Task API Server - MCP TypeScript Implementation

Source

A MCP Task Server

Catalog onlyCatalog onlySTDIO

Overview

Task API Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) implementation for a Task Management API written in TypeScript, serving as both a reference implementation and a functional task management server.

To use the Task API Server, clone the repository, install dependencies, set up your environment variables, and run the server in either STDIO or HTTP mode.

  • Task Management Operations: List, create, update, and delete tasks with extensive validation. - Dual Interface Modes: Supports both STDIO for CLI applications and HTTP+SSE for web access. - MCP Protocol Implementation: Complete implementation with error handling and informative messages. - Quality Assurance: Comprehensive test client for validation and automatic server shutdown after tests.
  1. Integrating task management into CLI-based applications.
  2. Building web applications that require task management functionalities.
  3. Creating AI agents that manage tasks through a standardized API.

Add to your AI client

Use these steps to connect Task API Server - MCP TypeScript Implementation in Cursor, Claude, VS Code, and other MCP-compatible apps. The same JSON appears in the Use with menu above for one-click copy.

Cursor

Add this to your .cursor/mcp.json file in your project root, then restart Cursor.

.cursor/mcp.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "task-mcp-server-milkosten": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-task-mcp-server-milkosten"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Desktop

Add this server entry to the mcpServers object in your Claude Desktop config, then restart the app.

~/Library/Application Support/Claude/claude_desktop_config.json (macOS) or %APPDATA%\Claude\claude_desktop_config.json (Windows)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "task-mcp-server-milkosten": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-task-mcp-server-milkosten"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

Add this to your project's .mcp.json file. Claude Code will detect it automatically.

.mcp.json (project root)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "task-mcp-server-milkosten": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-task-mcp-server-milkosten"
      ]
    }
  }
}

VS Code (Copilot)

Add this to your .vscode/mcp.json file. Requires the GitHub Copilot extension with MCP support enabled.

.vscode/mcp.json

{
  "servers": {
    "task-mcp-server-milkosten": {
      "type": "stdio",
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-task-mcp-server-milkosten"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Windsurf

Add this to your Windsurf MCP config file, then restart Windsurf.

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "task-mcp-server-milkosten": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-task-mcp-server-milkosten"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Cline

Open Cline settings, navigate to MCP Servers, and add this server configuration.

Cline MCP Settings (via UI)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "task-mcp-server-milkosten": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-task-mcp-server-milkosten"
      ]
    }
  }
}
