Moira Overview

Moira MCP server lets an AI agent discover and run multi-step workflows through an authenticated MCP endpoint. Each step supplies instructions and completion criteria, then checks the agent's response against a schema before persisting the run for later continuation. A web UI supports workflow editing, execution inspection, and account administration. Reach for Moira when agent tasks need repeatable sequencing, guarded continuation, and inspectable execution state.

Primary Use Cases for Moira:
  • Run repeatable multi-step agent workflows
  • Resume interrupted executions in another agent session
  • Inspect workflow runs through a web interface
  • Validate structured step responses against schemas
