# Overview

> Install Unblocked MCP to enhance your coding agents with organizational context

<Note>
  Unblocked MCP tools are actively evolving. Tools and their descriptions may change over time.
</Note>

Unblocked MCP gives your coding agents access to organizational context they can't get from code alone — pull request history, messaging threads, issue trackers, documentation, and more. One install works across all your tools.

The MCP server is built and shipped by the [Unblocked CLI](/unblocked-cli/cli-overview). The same context is also available as standalone [`context-*` commands](/unblocked-cli/cli-query) you can run directly or wire into scripts and CI.

## Install (macOS)

Run the following command to install Unblocked MCP:

```bash theme={null}
curl -fsSL https://getunblocked.com/install-mcp.sh | bash
```

This will download the Unblocked CLI and configure your supported tools and agents automatically.

<Note>
  The install script is currently supported on macOS only. Windows and Linux users should use the manual install instructions below.
</Note>

The installer auto-detects your supported tools and agents (Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, and others) and configures them all. It also installs [skills](https://github.com/unblocked/skills) — prompt-driven workflows that teach your agents how to best leverage Unblocked.

## Give your agent organizational context

Once installed, your agent can pull in context from PRs, messaging platforms, issue trackers, and documentation. Depending on your agent and its configuration, it may call these tools on its own or when you ask it to use Unblocked.

| Tool               | What it does                                                                                                      |
| ------------------ | ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `context_research` | Multi-source research across code, PRs, docs, issues, and messaging — returns a synthesized answer with citations |
| `context_get_urls` | Fetches the content behind one or more URLs your agent encounters or you provide                                  |
