Total Supporters GitHub Stars Maintenance

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for integrating ClickUp tasks with AI applications. This server allows AI agents to interact with ClickUp tasks, spaces, lists, and folders through a standardized protocol.

🚀 Status Update: v0.8.2 is released with critical bug fixes! Fixed task assignment feature (Issue #48), updating task due dates (Issue #49), and subtasks in responses (Issue #56). See Release Notes for full details.

Setup

  1. Get your credentials:
  2. Choose either hosted installation (sends webhooks) or NPX installation (downloads to local path and installs dependencies)
  3. Use natural language to manage your workspace!

Smithery Installation (Quick Start)

smithery badge

The server is hosted on Smithery. There, you can preview the available tools or copy the commands to run on your specific client app.

NPX Installation

NPM Version Dependency Status NPM Downloads

Add this entry to your client's MCP settings JSON file:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ClickUp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@taazkareem/clickup-mcp-server@latest"
      ],
      "env": {
        "CLICKUP_API_KEY": "your-api-key",
        "CLICKUP_TEAM_ID": "your-team-id",
        "DOCUMENT_SUPPORT": "true"
      }
    }
  }
}

Or use this npx command:

npx -y @taazkareem/clickup-mcp-server@latest --env CLICKUP_API_KEY=your-api-key --env CLICKUP_TEAM_ID=your-team-id

Obs: if you don't pass "DOCUMENT_SUPPORT": "true", the default is false and document support will not be active.

Additionally, you can use the DISABLED_TOOLS environment variable or --env DISABLED_TOOLS argument to disable specific tools. Provide a comma-separated list of tool names to disable (e.g., create_task,delete_task).

Please disable tools you don't need if you are having issues with the number of tools or any context limitations

Running with HTTP Transport Support

The server supports both modern HTTP Streamable transport (MCP Inspector compatible) and legacy SSE (Server-Sent Events) transport for backwards compatibility.

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "ClickUp": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@taazkareem/clickup-mcp-server@latest"
      ],
      "env": {
        "CLICKUP_API_KEY": "your-api-key",
        "CLICKUP_TEAM_ID": "your-team-id",
        "ENABLE_SSE": "true",
        "PORT": "3231"
      }
    }
  }
}

Endpoints:

  • Primary: http://127.0.0.1:3231/mcp (Streamable HTTP)
  • Legacy: http://127.0.0.1:3231/sse (SSE for backwards compatibility)

Command Line Usage

npx -y @taazkareem/clickup-mcp-server@latest --env CLICKUP_API_KEY=your-api-key --env CLICKUP_TEAM_ID=your-team-id --env ENABLE_SSE=true --env PORT=3231

Available configuration options:

| Option | Description | Default | | ------ | ----------- | ------- | | ENABLE_SSE | Enable the HTTP/SSE transport | false | | PORT | Port for the HTTP server | 3231 | | ENABLE_STDIO | Enable the STDIO transport | true |

n8n Integration

To integrate with n8n:

  1. Start the clickup-mcp-server with SSE enabled
  2. In n8n, add a new "MCP AI Tool" node
  3. Configure the node with:
    • Transport: SSE
    • Server URL: http://localhost:3231 (or your server address)
    • Tools: Select the ClickUp tools you want to use

Example Client

An example SSE client is provided in the examples directory. To run it:

# Start the server with SSE enabled
ENABLE_SSE=true PORT=3231 npx -y @taazkareem/clickup-mcp-server@latest --env CLICKUP_API_KEY=your-api-key --env CLICKUP_TEAM_ID=your-team-id

# In another terminal, run the example client
cd examples
npm install
npm run sse-client

Member Management Tools

When creating or updating tasks, you can assign users using the assignees parameter. The parameter accepts an array of user IDs, emails, or usernames:

Creating tasks with assignees:

{
  "name": "New Task",
  "description": "This is a new task.",
  "assignees": ["jdoe@example.com", "Jane Smith"]  // Emails, usernames, or user IDs
}

Updating task assignees:

{
  "taskId": "abc123",
  "assignees": ["newuser@example.com"]  // Replace existing assignees
}

The member management tools help resolve user references when needed.

Prompts

Not yet implemented and not supported by all client apps. Request a feature for a Prompt implementation that would be most beneficial for your workflow (without it being too specific). Examples:

| Prompt | Purpose | Features | | -------------------------------------------------- | ------------------------- | ----------------------------------------- | | summarize_tasks | Task overview | Status summary, priorities, relationships | | analyze_priorities | Priority optimization | Distribution analysis, sequencing | | generate_description | Task description creation | Objectives, criteria, dependencies |

Error Handling

The server provides clear error messages for:

  • Missing required parameters
  • Invalid IDs or names
  • Items not found
  • Permission issues
  • API errors
  • Rate limiting

The LOG_LEVEL environment variable can be specified to control the verbosity of server logs. Valid values are trace, debug, info, warn, and error (default). This can be also be specified on the command line as, e.g. --env LOG_LEVEL=info.
