The Goodday MCP Server enables comprehensive integration with the Goodday project management platform through a complete set of tools for managing projects, tasks, sprints, users, and documents.
Project Management: Retrieve, filter, and create projects with customizable templates, settings, colors, owners, and dates. View project details and associated users.
Task Management: Get tasks from projects (including closed tasks and subfolders), retrieve tasks assigned to users or requiring their action, obtain detailed task information with subtasks and metadata, create fully customizable tasks with assignments and priorities, update task statuses, and add comments.
Sprint Management: Fetch tasks from specific sprints and generate comprehensive sprint summaries with task details, status distribution, and key metrics.
User Management: Retrieve organization users and get detailed user information.
Smart Query & Search: Use natural language interface for project management queries, perform semantic search across tasks using VectorDB backend, search for documents within projects, and retrieve full document content.
Integration: Supports OpenWebUI, Claude Desktop, and other MCP-compatible clients with environment variable configuration for API tokens.
Supports loading environment variables from a .env file for configuring the API token needed to authenticate with Goodday.
Provides a workflow for extracting Goodday task data, creating embeddings using Ollama, and storing them in a Qdrant vector database for semantic search functionality.
Used within the n8n workflow to create embeddings for Goodday tasks, enabling semantic search capabilities for the MCP server.
Provides the runtime environment for the MCP server, requiring Python 3.10 or higher for operation.

OpenWebUI Integration
This package also includes an OpenWebUI tool that provides a complete interface for Goodday project management directly in chat interfaces. The OpenWebUI tool includes:
Features
- Project Management: Get projects, project tasks, and project details
- Sprint Management: Get tasks from specific sprints by name/number, comprehensive sprint summaries
- User Management: Get tasks assigned to specific users, user details
- Task Details: Get comprehensive task information including subtasks, custom fields, and metadata

- Smart Query: Natural language interface for common project management requests
- Semantic Search: Search across tasks using VectorDB backend with embeddings
- Document Management: Search project documents and retrieve document content
- Advanced Filtering: Support for archived projects, closed tasks, subfolders, and more
Setup
- Copy
openwebui/goodday_openwebui_complete_tool.py
to your OpenWebUI tools directory - Configure the valves with your API credentials:
api_key
: Your Goodday API tokensearch_url
: Your VectorDB search endpoint (optional)bearer_token
: Bearer token for search API (optional)
Vector Database Setup (Optional)
For semantic search functionality, you can set up a vector database using the provided n8n workflow (openwebui/n8n-workflow-goodday-vectordb.json
). This workflow:
- Fetches all Goodday projects and tasks
- Extracts task messages and content
- Creates embeddings using Ollama
- Stores in Qdrant vector database
- Provides search API endpoint
See openwebui/OPENWEBUI_TOOL_README.md
for detailed usage instructions.
Installation
From PyPI (Recommended)
From Source
Prerequisites
- Python 3.10 or higher
- UV package manager (recommended) or pip
- Goodday API token
Setup with UV
- Install UV (if not already installed):
- Clone and set up the project:
Setup with pip
Configuration
- Set up environment variables:
Create a
.env
file in your project root or export the variable:To get your Goodday API token:- Go to your Goodday organization
- Navigate to Settings → API
- Click the generate button to create a new token
Usage
Running the Server Standalone
If installed from PyPI:
If running from source with UV:
Using with Claude Desktop
- Configure Claude Desktop by editing your configuration file:
- macOS:
~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json
- Windows:
%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json
- macOS:
- Add the server configuration:Option A: If installed from PyPI:Option B: If running from source:
- Restart Claude Desktop to load the new server.
Using with Other MCP Clients
The server communicates via stdio transport and can be integrated with any MCP-compatible client. Refer to the MCP documentation for client-specific integration instructions.
