How do I use Rework MCP Server?

1. Click on "Install Server". 2. Wait a few minutes for the server to deploy. Once ready, it will show a "Started" state. 3. In the chat, type @ followed by the MCP server name and your instructions, e.g., "@Rework MCP Server create a new task to review the project proposal by Friday" That's it! The server will respond to your query, and you can continue using it as needed. Here is a step-by-step guide with screenshots.

Rework MCP Server

Maintenance Version

A Model Context Protocol (MCP) server for integrating Rework platform with AI applications. This server allows AI agents to interact with Rework projects, tasks, workflows, and jobs through a standardized protocol.

🚀 Status Update: v1.1.3 now available with complete project management and workflow support.

Setup

Get your Rework credentials:
- API key from Rework platform settings
- Workspace information from your Rework account
Configure the MCP server with your credentials
Use natural language to manage your projects and workflows!

Installation

Add this entry to your client's MCP settings JSON file:

{ "mcpServers": { "Rework": { "command": "npx", "args": [ "-y", "rework-mcp-server" ], "env": { "REWORK_PROJECT_ACCESS_TOKEN": "", "REWORK_PROJECT_PASSWORD": "", "REWORK_WORKFLOW_ACCESS_TOKEN": "", "REWORK_WORKFLOW_PASSWORD": "", "REWORK_ACCOUNT_ACCESS_TOKEN": "", "REWORK_ACCOUNT_PASSWORD": "" } } } }

Alternatively, you can run the server directly using Node:

node index.js --env REWORK_PROJECT_ACCESS_TOKEN=your-project-access-token --env REWORK_PROJECT_PASSWORD=your-project-password --env REWORK_WORKFLOW_ACCESS_TOKEN=your-workflow-access-token --env REWORK_WORKFLOW_PASSWORD=your-workflow-password --env REWORK_ACCOUNT_ACCESS_TOKEN=your-account-access-token --env REWORK_ACCOUNT_PASSWORD=your-account-password

You can use the DISABLED_TOOLS environment variable to disable specific tools. Provide a comma-separated list of tool names to disable (e.g., create_task,get_tasks).

Disable tools you don't need if you are experiencing issues with the number of tools or any context limitations.

Running with SSE Support

The server can be run in SSE (Server-Sent Events) mode by setting the following environment variables:

{ "mcpServers": { "Rework": { "command": "node", "args": [ "index.js" ], "env": { "REWORK_PROJECT_ACCESS_TOKEN": "your-project-access-token", "REWORK_PROJECT_PASSWORD": "your-project-password", "REWORK_WORKFLOW_ACCESS_TOKEN": "your-workflow-access-token", "REWORK_WORKFLOW_PASSWORD": "your-workflow-password", "REWORK_ACCOUNT_ACCESS_TOKEN": "your-account-access-token", "REWORK_ACCOUNT_PASSWORD": "your-account-password", "ENABLE_SSE": "true", "PORT": "8000" // Optional, defaults to 3000 } } } }

Or via command line:

Docker Deployment

User Management

When creating tasks or jobs, you can assign users using the user_id parameter. Additionally, you need to specify the creator_username to indicate who created the task or job:

{ "name": "🚀 New Feature Implementation", "board_id": "board_123", "content": "Implement the new feature described in the spec", "creator_username": "jane.doe", "user_id": "user_456" }

The user management tools help you find users by name or email and get their IDs for task assignment.

Error Handling

The Rework MCP server provides clear error messages for:

Missing required parameters
Invalid IDs or references
Resources not found
Authentication failures
Permission issues
API errors
Rate limiting

The LOG_LEVEL environment variable can be specified to control the verbosity of server logs. Valid values are trace, debug, info, warn, and error (default). This can also be specified on the command line as: --env LOG_LEVEL=info.

Custom Fields Support

Both task and job creation support custom fields through the custom_fields parameter, which accepts an array of objects with id and value properties:

{ "custom_fields": [ { "id": "custom_field_123", "value": "High Priority" }, { "id": "custom_field_456", "value": true } ] }
