Agent Replay MCP

agent-replay-mcp

MCP server for agent session recording and replay — debug non-deterministic agent behavior with session comparison and divergence detection.

Record every action an agent takes, replay sessions step by step, diff two runs to find behavioral regressions, and pinpoint exactly where an agent diverged from expected output.

Install

npx agent-replay-mcp

Claude Desktop

Tools

record_session

Start recording all actions for an agent session.

Param	Type	Default	Description
agent_id	string	required	Unique agent identifier
metadata	object	{}	Optional metadata (task, model, environment)

Returns a session_id for use with other tools.

stop_recording

Stop recording and return a session summary.

Param	Type	Description
session_id	string	Session ID from record_session

Returns: action count, total duration, action type breakdown.

log_action

Log a single action during a recording session.

Param	Type	Default	Description
session_id	string	required	Active session ID
action_type	string	required	Type (tool_call, llm_response, decision, error)
input	any	required	Input to the action
output	any	required	Output from the action
reasoning	string	""	Agent reasoning for this step
duration_ms	number	0	Action duration in milliseconds

replay_session

Replay a recorded session step by step with full action detail.

Param	Type	Description
session_id	string	Session ID to replay

Returns: complete action sequence with timing, reasoning, inputs, and outputs.

compare_sessions

Behavioral diff between two sessions. Aligns actions by step index and highlights differences.

Param	Type	Description
session_id_1	string	First session
session_id_2	string	Second session

Returns: similarity ratio, identical/divergent step counts, first divergence step, and per-step diffs.

find_divergence_point

Find where an agent first deviated from expected output.

Param	Type	Description
session_id	string	Session to analyze
expected_output	any	Expected final output, or array of per-step expected outputs

If expected_output is an array, compares step by step. If a single value, finds the last matching output and flags the next step as the divergence point.

export_session

Export a session for sharing and offline analysis.

Param	Type	Default	Description
session_id	string	required	Session to export
format	string	"json"	"json" or "markdown"

Markdown format produces a readable transcript with step headers, reasoning, and code blocks.

Resources

URI	Description
agent-replay://sessions	All recorded sessions with status and action counts

Usage Pattern

1. record_session — start recording at agent launch
2. For each agent action:
   - log_action — capture input, output, reasoning, timing
3. stop_recording — finalize the session
4. Debug:
   - replay_session — review what happened step by step
   - compare_sessions — diff today's run vs yesterday's
   - find_divergence_point — pinpoint where it went wrong
5. Share:
   - export_session — JSON for tooling, markdown for humans
