Prerequisites

• Node.js 18+

Setup

1. Get your API key

Go to Account → API → Show API key in your Worksection account.

Only the account owner has access to the admin API key.

2. Install

git clone https://github.com/YOUR_USERNAME/worksection-mcp-server.git
cd worksection-mcp-server
npm install
npm run build

3. Configure

Set environment variables:

export WORKSECTION_URL=https://yourcompany.worksection.com
export WORKSECTION_API_KEY=your_api_key_here

Or create a .env file (see .env.example).

Usage

With Claude Desktop

Add to your claude_desktop_config.json:

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "worksection": {
      "command": "node",
      "args": ["/path/to/worksection-mcp-server/dist/index.js"],
      "env": {
        "WORKSECTION_URL": "https://yourcompany.worksection.com",
        "WORKSECTION_API_KEY": "your_api_key_here"
      }
    }
  }
}

With Claude Code

claude mcp add worksection -- node /path/to/worksection-mcp-server/dist/index.js

Make sure WORKSECTION_URL and WORKSECTION_API_KEY are set in your shell environment.

Direct execution

WORKSECTION_URL=https://yourcompany.worksection.com \
WORKSECTION_API_KEY=your_key \
node dist/index.js

API Rate Limits

Worksection enforces a 1 request per second rate limit. This MCP server automatically handles rate limiting — requests are queued with a minimum 1.1s interval.

Authentication

This server uses the Admin Token authentication method:

• Generates MD5 hash from query parameters + API key

• Provides full access to all account data

• Only the account owner can generate the API key

For OAuth 2.0 support (per-user access), see the Worksection OAuth docs.

Security

• API key is read from environment variables only, never hardcoded

• All inputs are validated with Zod schemas

• The server runs locally via stdio transport — no network exposure

• Worksection API does not allow deletion of projects, tasks, comments, or members via API (safety by design)

Development

npm run dev    # Watch mode (auto-recompile)
npm run build  # One-time build
npm start      # Run the server
