About Orkes Conductor MCP Server
Connect your Orkes Conductor cluster to any AI agent and get full visibility into your workflow orchestration layer — definitions, running instances, task states, and execution history.
The Vercel AI SDK gives every Orkes Conductor tool full TypeScript type inference, IDE autocomplete, and compile-time error checking. Connect 6 tools through Vinkius and stream results progressively to React, Svelte, or Vue components. works on Edge Functions, Cloudflare Workers, and any Node.js runtime.
What you can do
- Workflow Definitions — List all registered workflow definitions with versions and descriptions, or inspect a specific workflow's graph schema with tasks, operators, and branching logic
- Task Definitions — List all registered task definitions available for orchestration within your workflows
- Running Instances — List actively running workflow instances filtered by workflow name to monitor what's currently executing
- Execution Details — Get deep state details for any workflow execution including input/output mappings, task-by-task trace histories, and exceptions
- Workflow Search — Search across all workflow executions using Elasticsearch queries, filtering by status, correlation ID, or workflow type
The Orkes Conductor MCP Server exposes 6 tools through the Vinkius. Connect it to Vercel AI SDK in under two minutes — no API keys to rotate, no infrastructure to provision, no vendor lock-in. Your configuration, your data, your control.
