### Description (declared)

# clickup-rest-mcp

A [Model Context Protocol](https://modelcontextprotocol.io) server (and companion CLI)
for [ClickUp](https://clickup.com), wrapping the ClickUp REST API v2 directly — no
third-party service, no license key.

It exposes ClickUp as discrete MCP tools (`list_workspaces`, `search_tasks`,
`create_task`, …) so an MCP host can grant or gate each operation individually.

## Why this server

ClickUp also hosts an official MCP server at `https://mcp.clickup.com/mcp`.
It uses browser-based OAuth and, at the time of writing, ClickUp documents per-workspace daily call limits on lower plans and does not cover every API area (for example goals and webhooks).
Check [ClickUp's current docs](https://clickup.com/blog/how-to-use-clickup-mcp-server/) before relying on either claim.

This server is the alternative when you need:

- **Headless use** — a personal API token works in bots, CI, and cron where an interactive OAuth sign-in does not.
- **No MCP-side call cap** — only ClickUp's normal REST API rate limit applies.
- **Broad coverage** — 90 tools generated from ClickUp's REST API, including goals, webhooks, views, custom fields, and time tracking.
- **Per-tool gating** — one MCP tool per operation, so your host can allow reads and require confirmation for writes and deletes.

It is an independent project and is not affiliated with ClickUp.

> **Safety:** the token has the full access of its owner, and the server exposes delete operations.
> Gate write and delete tools in your MCP host, and see [SECURITY.md](SECURITY.md).

## Install / run

Published on PyPI as **`clickup-rest-mcp`**; run it with [uv](https://docs.astral.sh/uv/):

```bash
# MCP server (stdio transport)
uvx clickup-rest-mcp

# CLI (same operations, for humans/debugging)
uvx --from clickup-rest-mcp clickup workspaces
```

> The shorter name `clickup-mcp` on PyPI is a different, unrelated project.
> Use `clickup-rest-mcp`, or install from this repository.
