Run Your Live App by Talking to Claude

MCP

Operate your Taskade Genesis business app through Claude or another AI client.

Connect through Workspace MCP or Hosted Taskade MCP.

Then read records, update fields, complete work, and identify items that require attention.

Requirements

  • One MCP connection:
    • Hosted Taskade MCP at https://www.taskade.com/mcp for a remote connection with OAuth sign-in or a Personal Access Token. Requires a workspace on any paid plan.
    • Workspace MCP if you prefer to run the local npm server with TASKADE_API_KEY.
  • For either personal-token setup, create a token at https://www.taskade.com/settings/api.
  • The link to your Taskade Genesis app, which is the project it is built on.

1. Point your assistant at your app

Paste your app link. Your assistant resolves the app from the link, so you do not copy an ID out of the URL.

"Here's my app: . Find this project and show me what's inside."

It then lists the project's contents.

2. Read your business

"Show me every overdue job."

"What's the status of the Johnson project?"

"List this week's new client intakes."

3. Update records and fields

"Mark the Johnson job complete and set the next service date to next Friday."

"Log this invoice against the Acme account."

"Set the priority field on every overdue task to High."

4. Let it keep watch

"Flag anything overdue and tell me what needs my attention today."

What this changes

Both MCP options can read and write your app's content. This content includes projects, tasks, fields, and business records.


Workspace MCP does not edit your app's deployed design or layout.

Use the Genesis builder or Hosted Taskade MCP to edit app source code.

Hosted MCP provides the structured project, task, and agent tools in this guide. Its generic file-writing tool remains restricted to app source files.
