The workflow

What your AI does when <the thing arrives>.

Your agent handles the heavy lifting of checking statuses and executing stops.

  1. Identify active tasks

    The AI scans your Lindy account to find every task currently in progress.

    list_runs

  2. Verify task status

    Once you find a specific run, the AI looks up its exact state and current progress.

    get_run

  3. Stop a loop

    If a task is stuck or wasting resources, the AI sends a command to kill that specific run.

    cancel_run

  4. Confirm termination

    The AI checks the run status again to ensure the process actually stopped.

    get_run

FAQ

How the monitoring works

  • 01

    Can the AI delete my agent's history?

    No. The tools only allow for listing, getting, and canceling runs. It cannot delete data or history.

  • 02

    Can I use this to change the agent's instructions?

    No. This MCP is strictly for monitoring and stopping runs. It cannot modify how an agent is configured.

  • 03

    How do I stop an agent that is stuck in a loop?

    You can tell your AI to cancel the specific run using the cancel tool.

  • 04

    Can the AI see all my Lindy data?

    The AI only sees the run data provided by the specific tools you authorize it to use.

  • 05

    Will the AI automatically stop a run if it takes too long?

    No. You must tell the AI to check the status and then decide to cancel the run yourself.
