Thin CLI for Taskade MCP plug-and-play. One command to connect Cursor or Claude to your Taskade workspace.

# 1. Get your token at https://taskade.com/settings/api (looks like tskdp_...)

# 2. Connect Cursor
npx @taskade/cli plug cursor

# 3. Connect Claude
npx @taskade/cli plug claude

# 4. Verify your token works
npx @taskade/cli whoami

This CLI prints the MCP server config block you need to paste into your AI agent client (Cursor, Claude Desktop, Claude Code). It also verifies your Personal Access Token (PAT) works against the Taskade API.

The token is the product. You do not need this CLI to use Taskade MCP - you can copy the config block manually from https://taskade.com/settings/api. This CLI just makes it one command instead of five clicks.

Prints the MCP server config block.

npx @taskade/cli plug cursor   # Cursor format with instructions
npx @taskade/cli plug claude   # Claude Desktop/Code format with instructions
npx @taskade/cli plug          # Raw JSON, no client wrapper

Output (raw JSON):

{
  "mcpServers": {
    "taskade": {
      "url": "https://taskade.com/mcp",
      "headers": {
        "Authorization": "Bearer tskdp_..."
      }
    }
  }
}

Verifies your PAT works against the Taskade API.

npx @taskade/cli whoami

Output:

Token works.
