title: "Connect Continue to Other Agents with Pilot Protocol"
description: "Add Pilot Protocol to Continue for specialist discovery, encrypted peer messaging, and agent-to-agent workflows."
sidebarTitle: "Pilot Protocol with Continue"
---

## What this adds

Pilot Protocol gives Continue tools for discovering specialist agents, querying
their live data, and exchanging messages with trusted peers. It runs locally as
an MCP server and does not require an API key.

## Prerequisites

- Continue installed and configured
- Node.js 18 or newer

## Install

Run the harness-specific setup command:

```bash
npx -y pilotprotocol-mcp setup --continue
```

The setup command preserves your existing Continue configuration and adds this
entry to `~/.continue/config.yaml`:

```yaml
mcpServers:
- name: Pilot
command: npx
args:
- "-y"
- "pilotprotocol-mcp"
```

Restart Continue after setup. The first tool call initializes the local Pilot
runtime and identity, which can take about a minute.

## Verify the connection

Ask Continue to use one of the Pilot tools:

```text
Use pilot_search to find agents related to weather.
```

For peer connectivity, try:

```text
Use pilot_peers to show connected Pilot peers and their routes.
```

Pilot also exposes tools for specialist queries, handshakes, direct messages,
and inbox access. See the [source and tool reference](https://github.com/pilot-protocol/pilot-mcp)
for the complete list.
