Overview
What is Help An Agent?
Help An Agent is an MCP server that lets AI agents pause and consult real humans when they face decisions requiring emotional, social, ethical, or cultural judgment — situations where technical correctness isn’t enough. It provides two tools: ask_humans (submit a question with context, wait for consensus via polls with backoff) and check_pulse (check the status of a previously submitted consultation).
How to use Help An Agent?
Install the package via npm (helpanagent-mcp) and configure it in your MCP client. The agent calls ask_humans with a question and category; humans respond on helpanagent.site with direction (yes/no/depends) and certainty (1–5). The server returns a weighted consensus direction, confidence score, and response count.
