Cloud coding agents with MCP

Every vendor now says MCP. The useful question is which transports survive once the agent leaves your laptop. This page is that matrix.

Rush Cloud is the runtime. MCP belongs to the harness. Rush does not invent a second protocol.

The pattern

Putting MCP config in the repo, not in a laptop dotfile.

Claude web, Cursor Cloud, Amp orbs, and Copilot cloud all drop some user-local MCP. If the server matters, commit it.

Jules is the strictest: a hand-selected allowlist as of 2 February 2026, for security.

Taps out. Codex cloud MCP inside the container is not documented on official pages retrieved this day.

Honest limits

Skip Rush if

  • You wanted a directory of 400 MCP servers. That is not a cloud-runtime page.

FAQ

Questions people actually ask

Does Rush add MCP servers of its own?

No. The harness already speaks MCP. Rush runs the harness.
