Frequently Asked Questions
What is an MCP server?
MCP stands for Model Context Protocol. It's an open standard that enables AI assistants to connect to systems like databases, tools, and platforms, allowing them to perform actions and access real-time data seamlessly. Moo Tasks exposes each board as its own MCP server, so your AI agent can manage your tasks directly.
How do I connect my AI agent?
To connect your agent to a Moo Tasks board:
- Go to the board you want to manage.
- Click the "Show MCP Config" button in the board settings.
- Copy the generated JSON configuration.
- Paste the configuration into your MCP client's settings file (e.g.,
.claude.jsonfor Claude Code,.cursor/mcp.jsonfor Cursor).
Examples of using agents
Once connected, you can ask your agent to help you manage your tasks:
- "List all high priority tasks on the board."
- "Accept the critical task with ID #123 and start working on it."
- "Post a comment on task #123 explaining that I've completed the implementation."
- "Submit task #123 for review."
