klanex MCP server

Reliable execution for agent tool calls, as an MCP server.
klanex is an async execution layer between an agent's tool-use intents and real third-party APIs: it schema-gates hallucinated payloads before anything runs, absorbs rate limits and outages with retries/backoff/circuit breakers, encrypts credentials, keeps an audit trail, and reports back via signed webhooks. With this MCP server, an agent submits a call once โ klanex makes sure it lands.
Failures come back written for the model: every error carries an llm_hint telling the agent exactly what to fix (or that klanex is already handling it), so agents self-correct instead of guessing.
Connect (hosted, recommended)
klanex's MCP server is hosted โ no install needed if your client supports HTTP transports:
| Endpoint | Environment | Keys |
|---|
https://api.klanexai.com/mcp | production | klx_live_โฆ |
https://api.sandbox.klanexai.com/mcp | sandbox (free to try) | klx_test_โฆ |
Get an API key at klanexai.com โ sandbox keys are free.
Claude Code
claude mcp add --transport http klanex https://api.klanexai.com/mcp \
--header "X-API-Key: klx_live_..."
Cursor / Windsurf / VS Code (mcp.json)
{
"mcpServers": {
"klanex": {
"url": "https://api.klanexai.com/mcp",
"headers": { "X-API-Key": "klx_live_..." }
}
}
}
Authorization: Bearer klx_... works too, for clients that can only set that header.
Connect (stdio shim)
For clients that only speak stdio (e.g. Claude Desktop), this package proxies stdio to the hosted endpoint:
{
"mcpServers": {
"klanex": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "klanex-mcp"],
"env": { "KLANEX_API_KEY": "klx_live_..." }
}
}
}
The shim routes by key prefix โ klx_test_โฆ keys go to the sandbox automatically. Set KLANEX_MCP_URL to override.
| Tool | What it does |
|---|
execute | Submit an HTTP call for reliable async execution: optional JSON Schema gate, retries/backoff/circuit breakers, idempotency keys, human approval gates, encrypted credentials. wait_seconds blocks up to 55s for the terminal result. |
get_execution | Current status, attempts, target response, or classified error for an execution. |
list_executions | The account's executions, filterable by status/time, paginated. |
replay_execution | Re-run a terminal execution byte-exact โ outage recovery without re-prompting the LLM. |
get_usage | Plan and current-month usage/quota. |
list_connections | Stored credential connections (token vault) to reference via connection_id โ so secrets never pass through model context. |
Why this beats calling APIs directly
- Hallucinated payloads are rejected before they execute โ pass
payload_schema and mismatches return synchronously with a correction hint.
- Transient failures are not the agent's problem โ 429s, timeouts, and 5xxs are retried with backoff behind a circuit breaker; the agent does nothing.
- A network blip can never double-execute a refund โ
idempotency_key makes submits safe to retry.
- Destructive actions can wait for a human โ
requires_approval pauses execution for an approve/reject decision (API, dashboard, or Slack buttons).
- Credentials stay out of model context โ store them once as a connection; klanex injects them at execution time.
