TODO Assistant MCP Server
A simple MCP server for managing TODO tasks. Works with any MCP-compatible client.
Setup
Install Python 3.10+
Install dependencies:
pip install -r requirements.txtRelated MCP server: Backlog MCP Server
Connect to your MCP client
This server uses stdio transport — your MCP client starts and manages the server process automatically.
Add something like this to your client's MCP config (exact location depends on the client):
{
"mcpServers": {
"todo-assistant": {
"command": "python3",
"args": ["/full/path/to/server.py"]
}
}
}Replace /full/path/to/server.py with the actual absolute path.
Where to put this config:
Client | Config location |
Claude Desktop |
|
Cline (VS Code) | MCP Servers section in Cline settings, or |
Other clients | Check your client's docs for MCP server configuration |
After adding the config, restart your client so it picks up the new server.
Tools
Once connected, your AI assistant can use these tools:
Tool | What it does |
| Create a task (title, description, priority) |
| List all/pending/completed tasks |
| Mark a task as done |
| Mark a task as pending |
| Edit a task's title, description, or priority |
| Remove a task |
Just ask your assistant in natural language, e.g. "add a task to buy groceries with high priority" or "show my pending tasks".

Tasks are saved to tasks.json in the server directory.
