ClickUp MCP Pro exposes nearly every ClickUp operation as a typed [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) tool — so Claude Code (and any MCP client) can drive your entire workspace: tasks, lists, folders, spaces, docs, chat, goals, sprints, time tracking, custom fields, webhooks, guests and more. When a niche endpoint isn't wrapped, `clickup_raw` reaches the rest of the API directly, giving you **100% coverage**.

## Highlights

- **161 typed tools** across 23 ClickUp domains (v2 + v3 APIs).
- **`clickup_raw` escape hatch** — call any endpoint not yet wrapped. Nothing is out of reach.
- **Readonly mode** (`CLICKUP_READONLY=true`) blocks every write while keeping reads working — safe exploration.
- **Natural-language dates** — `"tomorrow"`, `"in 3 days"`, `"+2h"`, ISO, or epoch ms all work for any date field.
- **Name → ID resolution** — `find_member`, `find_space_by_name`, `find_list_by_name`.
- **Resilient client** — automatic retries with backoff on 429/5xx, `Retry-After` honored, actionable error messages.
- **Bulk operations** with per-item success/error reporting (partial failures never lose the batch).

## Coverage at a glance

| Domain | Tools | Domain | Tools |
|--------|:----:|--------|:----:|
| Workspace / Teams | 6 | Time tracking | 14 |
| Spaces | 5 | Docs (v3) | 8 |
| Folders | 7 | Views | 7 |
| Lists | 9 | Goals & Key Results | 8 |
| Tasks (core) | 11 | Chat (v3) | 18 |
| Tasks (bulk) | 4 | Sprints | 3 |
| Task links & dependencies | 6 | Webhooks | 4 |
| Comments & threads | 10 | User groups | 4 |
| Checklists | 6 | Guests (Enterprise) | 10 |
| Attachments | 2 | Members & resolvers | 5 |
| Tags | 6 | Templates | 2 |
| Custom fields | 6 | **`clickup_raw`** | 1 |

## Install & configure

### 1. Get a ClickUp Personal API Token
ClickUp → **Settings → Apps → API Token** (it starts with `pk_`).

### 2. Add to Claude Code

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "clickup": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "clickup-mcp-pro"],
      "env": {
        "CLICKUP_API_TOKEN": "pk_your_token_here",
        "CLICKUP_TEAM_ID": "9007012345"
      }
    }
  }
}
```

Or, running from source:

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "clickup": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["d:/GitHub/easypanel-mcp/projects/clickup-mcp-pro/dist/index.js"],
      "env": { "CLICKUP_API_TOKEN": "pk_your_token_here" }
    }
  }
}
```

### 3. Claude Desktop
File: `%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json` (Windows) or
`~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json` (macOS) — same `mcpServers` block as above.

## Environment variables

| Variable | Required | Default | Description |
|----------|:-------:|---------|-------------|
| `CLICKUP_API_TOKEN` | ✅ | — | Personal API token (`pk_...`). `CLICKUP_TOKEN` is also accepted. |
| `CLICKUP_TEAM_ID` | — | — | Default Team/Workspace id used when a tool omits `team_id`. |
| `CLICKUP_READONLY` | — | `false` | `true` blocks all writes (reads still work). |
| `CLICKUP_DISABLE_RAW` | — | `false` | `true` hides the `clickup_raw` tool. |
| `CLICKUP_UPLOAD_DIR` | — | — | Restrict `upload_task_attachment(file_path)` to this base directory. |
| `CLICKUP_MAX_UPLOAD_BYTES` | — | `52428800` | Max attachment size (50 MB) for uploads. |
| `CLICKUP_TIMEOUT_MS` | — | `60000` | Per-request timeout. |
| `CLICKUP_MAX_RETRIES` | — | `3` | Max retries on 429/5xx/network errors. |

## Security notes

This server runs locally and acts on behalf of your token, so it's hardened against the usual ways a malicious prompt could abuse a tool call:

- **`upload_task_attachment(url)`** only fetches **HTTPS** URLs and rejects hosts that resolve to private/loopback/link-local addresses (anti-SSRF), following no redirects.
- **`upload_task_attachment(file_path)`** can be confined to a directory with `CLICKUP_UPLOAD_DIR` to prevent arbitrary local-file exfiltration. Uploads are size-capped (`CLICKUP_MAX_UPLOAD_BYTES`). Note: don't place symlinks pointing outside the directory inside `CLICKUP_UPLOAD_DIR`.
- **`clickup_raw`** validates the path (must be a clean relative API path — no scheme, host, `..` or `@`) and is blocked for writes under `CLICKUP_READONLY=true`. Set `CLICKUP_DISABLE_RAW=true` to remove it entirely in untrusted environments.
- The API token is sent only as an auth header and is **never logged** or echoed in error messages.
