## What it is
An MCP server that wraps the Claude Code CLI in one-shot mode, exposing a single claude_code tool so any MCP client (e.g. Cursor, Claude Desktop) can delegate coding tasks to a Claude Code agent. It bypasses permissions by default with optional native Claude Code permission modes.

## Use cases
- run claude code as an agent inside cursor
- delegate complex multi-step edits to claude code from another mcp client
- give my ide an autonomous coding agent via mcp
- queue coding commands to claude code without burning context
- use claude code as a one-shot subagent
- fix file editing struggles in windsurf with claude code

## When to avoid
- you need an OS-level sandbox or hard file-system boundary
- you need interactive Claude Code permission UI in the active session
- you don't have the Claude Code CLI installed locally
