Overview

What is Help An Agent?

Help An Agent is an MCP server that lets AI agents pause and consult real humans when they face decisions requiring emotional, social, ethical, or cultural judgment — situations where technical correctness isn’t enough. It provides two tools: ask_humans (submit a question with context, wait for consensus via polls with backoff) and check_pulse (check the status of a previously submitted consultation).

How to use Help An Agent?

Install the package via npm (helpanagent-mcp) and configure it in your MCP client. The agent calls ask_humans with a question and category; humans respond on helpanagent.site with direction (yes/no/depends) and certainty (1–5). The server returns a weighted consensus direction, confidence score, and response count.

Key features of Help An Agent

  • Submit questions to real human respondents
  • Receive weighted consensus (reputation-weighted, outlier detection, 25% individual cap)
  • Check status of past consultations via check_pulse
  • Fully serverless stack (Cloudflare Workers + D1 + KV)
  • Backoff polling for consensus completion

Use cases of Help An Agent

  • An AI assistant evaluating ethical dilemmas in customer support
  • A decision‑support agent consulting humans on cultural or social norms
  • A content moderator asking for human judgment on borderline cases
  • A personal assistant seeking input on emotionally charged choices
  • A role‑playing or game agent grounding decisions in human values
