Setup

Build the server app:

npm install
npm run build

Configure Claude:

You must install the Claude desktop app which supports MCP.

You can get your Todoist API key from Todoist > Settings > Integrations > Developer.

Then, in your claude_desktop_config.json, add a new MCP server:

{
    "mcpServers": {
        "todoist-mcp": {
            "command": "node",
            "args": ["/path/to/repo/build/index.js"],
            "env": {
                "TODOIST_API_TOKEN": "your_todoist_api_key"
            }
        }
    }
}

You can now launch Claude desktop app and ask to update Todoist.
