Other tools and scripts

Agentower has built-in hooks for Claude Code, Codex and Cursor. Anything else — another coding agent, a nightly job, your own script — can report its status in one of three ways.

#With the SDK (TypeScript or Python)

npm install agentower or pip install agentower, then:

import { Agentower } from "agentower";

const tower = new Agentower({ tool: "nightly-import", project: "data-pipeline" }); // key from AGENTOWER_KEY
await tower.track("nightly-import", async () => { await importEverything(); });

The SDKs also have adapters for Anthropic's Claude Agent SDK and OpenAI's Agents SDK, and let your agent wait for Allow, Deny or a message given in Agentower. See SDKs.

#With a plain HTTP request

Send an event to POST /v1/events with an ingest key each time something changes: started, working, needs someone, finished its turn, failed, ended.

curl -X POST "https://ingest.agentower.com/v1/events" \
  -H "authorization: Bearer at_live_your_key_here" \
  -H "content-type: application/json" \
  -d '{"tool":"nightly-import","session_id":"run-2026-09-30","project":"data-pipeline","event":"hold","reason":"Needs a person to check the report"}'

That puts a Needs you card on the board under the project data-pipeline, with your reason. The full list of events and fields is in REST events.

#From an MCP client

If the tool speaks MCP, add the Agentower MCP server and it can call report_status itself. The same server lets anyone on the team ask "which of our agents need someone?" from Claude or any MCP client. See MCP server.

#What you get

Agents reported this way appear, update and close on the board like any other. They can be answered from Agentower only when they ask for it themselves — with the SDKs or POST /v1/asks — and they have no token counts unless the tool sends OpenTelemetry.
