Overview

Asana MCP Server is a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server implementation that allows AI assistants to interact with Asana for managing tasks, projects, and other resources through a standardized protocol.

To use the server, install it globally using npm or run it directly with npx. Set up your Asana credentials in a .env file or provide them via command line before starting the server.

  • Manage Asana tasks through MCP - List projects and sections - Retrieve task comments - Seamless integration with AI assistants
  1. Automating task management in Asana using AI.
  2. Integrating Asana with other applications for enhanced productivity.
  3. Enabling AI assistants to provide insights on project statuses.

Use these steps to connect Asana MCP Server 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": {
    "tiny-asana-mcp-server-bnwebdev": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-tiny-asana-mcp-server-bnwebdev"
      ]
    }
  }
}

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": {
    "tiny-asana-mcp-server-bnwebdev": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-tiny-asana-mcp-server-bnwebdev"
      ]
    }
  }
}

Claude Code

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

.mcp.json (project root)

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tiny-asana-mcp-server-bnwebdev": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [

      ]
    }
  }
}

VS Code (Copilot)

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

.vscode/mcp.json

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

Windsurf

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

~/.codeium/windsurf/mcp_config.json

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "tiny-asana-mcp-server-bnwebdev": {
      "command": "npx",
      "args": [
        "-y",
        "@modelcontextprotocol/server-tiny-asana-mcp-server-bnwebdev"
