The Todoist MCP Server is a Python-based server that allows you to manage your Todoist projects, sections, and tasks through a conversational interface.
Projects: Retrieve all or specific projects, create new projects (with options for color, parent, favorite status, view style), update existing projects, and delete projects.
Sections: Retrieve all or specific sections (optionally filtered by project), create new sections (with name and project ID, optional order), update sections, and delete sections.
Tasks: Retrieve tasks (with filtering options), create new tasks (with extensive options like content, description, project, section, parent, labels, priority, due dates/times, duration, assignee), update tasks, mark tasks as complete or incomplete, and delete tasks.
Provides tools for managing Todoist tasks, projects, and sections, including creating, retrieving, updating, and deleting items through the Todoist REST API.
A Todoist MCP server written in Python, using the Todoist Python API. I first created the server by using Claude to translate this TypeScript Todoist MCP server to Python. I'm gradually changing and adding functionality to suit my workflow as I experiment with using Claude to help with task management.
