A simple Python MCP server for CRUD operations on Kaiten spaces, boards and cards

MCP server

High risk

We rate an entry high when the tool writes to external systems, handles money, production databases or secrets, or runs arbitrary commands. The CLI installs it only with your consent.

Why this level

  • Tools create, update and delete boards and cards in a live Kaiten workspace
  • Board deletion supports a forced mode without extra confirmation
All reasons and checks

Install

In your terminal, with SkillFoxx CLI

npx skillfoxx add mcp/mcp-server-for-kaiten

Detects the agents on your machine, checks the risk and pins the version.

Other ways to install

Assembled automatically, review before installing.

This entry is high risk, so there is no one-click install. Review the code and add the config by hand.

Run in a terminal

claude mcp add --transport stdio --env 'DOMAIN=<DOMAIN value>' --env 'TOKEN=<your TOKEN>' mcp_server_for_kaiten -- uvx src/main.py

Or add to the file .mcp.json, in the project

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "mcp_server_for_kaiten": {
      "command": "uvx",
      "args": [
        "src/main.py"
      ],
      "env": {
        "DOMAIN": "<DOMAIN value>",
        "TOKEN": "<your TOKEN>"
      }
    }
  }
}

If the file already exists, add the server inside the mcpServers key.

You will need: uv

Checked against the repository on Sep 26, 2026, commit 6913923.

Text for your agent

Clone github:drinktea215/mcp_server_for_kaiten, install dependencies with pip install -r requirements.txt, set DOMAIN and TOKEN in .env following .env.example, then run uv run src/main.py and connect it as a local MCP server.

Other ways from the author
pip install -r requirements.txt

After installing dependencies, fill in .env from .env.example (DOMAIN and TOKEN) and run uv run src/main.py.

This is third-party code. Review the repository files before installing.

What it does

The server wraps part of the Kaiten REST API in MCP tools: listing, creating, updating and deleting spaces, boards and cards. Requests to Kaiten go through an async httpx client, and errors are logged to a file. The server works with MCP Inspector for debugging. The Kaiten domain and access token are passed through environment variables.

Who it is for. For small Kaiten teams who want a minimal set of CRUD tools for an agent without extra features.

Good fit when

  • You want a simple wrapper over Kaiten without complex setup
  • You want to create and update boards and cards from an agent chat
  • A local run via uv without any deployment is fine

Not a fit when

  • You need cards with comments, checklists, sprints and backlog analytics
  • You need a ready remote server with auth for a team

Example request

Show all boards in space 123 and create a new card in the first one

Limitations

The project is small and has not been updated in over a year, and it is the author's only repository of this kind. There are few tools: only basic operations on spaces, boards and cards, no comments, checklists or sprints. Board deletion supports a force flag, which can wipe data with no way to undo it.

How to disable. Remove the server from your MCP client config and stop the uv run process.

Security check

  • Tools create, update and delete boards and cards in a live Kaiten workspace
  • Board deletion supports a forced mode without extra confirmation

README in short

The README lists the features: CRUD for spaces, boards (with forced deletion) and cards, async requests via httpx, error logging and MCP Inspector compatibility. The quick start covers installing dependencies, filling in .env from the example, and running with uv run src/main.py.

FAQ

Can I delete a whole board?

Yes, the boards_delete tool accepts a force parameter for forced deletion.

Do I need a separate key per space?

No, one token from .env gives access to every space available to that Kaiten user.
