---
## Quick Start
> β‘ **Prefer a hosted option?** `https://www.taskade.com/mcp` is the OAuth-protected **[Genesis App MCP](https://github.com/taskade/docs/blob/main/apis-living-system-development/genesis-app-mcp.md)** β a *separate hosted surface* from this Workspace MCP server. See its guide to learn what it does and whether it fits your use case. To read and write your workspace **content** (projects, tasks, agents) as described below, use the Workspace MCP server (this package).
## Which Taskade MCP do I want?
Taskade speaks MCP through three surfaces β this repo is the first one:
| I want to⦠| Use | Where / auth |
|---|---|---|
| Have my AI client **read & write my projects, tasks, agents** | **Workspace MCP** β this repo (`@taskade/mcp-server`) | Local stdio Β· personal token Β· most plans |
| **Edit my published app's code** from my IDE | **[Genesis App MCP](https://github.com/taskade/docs/blob/main/apis-living-system-development/genesis-app-mcp.md)** | Hosted Β· OAuth 2.0 (`https://www.taskade.com/mcp`) Β· Business+ |
| Let my agents **reach Slack / Shopify / Gmail** | **[MCP Connectors](https://github.com/taskade/docs/blob/main/genesis-living-system-builder/genesis/mcp-connectors.md)** | Hosted, in-product |
### 1. Get Your API Key
Go to [Taskade Settings > API](https://www.taskade.com/settings/api) and create a Personal Access Token.
### 2. Claude Desktop
Add to your `claude_desktop_config.json`:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"taskade": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@taskade/mcp-server"],
"env": {
"TASKADE_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
}
}
}
}
```
### 3. Cursor
Add to your Cursor MCP settings:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"taskade": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@taskade/mcp-server"],
"env": {
"TASKADE_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
}
}
}
}
```
### 4. Windsurf
Add to `~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json` (or **Settings β Cascade β MCP β Add Server**):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"taskade": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@taskade/mcp-server"],
"env": {
"TASKADE_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
}
}
}
}
```
### 5. Cline
In VS Code, open the Cline **MCP Servers** panel β **Configure MCP Servers** and add:
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"taskade": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@taskade/mcp-server"],
"env": {
"TASKADE_API_KEY": "your-api-key-here"
}
}
}
}
```
### 6. VS Code
Add a `.vscode/mcp.json` to your workspace (VS Code uses the `servers` key; `${input:β¦}` prompts for your key on first run):
```json
{
"servers": {
"taskade": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@taskade/mcp-server"],
"env": {
"TASKADE_API_KEY": "${input:taskade_api_key}"
}
}
}
}
```
### 7. HTTP / SSE Mode (remote & custom clients)
```bash
TASKADE_API_KEY=your-api-key npx @taskade/mcp-server --http
```
The server starts at `http://localhost:3000` (configure with `PORT` env var). Connect via SSE at `http://localhost:3000/sse?access_token=your-api-key`.

## Why Taskade MCP?
Taskade MCP gives your AI assistant **access to your workspace** β projects, tasks, agents, knowledge bases, templates, and automations (on paid plans; some endpoints such as workspace listing are gated for free accounts). Instead of writing API code, describe what you need in natural language.

```
| What You Say | What Happens |
|-------------|-------------|
| "Show me all overdue tasks" | Reads projects β filters tasks β formats report |
| "Create a support agent trained on our docs" | Creates agent β attaches knowledge β publishes |
| "Set up next week's sprint from our template" | Copies template β populates tasks β assigns team |
| "Summarize yesterday's completed work" | Reads task history β generates standup summary |
### Why MCP Instead of REST API?
| | REST API | MCP Server |
|-|----------|-----------|
| **Setup** | Write HTTP client, handle auth, parse JSON | `npx @taskade/mcp-server` β one command |
| **Interface** | Code against endpoints | Natural language β describe what you need |
| **Chaining** | Manual orchestration | AI chains tools intelligently |
| **Error handling** | Write error handling code | AI interprets errors and retries |
### Why Taskade MCP Over Other MCP Servers?
Taskade is the only MCP server that includes **AI agent management** (create, train, deploy agents), **knowledge base training** (attach docs, projects, media), and **OpenAPI codegen** (generate MCP tools from any API spec). 62 tools across 8 categories.
