who earned it, the reward, when, and whether it's been redeemed. Pass redeem:true to mark it redeemed at point of redemption. Requires admin_key.
set_level
OPERATOR: reclassify an existing learner's track (scratch | intermediate | power). Routes through the learner's record so the change sticks. Use when a learner was placed wrong — e.g. a scratch enrollee who's really a power operator. Requires admin_key. The learner must have started a session first.
submit_feedback
Send the course team feedback FOR the learner — what's confusing, a bug, an idea, or praise. No grade, no admin key. Use it the moment a learner is stuck or reacts to something, AND always offer it when a session wraps ('anything confusing, or that you wish it did?'). Routes to the team's Slack + the feedback log so friction becomes a signal instead of a 1:1 text.
