Quick Start

1. Get your Asana token from Asana Developer Console

2. Add the server to your MCP client:

Claude Desktop

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "asana": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": ["-y", "@blzvi/asana-mcp-server"],
      "env": {
        "ASANA_ACCESS_TOKEN": "your-asana-access-token"
      }
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

claude mcp add asana -e ASANA_ACCESS_TOKEN=<TOKEN> -- npx -y @blzvi/asana-mcp-server

Any MCP-compatible client

This server works with any client that supports the Model Context Protocol:

ASANA_ACCESS_TOKEN=your-token npx -y @blzvi/asana-mcp-server

Install from source (alternative)

git clone https://github.com/BLZvi/asana-mcp-server.git
cd asana-mcp-server
npm install

Then use node build/index.js instead of npx -y @blzvi/asana-mcp-server in the examples above.

18 Prompt Templates

Pre-built workflows that combine API calls with AI reasoning. The AI pre-fetches relevant Asana data, then produces structured analysis or takes action.

Task-level

Prompt	Description
`task-summary`	Pre-fetches task details + comments, generates a status summary
`analyze-task`	Scores how well-defined a task is (0-100) with per-dimension breakdown
`task-completeness`	Fetches a task, identifies gaps, asks clarifying questions, updates the description
`task-breakdown`	Breaks a complex task into well-scoped subtasks
`log-work`	Retro-log work done outside Asana — creates a task and marks it complete

Project-level

Prompt	Description
`project-summary`	Full project status report with task counts, statuses, and open tasks
`status-update`	Polished stakeholder status update (email/Slack-ready)
`project-risks`	Scans for risk signals (overdue, unassigned, empty descriptions) and produces a risk register
`project-onboarding`	"Getting up to speed" brief for someone new to a project
`overdue-triage`	Triages overdue tasks: do now, reschedule, reassign, or drop
`prioritize-backlog`	Guides prioritization of incomplete tasks by section
`team-workload`	Analyzes task distribution across team members to spot imbalances

Personal productivity

Prompt	Description
`my-tasks`	Fetches your incomplete tasks and generates a prioritized daily plan
`standup`	Done/doing/blockers summary from your recent task activity
`weekly-review`	Weekly reflection + plan from completed and open tasks

Planning & creation

Prompt	Description
`sprint-planning`	Plans a sprint from a project's backlog based on team capacity
`sprint-from-confluence`	Fetches a Confluence page and creates corresponding Asana tasks
`create-task`	Guided task creation with clarifying questions

Browsable Resources

Expose Asana data as MCP resources that clients can browse directly:

URI Pattern	Description
`asana://workspace/{gid}`	Workspace details, org info, email domains
`asana://project/{gid}`	Project details, sections, custom fields, dates
`asana://task/{gid}`	Task details, subtasks, custom fields, recent comments

Configuration

Variable	Required	Description
`ASANA_ACCESS_TOKEN`	Yes	Your Asana personal access token
`ASANA_DEFAULT_WORKSPACE_GID`	No	Default workspace GID — tools use this when no workspace is specified
`ASANA_READ_ONLY_MODE`	No	Set to `true` to disable all write operations (great for safe exploration)

Read-Only Mode

Set ASANA_READ_ONLY_MODE=true to restrict the server to read-only operations. All create/update/delete tools and write prompts are automatically hidden. Useful for:

Safely exploring what the server can do before granting write access
Shared environments where you want to prevent accidental changes
Audit and reporting use cases

Roadmap

What's coming next:

Rate limiting / retry — Automatic backoff for Asana's 429 rate limits
Remove dependencies/dependents — Complete dependency management (currently add-only)
Story CRUD — Edit and delete comments (currently read + create)
Duplicate project — Create projects from templates
Test coverage — Unit and integration tests with vitest