---
## Agent Recipes
Recipe 1: Daily Standup Summarizer
**Problem:** Team standup notes scattered across Slack, email, and docs.
```
You: "Check my Taskade workspace for yesterday's completed tasks,
summarize them as a standup update, then create today's
priority tasks based on what's still open."
Claude uses:
1. meProjectsGet β find your active projects
2. projectTasksGet β pull tasks from each project
3. taskCreate β create today's priority tasks
Result: A formatted standup summary + fresh task list in Taskade.
```
Recipe 2: Knowledge Base Agent Builder
**Problem:** You have docs scattered across files and need an AI agent trained on them.
```
You: "Create an AI support agent called 'Help Bot' in my
Customer Success folder, train it on our Documentation
project, and publish it publicly."
Claude uses:
1. workspaceFoldersGet β find "Customer Success" folder
2. folderCreateAgent β create "Help Bot" with support instructions
3. agentKnowledgeProjectCreate β attach Documentation project
4. agentPublicAccessEnable β publish with shareable link
Result: Live AI chatbot trained on your docs, ready to embed.
```
Recipe 3: Sprint Planning Automation
**Problem:** Creating sprint projects manually every two weeks.
```
You: "Create a new sprint project from our 'Sprint Template',
name it 'Sprint 2026-W15', move the top 10 backlog
items into it, and assign them to the engineering team."
Claude uses:
1. folderProjectTemplatesGet β find "Sprint Template"
2. projectFromTemplate β create "Sprint 2026-W15"
3. projectTasksGet β get backlog items
4. taskMove β move top 10 tasks to new sprint
5. taskPutAssignees β assign engineering team members
Result: Sprint ready to go, fully populated and assigned.
```
Recipe 4: Competitive Intelligence Agent
**Problem:** You need an agent that monitors competitors and reports findings.
```
You: "Generate an AI agent that researches our top 5 competitors.
Train it on our Competitive Analysis project.
Name it 'Market Intel Agent'."
Claude uses:
1. folderAgentGenerate β generate agent from research prompt
2. agentKnowledgeProjectCreate β connect Competitive Analysis project
3. agentUpdate β refine instructions for research cadence
Result: AI research agent with domain knowledge, ready for briefings.
```
Recipe 5: Client Onboarding Pipeline
**Problem:** Each new client needs the same project structure, tasks, and materials.
```
You: "For our new client Acme Corp: create a project from
the 'Client Onboarding' template, add tasks for
kickoff meeting and SOW review, set due dates for
the next 2 weeks, then share the project link."
Claude uses:
1. projectFromTemplate β create "Acme Corp Onboarding"
2. taskCreate β add kickoff, requirements, SOW tasks
3. taskPutDate β set dates across next 2 weeks
4. projectShareLinkEnable β generate share link
Result: Client onboarding project live and shareable in 30 seconds.
```

## Use Cases
### Project Management with AI
Ask your AI assistant to manage your Taskade workspace:
- "Show me all my projects and their status"
- "Create a new project called Q1 Planning with tasks for each team"
- "Move all overdue tasks to the Backlog project"
- "Set due dates for all tasks in the Sprint project"
### AI Agent Creation
Build and deploy AI agents directly from your editor:
- "Create an AI agent called Customer Support Bot with knowledge from our docs project"
- "Generate an agent for code review using this prompt: ..."
- "Publish my agent publicly and give me the share link"
- "Add our API documentation project as knowledge to the agent"
### Template Workflows
Automate project creation from templates:
- "List all templates in my workspace"
- "Create 5 new client onboarding projects from the Client Template"
- "Copy the Sprint Retrospective project for this week"

- **Privacy** β see the [Taskade Privacy Policy](https://www.taskade.com/privacy).
- **Security & vulnerability reporting** β see [SECURITY.md](https://github.com/taskade/mcp/blob/HEAD/SECURITY.md).
