### Description (declared)

# Task Crusader MCP

Your AI coding assistant's quest companion - campaign and task management via MCP.

## Overview

Task Crusader is a campaign and task management system designed for AI coding assistants. It provides a Model Context Protocol (MCP) server that enables AI agents like Claude, Cursor, and others to organize work into campaigns (projects) and tasks with:

- **Dependency tracking**: Tasks can depend on other tasks
- **Acceptance criteria**: Define completion requirements for each task
- **Testing strategy**: Document verification approaches for tasks
- **Research & notes**: Capture findings and implementation details
- **Progress monitoring**: Track campaign progress and find actionable tasks
- **Quality hints**: Context-aware guidance for campaign setup and execution
- **Sequential & parallel execution**: Support for both single-agent and multi-agent workflows

## Installation

```bash
pip install task-crusader-mcp
```

Task Crusader installs with all features by default:
- **MCP Server**: Core campaign/task management for AI assistants (63 tools)
- **CLI**: Command-line interface (`crusader` command)
- **TUI**: Terminal user interface (`crusader-tui` command)

Advanced users needing minimal installs can use `pip install --no-deps task-crusader-mcp` and manually specify dependencies.

## Quick Start

### 1. Configure Your AI Assistant

Add to your MCP client configuration (e.g., Claude Desktop `claude_desktop_config.json`):

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "task-crusade": {
      "command": "crusader-mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

Or for Cursor (`.cursor/mcp.json`):

```json
{
  "mcpServers": {
    "task-crusade": {
      "command": "crusader-mcp"
    }
  }
}
```

### 2. Basic Workflow

1. **Create a campaign:**
   ```
   campaign_create(name="My Project")
   ```

2. **Add tasks:**
   ```
   task_create(title="Implement feature", campaign_id="...")
   ```

3. **Add acceptance criteria:**
   ```
   task_acceptance_criteria_add(task_id="...", content="Unit test…
