# ClickUp MCP Server Project Brief
## Project Overview
An MCP (Model Context Protocol) server that provides a standardized interface for AI assistants to interact with the ClickUp API, enabling seamless integration between AI systems and ClickUp's project management platform.
## Core Requirements
### Functional Requirements
1. API Integration
- Full integration with ClickUp's API
- Support for all major ClickUp entities (workspaces, spaces, folders, lists, tasks, docs, comments)
- Authentication via API tokens and OAuth
2. MCP Compliance
- Implementation using MCP TypeScript SDK
- Exposure of ClickUp functionality through standardized MCP tools
- Resource-based access to ClickUp data
- Proper error handling and validation
3. Security
- Secure handling of API tokens
- Proper authentication flow
- Protection of sensitive data
### Technical Requirements
1. Architecture
- Modular design with separate clients for different ClickUp entities
- Clear separation of concerns (API clients, tools, resources)
- TypeScript implementation with strong typing
2. Documentation
- Comprehensive tool descriptions
- Clear resource documentation
- Well-documented URI patterns
- Usage examples and guides
3. Testing
- Thorough testing with MCP Test Client
- Verification of all tools and resources
- Error handling validation
## Project Goals
1. Enable AI assistants to:
- Access ClickUp data through standardized interfaces
- Perform ClickUp operations without direct API knowledge
- Handle complex ClickUp workflows efficiently
2. Provide:
- Reliable and stable ClickUp integration
- Clear documentation for AI understanding
- Robust error handling and recovery
3. Ensure:
- High-quality code with TypeScript
- Comprehensive testing coverage
- Maintainable and extensible architecture
## Success Criteria
1. Technical
- All tools properly documented and functional
- All resources correctly exposed with descriptions
- Clean test results from MCP Test Client
- Proper error handling for all operations
2. Integration
- Successful ClickUp API integration
- Proper authentication flows
- Reliable data access and manipulation
3. Documentation
- Clear tool and resource descriptions
- Well-documented usage patterns
- Comprehensive testing guide
## Constraints
1. Technical
- Must use MCP TypeScript SDK
- Must maintain ClickUp API compatibility
- Must handle rate limiting
2. Security
- Must protect API tokens
- Must validate all inputs
- Must handle errors gracefully
3. Documentation
