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: v0.7.2 now available with complete Time Tracking support and Document Management features.
- Get your credentials:
- ClickUp API key from ClickUp Settings
- Team ID from your ClickUp workspace URL
- Choose either hosted installation (sends webhooks) or NPX installation (downloads to local path and installs dependencies)
- Use natural language to manage your workspace!
The server is hosted on Smithery. There, you can preview the available tools or copy the commands to run on your specific client app.
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
