When using AI CLIs/IDEs, agents can drift from your intent. This project gives you a simple way to **intervene** at key moments, review context in a Web UI, and send your latest instructions via `interactive_feedback` so the agent can continue on track.

Works with `Cursor`, `VS Code`, `Claude Code`, `Augment`, `Windsurf`, `Trae`, and more.

## Quick start

1. Install:

```bash
pip install ai-intervention-agent

# or
uv add ai-intervention-agent
```

2. Configure your AI tool to launch the MCP server via `uvx`:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ai-intervention-agent": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": ["ai-intervention-agent"],
      "timeout": 600,
      "autoApprove": ["interactive_feedback"]
    }
  }
}
```

> [!NOTE] > `interactive_feedback` is a **long-running tool**. Some clients have a hard request timeout, so the Web UI provides a countdown + auto re-submit option to keep sessions alive.

<details>
<summary>Prompt snippet (copy/paste)</summary>

```text
- Only ask me through the MCP `ai-intervention-agent` tool; do not ask directly in chat or ask for end-of-task confirmation in chat.
- If a tool call fails, keep asking again through `ai-intervention-agent` instead of making assumptions, until the tool call succeeds.

ai-intervention-agent usage details:

- If requirements are unclear, use `ai-intervention-agent` to ask for clarification with predefined options.
- If there are multiple approaches, use `ai-intervention-agent` to ask instead of deciding unilaterally.
- If a plan/strategy needs to change, use `ai-intervention-agent` to ask instead of deciding unilaterally.
- Before finishing a request, always ask for feedback via `ai-intervention-agent`.
- Do not end the conversation/request unless the user explicitly allows it via `ai-intervention-agent`.
```

## Key features

- **Real-time intervention**: the agent pauses and waits for your input via `interactive_feedback`
- **Web UI**: Markdown, code highlighting, and math rendering
- **Multi-task**: tab switching with independent countdown timers
- **Auto re-submit**: keep sessions alive by auto-submitting at timeout
- **Notifications**: web / sound / system / Bark
- **SSH-friendly**: great with port forwarding

## VS Code extension (optional)
