Your agents, outside the app.
Valv runs a local MCP server for the agents you use in a terminal or editor. Connect Claude Code, Codex or Cursor and it can do what Valv's own agent does. It knows your team's definitions, queries your data under the same rules, builds dashboards that open in Valv, and sets up flows.

Everything the Valv agent can do.
Outside agents get the same instructions, tools and memory as the agent inside Valv. Ask Claude Code in your terminal for a dashboard and it opens in the app.

What valv-desktop gives your agent
Works where you work.
One command connects Claude Code or Codex. Cursor, VS Code, and everything else that speaks MCP take a short JSON config. Your agent works in whatever workspace is active in the app.
Your definitions come along.
The server hands your agent the workspace memory, so "MRR" means the same thing in the terminal as in Valv. When the agent learns something new, it suggests a memory and you confirm it in the app.
Policies follow the data.
Every MCP call goes through the same access layer as the app's own agent. A hidden column stays invisible whether the question comes from Valv's chat or from Claude Code in a terminal.
Loopback only.
The server binds to 127.0.0.1 and rejects DNS-rebinding tricks. The app's own runs authenticate with per-turn tokens, so an external client can't impersonate them.
One difference: the queries behind an answer are clickable only in Valv's own chat. In a terminal you see them as tool calls. See dashboards and flows for what the agent can build.
