Maito MCP Server
Official# @maito-app/mcp-server
MCP server for [Maito](https://maito.ai) — connect Claude Desktop, Cursor, Zed,
or any MCP client to your Maito workspace (boards, cards, notes, journal).
```bash
npx -y @maito-app/mcp-server --url https://maito.romankov.dev --token <your-token>
```
Get a token from the Maito web app (Sidebar → **Connect AI**) or from the
mobile MoreView → **Подключить AI** sheet.
## Tools
| Tool | What it does |
|------|--------------|
| `list_spaces` | Returns spaces, boards, columns. |
| `create_card` | Creates a card in a column. |
| `update_card` | Updates fields on an existing card. |
| `archive_card` | Moves card to archive. |
| `search_notes` | Full-text search across notes. |
| `get_note` | Fetches a note by id. |
| `today_plan` | Returns today's overdue + due-today + week-ahead snapshot. |
## Claude Desktop config
Merge into `~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json`
(macOS) or `%APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json` (Windows):
```json
{
"mcpServers": {
"maito": {
"command": "npx",
"args": ["-y", "@maito-app/mcp-server", "--url", "https://maito.romankov.dev", "--token", "<your-token>"]
}
}
}
```
Restart Claude Desktop.
## Cursor
Settings → MCP → Add Server, paste the same JSON.
## Self-hosted Maito
Replace `https://maito.romankov.dev` with your URL. The MCP server only needs
`--url` + `--token`; nothing else.
## Develop
```bash
npm install
npm run build
npm test # spawns server via stdio against a live backend
```
`tests/integration.test.ts` requires `MAITO_URL` env var.
## Security
MCP tokens are JWTs scoped `mcp` with a 10-year TTL. They grant the same
access as your normal login. Don't commit them, don't share them.

Scored across 21 tools
Each tool targets a distinct action and resource, with clear descriptions that prevent confusion. For example, add_journal_entry is specifically for journal entries on cards, while create_note is for standalone notes.
All tool names follow a consistent verb_noun pattern using lowercase with underscores, such as list_boards, create_card, and archive_card. This makes the API predictable and easy to navigate.
With 21 tools, the server covers the core operations for a project management system but is slightly above the typical 3-15 range. However, each tool serves a clear purpose and the count is not excessive.
The tool set covers create, read, list, search, and some update/archive operations, but notable gaps include missing update and delete tools for boards, columns, spaces, and notes. This leaves some lifecycle management incomplete.
