What it does
The repository holds the Taskade plugin for Claude Code, Codex, Copilot, Gemini CLI and Cursor, the local stdio server `@taskade/mcp-server` and a generator of MCP tools from any OpenAPI spec. The hosted server runs at `https://www.taskade.com/mcp` (Streamable HTTP, OAuth 2.0 with PKCE) and needs no installation. Tools are grouped by area. Read: `list_spaces`, `list_projects`, `get_project`, `list_tasks`, `list_automations`, `get_flow_runs`, `list_agents`. Write: `create_project`, `create_task`, `update_task`, `delete_task`, `assign_task`, `run_flow`, `create_agent`, `prompt_agent` and more. Every tool carries annotations, so Claude runs reads without confirmation and asks before deleting or replacing. The plugin adds seven skills: `getting-started`, `import-spreadsheet`, `fix-my-app`, `app-report`, `backup-my-app`, `plan-new-app` and the `taskade` entry point.
Who it is for. Taskade users who want to run projects, tasks and automations from Claude Code, Cursor or Codex without opening the interface.
Good fit when
- The agent imports a spreadsheet into a Taskade project with the `import-spreadsheet` skill.
- Lays out a sprint plan as tasks with assignees and dates.
- Checks recent runs of an automation and names the step where it failed.
- Backs up a Genesis app to a local folder with `backup-my-app`.
Not a fit when
- The plan is free: MCP access is part of paid plans from Starter and on Free `list_spaces` returns an empty list.
- Creating or publishing a Genesis app is needed: the plugin does not do that and will prepare a request for Taskade EVE.
- Read-only access without deletion risk is needed: the write tools have no separate read-only mode.

Limitations
MCP access is part of paid Taskade plans (Starter and up). The hosted server answers 401 to a request without a token, which is how the client learns where to sign in. Every automation run through `run_flow` is real: it counts toward the plan monthly run limit and AI steps spend credits. The plugin does not create or edit automations, publish apps or set who can use them. The local package (62 tools) is for stdio-only clients and for webhook tools and needs a personal `TASKADE_API_KEY` token from API settings.
How to disable. Remove the connector or taskade entry in the client settings (for the plugin `claude plugin uninstall taskade`) and revoke OAuth access or the token in Taskade settings.
FAQ
How do I connect Taskade to Claude Code?
With `claude plugin marketplace add taskade/mcp` and `claude plugin install taskade@taskade`, then pick taskade in `/mcp` and sign in.
Is a paid plan required?
Yes, MCP is part of paid plans from Starter. On the free plan `list_spaces` returns an empty list.
How do I connect Codex?
With `codex mcp add taskade --url https://www.taskade.com/mcp`, then `codex mcp login taskade`.
What is the OpenAPI generator for?
The `openapi-codegen` package generates MCP tools from any OpenAPI spec, not only Taskade.
How does the local package differ from the hosted server?
The local `@taskade/mcp-server` works over stdio with a personal token, has 62 tools and webhook tools. The hosted server signs in with OAuth and needs no installation.
