You built your business app with Taskade Genesis. Now operate it in plain English: read your records, update fields, mark work done, and flag what needs attention — by talking to Claude (or any AI client) through Workspace MCP.
What you'll need
- Workspace MCP connected to your AI client (one-time setup).
- Your Taskade personal token from https://www.taskade.com/settings/api.
- The link to your Genesis app (the project it's built on).
1. Point your assistant at your app
You don't need to copy any ID out of a URL. Paste your app's link and ask:
"Here's my app:
. Find this project and show me what's inside."
Your assistant resolves the project for you and lists its 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."
"Add a 'priority' field to overdue tasks and set it to High."
4. Let it keep watch
"Flag anything overdue and tell me what needs my attention today."
What this changes — and what it doesn't
This guide uses Workspace MCP, which reads and writes your app's content — the projects, tasks, fields, and records your business runs on.
It does not edit your app's deployed design or layout. To change your app's pages, components, or styles, use the Genesis builder or the Hosted Taskade MCP — which edits your app's code and can also create projects and manage agents. Task-level writes like the ones in this guide (completing tasks, setting due dates) still require Workspace MCP.

- Want to reach Slack, Shopify, or Gmail? Those ship as native integrations you drop into an automation. To call an arbitrary MCP server instead, use the MCP Client connector as a flow step — an agent triggers the flow rather than calling the server itself (why).
