Signal not Noise

What Signal not Noise MCP server does

Signal not Noise MCP server provides an MCP interface for the Signal not Noise todo app. The app is designed around daily focus rather than an unrestricted backlog: its stated limit is three todos per day. From an MCP client, an agent can inspect the list and create new todos.

This makes the server relevant for workflows where an assistant needs a small, current set of tasks. For example, an agent could read the day’s list before helping plan work, or add a task when the user identifies an action during another conversation. The available material does not describe task completion, deletion, editing, due dates, priorities, projects, history, or search, so those capabilities should not be assumed.

Tools and capabilities

The documented capabilities are:

• View the todo list.
• Add todos.
• Work with the Signal not Noise daily-focus workflow.
• Enforce or operate within a maximum of three todos per day, as described for the app.

The source description says these operations are available from any MCP client. It does not provide formal tool names, input schemas, output formats, error behavior, or details about how the daily limit is reported when a fourth task is requested.

Setup and configuration

The available source identifies the product through its Apple App Store listing and states that MCP clients can view and add todos. It does not include a README, installation commands, package information, transport details, configuration examples, authentication instructions, or environment variables.

As a result, the exact setup process cannot be documented from the supplied material. In particular, it is not possible to determine whether the server runs through a local process, a hosted endpoint, or an app-mediated connection. Developers should verify the installation method and client configuration in the project’s current distribution materials before deployment.

Limitations and notes

The main product constraint is the three-todo daily limit. This is important for agents that may attempt to add several tasks in one interaction: the server or app may reject additions beyond that limit, but the supplied information does not explain the response.

Signal not Noise MCP server should be evaluated as a focused todo-list connection, not assumed to be a complete task-management API. No supported integrations beyond MCP clients are named. Client compatibility is therefore described generically rather than tied to a specific editor or assistant. The absence of a README also means that lifecycle behavior, permissions, synchronization, and data storage are unspecified.

Use the server when viewing the day’s small task set or adding a task is enough. Seek additional documentation before depending on update, removal, scheduling, or multi-list operations.
