Agent Coherence - Stale Write Guard (FS) MCP Server
agent-coherence stops one agent from silently clobbering another's work on a shared plan.md, store key, or memory.json - a vendor-neutral MESI + optimistic-concurrency coordinator for agent state on a single host, with the safety invariants machine-checked in TLA+. It runs locally over stdio via the published package.
People connecting memory tools to Claude, Cursor, VS Code, or another MCP client. The project is written in Python.

01 · Install Agent Coherence - Stale Write Guard (FS)
before you install - you'll need
SWG_ROOT is optional or environment-specific per the README.
Claude Code
claude mcp add cohexa-ai-agent-coherence -- uvx agent-coherence Claude Desktop / Cursor / VS Code - add to config
{
"mcpServers": {
"cohexa-ai-agent-coherence": {
"command": "uvx",
"args": [
"agent-coherence"
]
}
}
} Same JSON for Cursor. For VS Code, rename the top-level key from `mcpServers` to `servers`.

02 · Evidence
Security posture
What to check before giving this server access to your agent - from the registry, GitHub, and our own probes. We don't score safety; we show what's verifiable.
runs as local process (stdio) - runs on your machine with your user's permissions
license no standard license detected - usage rights unclear; check the repo before commercial use
pypi package agent-coherence - check the name against the project README before installing (PyPI has no namespace ownership)
registry namespace io.github.Cohexa-ai is GitHub-verified and matches the repo owner
