mcp-crew — Agent Personas for Claude
Zero API Cost Agent Fleet via MCP. Transform Claude into specialized roles — CEO, CFO, CTO, CMO, PM, Analyst, Support, Creative Director — with domain-specific frameworks, decision models, and memory integration.
Why mcp-crew?
Agent Fleets are expensive. Every agent needs its own LLM API call. mcp-crew takes a different approach:
- Zero extra API cost — Runs within your existing Claude subscription
- Memory-integrated personas — Each persona auto-loads your business context via Nex Memory
- Battle-tested prompts — Extracted from 20+ production agents with domain-specific frameworks
- Works everywhere — Claude Desktop, Claude Code, Cursor, VS Code, any MCP client

3 Workflows
Workflows chain multiple personas for complex tasks:
- Strategy Review — CEO analyzes → CFO evaluates financials → CTO checks feasibility
- Content Pipeline — CMO drafts → Analyst fact-checks → Creative polishes
- Product Launch — Analyst researches → PM writes PRD → CEO decides → CMO plans marketing → CTO reviews tech
Each workflow step uses the full persona prompt with all frameworks and decision models.
Memory Bridge
When connected with StudioMeyer Memory, personas auto-load your business context:
- CFO knows your last pricing decisions and revenue numbers
- CEO knows your strategy and open goals
- Analyst knows your competitor research
- PM knows your feature backlog and user feedback
Custom Personas
Create your own personas via tool or file:
crew_create(
name: "legal",
displayName: "Legal Advisor",
prompt: "You are a Legal Advisor focused on GDPR, contracts...",
tags: ["legal", "compliance"],
memory_queries: ["legal", "contracts"]
)
Custom personas are saved to ~/.mcp-crew/personas/ and loaded instantly.
How It Works
mcp-crew delivers detailed system prompts via MCP. When you activate a persona:
- The persona's full prompt is loaded (role, frameworks, anti-patterns, examples)
- Memory queries are injected (if Nex Memory is connected)
- Business context is appended (if provided)
- Claude adopts the role with full tool access to your other MCP servers
No extra LLM calls. No API keys. Just better prompts.
