Monitor and manage Harness Delegates via MCP. List delegates and check health status, manage delegate registration tokens (create, revoke, delete), and find which delegates are associated with a token. Use when asked about delegate status, delegate health, delegate connectivity, delegate tokens, or troubleshooting delegate issues. Trigger phrases: delegate status, delegate health, list delegates, delegate token, delegate connectivity, delegate troubleshooting, delegate down.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

# Manage Delegates
Monitor delegate health and manage registration tokens via MCP.
## Instructions
### Step 1: List Delegates
List all delegates in the account to check health and connectivity:
```
Call MCP tool: harness_list
Parameters:
resource_type: "delegate"
```
This returns all delegates with their status, version, connectivity, and last heartbeat. Delegates are account-scoped -- no org/project needed.
### Step 2: List Delegate Tokens
```
Call MCP tool: harness_list
Parameters:
resource_type: "delegate_token"
org_id: "<organization>"
project_id: "<project>"
```
Filter by name or status:
```
Call MCP tool: harness_list
Parameters:
resource_type: "delegate_token"
name: "prod-token"
status: "ACTIVE"
```
### Step 3: Get Token Details
```
Call MCP tool: harness_get
Parameters:
resource_type: "delegate_token"
resource_id: "<token_name>"
org_id: "<organization>"
project_id: "<project>"
```
### Step 4: Create a Token
```
Call MCP tool: harness_create
Parameters:
resource_type: "delegate_token"
org_id: "<organization>"
project_id: "<project>"
body:
name: "prod-delegate-token"
```
### Step 5: Find Delegates for a Token
```

How to install
mdr add harness/harness-skills/manage-delegates@sha256:1d4ec3da70a7a35dThe line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
