Overview

Google Tasks MCP Server is a server that integrates with Google Tasks, allowing users to manage their tasks through a Model Context Protocol (MCP). It enables listing, reading, searching, creating, updating, and deleting tasks seamlessly.

To use the server, you need to create a Google Cloud project, enable the Google Tasks API, configure OAuth consent, and authenticate your application. After setting up, you can interact with the server using various commands to manage your tasks.

  • Search for tasks in Google Tasks - List all tasks with pagination support - Create new tasks with optional details - Update existing tasks with new information - Delete tasks from your task list - Clear completed tasks from a task list
  1. Managing personal task lists efficiently.
  2. Integrating task management into desktop applications.
  3. Automating task updates and deletions through scripts.
