What is the Taskade MCP server?

Taskade Genesis exposes a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that lets Claude Desktop, Cursor, Claude Code, and any MCP-compatible client read and write Taskade workspaces, projects, agents, and automations.

How do I connect Claude Desktop to Taskade?

Add the Taskade MCP server URL to your claude_desktop_config.json under mcpServers, sign in with your Taskade account when prompted, and your workspaces become available as tools inside Claude Desktop.

How does Taskade MCP authentication work?

Taskade MCP uses OAuth 2.0 with PKCE. Clients discover the authorization server via RFC 9728 protected-resource metadata and obtain a bearer token scoped to your Taskade workspaces.

Can I run automation flows from Cursor or Claude Code?

Yes. Any tool exposed by the Taskade MCP server, including running automations, creating projects, and invoking custom agents, is available from any MCP client connected to your Taskade account.
