Todoist MCP Server

by mikemc

Integrations

  • Provides tools for managing Todoist tasks, projects, and sections, including creating, retrieving, updating, and deleting items through the Todoist REST API.

Todoist MCP Server (Python)

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.
